2. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to PRIME ( ).
3. Turn the motor switch to ON.
4. Turn the pressure control knob clockwise to be-
tween half and full pressure. You should be able to
see the paint move through the suction tube to the
pump. Let the unit prime 1 to 2 minutes after paint
begins to flow through the return tube.
CAUTION
Always reduce the pressure to zero before changing
the position of the priming knob. Failure to do so
may cause damage to the paint pump diaphragm.
CAUTION
If the pressure control knob is reduced to zero and
the PRIME/SPRAY knob is still on SPRAY (
) while
the sprayer is operating, there will be high pressure
in the hose and spray gun until the priming knob is
turned to PRIME ( ) or until the spray gun is trig-
gered to relieve the pressure.
The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the
entire surface. This is done by using even strokes. Keep
your arm moving at a constant speed and keep the spray
gun at a constant distance from the surface. The best
spraying distance is 10 to 12 inches between the spray
tip and the surface.
Keep the spray gun at right angles to the surface. This
means moving your entire arm back and forth rather than
just flexing your wrist.

Keep the spray gun perpendicular to the surface, other-
wise one end of the pattern will be thicker than the other.

Right Way
Wrong Way
The spray gun should be triggered by turning it on and off
with each stroke. This will save paint and avoid paint
buildup at the end of the stroke. Do not trigger the gun
during the middle of a stroke. This will result in an
uneven spray and splotchy coverage.
Start the
stroke.
Pull the
trigger.
End the
stroke.
Release the
trigger.
Keep an even,
steady stroke.
Work
Approximately
10 to 12 inches
Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will ensure an
even coating.
When you stop painting, lock the gun safety switch, turn
