Painting; Control Panel Indicators - Titan IMPACT 1040 Notice D'utilisation

Painting

1. Place the siphon tube into a container of paint.
2. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
3. Set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure control
knob to the "MIN" setting.
4. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to the PRIME position.
5. Turn on the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the ON
position.
6. Allow the sprayer to run until paint is coming through the
return hose into the metal waste container.
7. Turn off the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position.
8. Remove the return hose from the waste container and place it
in its operating position above the container of paint.
9. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to the SPRAY position.
10. Turn on the sprayer.
11. Unlock the gun by pushing the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
Ground the gun by holding it against the edge of the
metal container while flushing. Failure to do so may
lead to a static electric discharge, which may cause a
fire.
12. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until all air and
solvent is flushed from the spray hose and paint is flowing
freely from the gun.
13. Lock the gun by pushing the gun trigger lock to the locked
position.
14. Turn off the sprayer.
15. Attach tip guard and tip to the gun as instructed by the tip
guard or tip manuals.
POSSIBLE INjEcTION HaZarD. Do not spray without
the tip guard in place. Never trigger the gun unless
the tip is in either the spray or the unclog position.
always engage the gun trigger lock before removing,
replacing or cleaning tip.
16. Turn on the sprayer.
17. Increase the pressure by turning the pressure control knob
slowly clockwise and test the spray pattern on a piece of
cardboard. Adjust the pressure control knob until the
spray from the gun is completely atomized. Try to keep the
pressure control knob at the lowest setting that maintains
good atomization.
NOTE: Turning the pressure up higher than needed to
atomize the paint will cause premature tip wear and
additional overspray.

control Panel Indicators

The following is a description of the control panel indicators.

Pressure Indicator
The pressure indicator shows the current operating pressure of the
sprayer. It has three different indications: blinking yellow, solid
yellow, and solid green.
Blinking yellow
When the pressure indicator is blinking yellow, the sprayer is
operating between 0 and 200 PSI. A blinking yellow pressure
indicator means:
• The sprayer is plugged in and turned "ON"
• The sprayer is at priming pressure (little or no pressure)
• It is safe to move the PRIME/SPRAY valve between positions
• It is safe to change or replace the spray tip
NOTE: If the pressure indicator begins blinking yellow
when the pressure control knob is set at a higher
pressure and the PrImE/SPray valve is in the
SPray position, either the spray tip is worn or the
sprayer is in need of service/repair.
Solid yellow
When the pressure indicator is solid yellow, the sprayer is operating
between 201 and 1900 PSI. A solid yellow pressure indicator means:
• The sprayer is at the proper pressure setting for spraying stain,
lacquer, varnish, and multi-colors
• If the pressure indicator goes to solid yellow when the
pressure is set so that it starts at solid green, it indicates one of
the following:
a. Tip wear Indicator — when spraying with latex or at high pressure
the solid yellow appears. This means the tip is worn and needs to
be replaced.
b. Tip Too Large — when a tip that is too large for the sprayer is put
in the gun, the pressure indicator will turn from solid green to solid
yellow.
c. Fluid Section wear — if a solid yellow pressure indicator appears
when using a new tip and the pressure is set at maximum, service
may be required (worn packings, worn piston, stuck valve, etc...).
Solid Green
When the pressure indicator is solid green, the sprayer is operating
between 1901 and 3300 PSI. A solid green pressure indicator means:
• The sprayer is at the proper pressure setting for spraying oil-
based and latex house paints
• The sprayer is operating at peak performance at a high
pressure setting
motor running Indicator
The Motor Running indicator is on when the motor is commanded to
run. This indicator is used by service centers to troubleshoot motor
problems.
NOTE: If the motor running and pressure indicators blink
alternately, it means the motor has overheated. Turn
pump OFF and allow to cool.
