Preparing to Paint

Before painting, it is important to make sure that the fluid in the
system is compatible with the paint that is going to be used.
NOTE: Incompatible fluids and paint may cause the
valves to become stuck closed, which would
require disassembly and cleaning of the
sprayer's fluid section.
IMPORTANT: Always keep the trigger lock on the spray
gun in the locked position while preparing the system.
1. Place the suction tube into a container of the appropriate
solvent. Examples of the appropriate solvent are water for
latex paint or mineral spirits for oil-based paints.
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 in the yellow zone.
4. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to
the PRIME position.
5. Turn the unit on by moving the ON/OFF
switch to the ON position.
6. Allow the sprayer to run for 15–30 seconds to flush the old
solvent out through the return hose and into the metal
waste container.
7. Turn the unit off by moving the ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position.
NOTE: Make sure that the spray gun does not have a
tip or tip guard installed.
8. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to the SPRAY position.
9. Turn the unit on.
10. Unlock the gun by turning 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.
11. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until the old
solvent is gone and fresh solvent is coming out of the gun.
12. Lock the gun by turning the gun
trigger lock to the locked position.
13. Set down the gun and increase the
pressure by turning the pressure
control knob slowly clockwise into
the green zone.
14. Check the entire system for leaks.
If leaks occur, follow the "Pressure
Relief Procedure" in this manual before tightening any
fittings or hoses.
15. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" in this manual
before changing from solvent to paint.
Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure
when shutting down the sprayer for any purpose,
including servicing or adjusting any part of the
spray system, changing or cleaning spray tips, or
preparing for cleanup.

Electronic Pressure Control Indicators

The following is a description of the indicators on the electronic
pressure control.
Blinking Yellow =
0 PSI – priming pressure
Solid Yellow =
priming pressure – 1800 PSI
Solid Green =
1800 PSI – 3200 PSI
