Cleaning Procedure
WARNING: High pressure device --
Follow all safety warnings located on
sprayer and in the owner's manual.
Always clean using low pressure,
with the spray tip removed. Always
flush into a separate metal container
away from the sprayer. Never clean
the exterior of the pump while the
pump is plugged in or operating.
PRESSURE RELEASE PROCEDURE:
Step 1:
Engage trigger safety lock on
gun.
Step 2:
Turn off pump and release fluid
pressure by turning the pressure relief
prime valve located on the side of pump
down.
LOW PRESSURE CLEANING PRO-
CEDURE:
Step 3:
Remove tip and let soak clean,
in a small container of solvents or
water. Adjust fluid pressure to lowest
possible setting.
Step 4:
Turn the pump on. Tilt syphon
tube above paint container, allowing the
sprayer to pump itself dry through the
return tube.
Step 5:
Have available container of hot
soapy water if spraying latex (or suit-
able solvent for oil base paints). Do not
clean with mineral spirits if using latex
paint as this will make jelly.
Step 6:
Place syphon tube into contain-
er with hot soapy water or solvents. Let
circulate for 2-3 minutes, then turn unit
off.
Step 7:
To save paint still in spray
hose, turn prime valve up to spray posi-
tion, then carefully trigger gun into and
against side of metal paint container.
Be careful of splashing. When cleaning
solution appears, shut off gun and place
gun in a separate metal container.
Repeat process if spraying with two
guns.
Step 8:
Trigger gun and let cleaning
solution circulate for approximately 2-3
minutes, then turn unit off.
Step 9:
Turn prime valve down and
remove suction tube from cleaning con-
tainer. Turn unit on and allow sprayer to
pump dry.
Step 10:
Take a clean container of
water or solvent and using low pressure
pump through system until clear. If
cleaning with water, pump a small
amount of mineral spirits or TITAN LS-
10 solution through pump. This will
protect against corrosion.
Step 11:
Take suction tube out of con-
tainer and let sprayer run itself dry.
Step 12:
Check filter on pump and gun.
Clean or replace.
Step 13:
Remove spray tip from sol-
vent, clean with a soft bristle brush and
store in a dry place.
