Cleaning the roller handle and roller arm
Follow these steps only if you 1) used latex materials, 2) and plan on throwing away the pump and hoses.
1. Remove large hose and small air hose from the roller
handle.
2. Open the base door and remove the pump and suction
hose assembly. You can now dispose of the suction
hose, the pump assembly, and the longer paint hose.
3. To disassemble and clean the roller assembly, insert
thumb to first knuckle,
PRY

warm, soapy water and clean by hand.

the roller arm from the roller handle. Place the connecting
areas of each under a sink running with warm water until all
material is flushed out.
