cleaning the Spray Tip
1. Flush the gun with solvent immediately after the work is
completed.
2. Oil the sliding pins to prevent them from seizing up.
Should the spray tip become clogged,
reverse the spray tip with the lever and
pull the trigger. Once the obstruction
comes out of the spray tip, release the
trigger, reverse the spray tip back to
the spray pattern setting, and resume
spraying.
Do not attempt to clean the
tip with your finger.
Do not use a needle or other
sharp pointed instrument to
clean the tip. The hard tungsten carbide is brittle
and can be chipped.
Maintenance
Before proceeding, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure outlined previously in this manual.
additionally, follow all other warnings to reduce
the risk of an injection injury, injury from moving
parts or electric shock.
NOTE: all Robin-Subaru engine work should be
performed by a Robin-Subaru authorized service
center.

Maintaining the Engine
When transporting a sprayer with a gas engine,
make sure the fuel is shut off.
NOTE: For detailed engine specifications and
maintenance, refer to the separate engine manual
supplied with this sprayer.
Important Facts concerning this Sprayer
This gas-powered sprayer contains a clutch that engages when
the sprayer is pumping. The sprayer's pressure control system
engages and disengages the clutch to control pressure. To
prevent unnecessary wear to the clutch, it is advisable to adjust
the engine speed and pressure setting to limit the amount of
times the clutch engages and disengages. To reduce clutch
wear, refer to the following examples.
Example:
Operating one gun with a .019" tip — reduce the engine speed
by adjusting the throttle to a low or medium setting and increase
pressure only until the heavy ends of the spray pattern have
been eliminated.
Example:
Operating one gun with .025" tip — increase engine speed to a
higher setting and increase pressure until the heavy ends of the
spray pattern have been eliminated.
Example:
Spraying light-bodied materials at low pressure — to reduce
surging at the gun and to decrease clutch wear, reduce the
engine speed to idle and reduce pressure until the desired spray
pattern is achieved.
Routine Engine Maintenance
Daily
• Check and fill the gas tank.
• After the first 20 hours of operation, drain the oil and
refill with clean oil. Check the engine oil level and fill as
