Maintenance - Ryobi ProTip P650 Manuel D'utilisation

 Fill the Quick-lock paint container with no more than
1.5 quarts of desired paint or stain.
 Install the battery pack in the sprayer.
 Pull the switch trigger to spray paint. Release the switch
trigger to stop paint spray.
 Practice spraying on a piece of scrap material to test your
spray pattern and to prime the pump before beginning. If
you cannot get a good spray pattern with an even amount
of paint or stain throughout, refer to the Troubleshooting
section later in this manual.
NOTE: The pump must be primed after every paint change
and at first use after storing. Spray paint on a scrap surface
for at least 20 seconds to prime.
 To create an even coating over the entire surface:
• Move your arm at a steady rate of speed and make sure
to move your entire arm, not just your wrist.
• Keep the sprayer an even distance from the area being
sprayed, which should be between 8 to10 inches from
the tip of the sprayer to the surface being sprayed.
• Depress the trigger to begin the spray off the material you
want to paint. Operate the sprayer in straight horizontal
or vertical strokes across the surface being painted, then
release the trigger off the material to end the stroke.
NOTE: For spray quality consistency when using thinner
paints, it may be necessary to keep the trigger depressed
between strokes.
 When finished, remove the battery pack, return any unused
paint or stain to its original container, and thoroughly clean
the sprayer.
CLEARING A PAINT CLOG
See Figure 8, page 14.
If paint is not flowing freely through the spray tip or the surface
does not show an even coat of paint, the spray tip may be
clogged. Reversing the spray tip can help to free the clog.
 Twist the spray tip so that the pointed end is turned toward
you.
 Point the paint sprayer toward a piece of scrap material.
 Press the trigger until paint flows through the spray tip. This
should clear the clog.
 Turn the spray tip so that the pointed end is facing away
from you.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts could create a hazard or cause
product damage.
OPERATION
 Test the sprayer on a piece of scrap material before you
resume painting.
CAUTION:
It is important to thoroughly clean the sprayer after each use
or when changing colors. Allowing paint or stain to remain
in an idle tool for an extended period can cause its moving
pieces to seize up.
Do not clean with any flammable liquids such as paint stripper,
paint remover, brush cleaner, mineral spirits, lacquer thinner,
turpentine, acetone, gasoline, kerosene, etc.
CLEANING THE SPRAYER AFTER USE
The solution used to clean the sprayer is determined by the
type of material that has been sprayed. For anything other than
latex material, follow the material manufacturer's directions for
appropriate clean-up.
To clean the sprayer for short term storage:
 Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
 If you haven't already done so, remove the paint container
and return any unused paint or stain to its original container.
 Fill the paint container with lukewarm water (for water based
paints) or
varnish, or any other non-flammable paint thinner (following
the use of oil-based products).
NOTE: For best results, clean the container first.
 Reinstall the paint container.
 Install the battery pack in the sprayer.
 Spray the solution onto a piece of cardboard or other scrap
material. Continue spraying until all the solution is used.
 Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
 Place a line of lubricant on the piston. To gain access to the
piston, follow the instructions in Cleaning the Sprayer for
Storage in the Maintenance section of this manual.
 Use a damp cloth to wipe the exterior of the sprayer. The
unit is now ready to put away.

MAINTENANCE

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result
