Startup Procedure
WARNING:
High pressure device, thoroughly read and understand the warning section located in the owner's manual and
the label on the sprayer.
IMPORTANT:
Whenever starting or cleaning this sprayer, always reduce engine or motor speed. Additionally, never operate
this sprayer for more than 10 seconds without fluid, this can cause unnecessary wear to the packings.
Do not operate dry.
Step 1:
Before you plug in the power cord to the electrical outlet or start the gas engine, do the following:
A. Tighten suction and return hoses, then install a minimum of 50' (15,2 m) of nylon airless spray hose and airless
gun. Do not install tip yet, or remove if installed.
WARNING:
If you are supplying your own hoses and spray gun, be sure they are electrically grounded and rated for at least
3200 psi (221 bar) working pressure, and that the gun has a tip guard. This is to reduce the risk of serious bodily injury
caused by static sparking and fluid injection or over-pressurization, causing a component rupture.
B. Preset pressure control by turning the pressure control knob counterclockwise to lowest setting.
C. Place on-off switch in the off position.
D. Be sure to fill the Wet Cup 1/3 full with Piston Seal Lubricant.
Step 2: GAS ENGINE
A.
Check the engine oil level.
For instructions refer to the engine manual
supplied.
B.
Fill the gas tank.
Be sure the engine is cool. Refueling a hot engine
could cause a fire. Close the black fuel shut off lever located under the
air cleaner.
Use unleaded high quality gasoline.
C. If a secondary hose and gun is not installed, be sure the plug is secure.
D. Place the suction tube into container containing mineral spirits.
E. Open the fuel shut off lever by pushing it in the direction of the arrow.
F. Move the throttle lever away from fuel tank.
G. Close the engine choke lever, located beneath the air cleaner.
H. Turn the engine switch on. Turn pressure relief prime valve down to
prime position.
I. Pull the starter rope. Holding the frame with one hand, pull the rope
rapidly and firmly. Continue to hold the rope as you let it return. Pull
and return rope until engine starts.
Step 3:
Flush oil out of new paint pump: Oil is used by the factory for testing and protection. It is necessary to flush out with
mineral spirits before you begin to spray.
A. Pour 1/2 gallon mineral spirits into a metal container and insert syphon and return tube.
B. Turn pressure relief prime valve down to prime position and turn unit on. Increase pressure slightly. Let solvent
cycle for approximately 30 seconds. Then tilt syphon tube above container and let the sprayer pump itself dry.
Then turn unit off. If you are going to use water based paints, repeat procedure using water.
Step 4:
Prepare the paint according to manufacturer's recommendations. Remove any skin that may have formed and stir.
Strain the paint through a fine nylon mesh bag to remove particles that could clog spray tip.
Step 5:
Place syphon and return tubes into paint container. Turn pressure relief priming knob, located on side of pump,
down for priming.
Step 6:
Turn sprayer on and turn up pressure slightly. Let circulate on prime until no bubbles filter up through the paint.
Step 7:
Hold gun firmly against a metal container, disengage trigger lock and trigger gun against side of container. Then,
while gun is triggered, turn the pressure relief valve to the spray position. Keep the gun triggered until all the air is
forced out of the system and the paint flows freely. Release the trigger and engage gun safety lock; set gun down
while unit pressurizes.
Step 8:
Check for leaks. If any leaks occur, follow the proper pressure relief procedure before tightening.
Step 9:
Turn off sprayer and relieve pressure by turning pressure relief prime knob to prime.
Step 10:
With gun trigger lock engaged, install tip and guard as instructed in separate tip or gun manual.
Step 11:
Turn sprayer on and rotate the pressure relief prime valve to the spray position.
Step 12:
Test on cardboard to check spray pattern. Adjust pressure just until the spray from gun is completely atomized.
