Painting in airless Mode

Use the airless mode for general high-pressure spraying (pump
pressure from 500 to 2800 PSI).
1. Make sure that the airless spray hose is free of kinks and clear
of objects with sharp cutting edges.
2. Turn the pressure control
knob counterclockwise to its
lowest setting.
3. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve
to SPRAY.
4. Move the pump ON/OFF
switch to the ON position.
5. Turn the pressure control
knob clockwise to its highest
setting. The paint hose
should stiffen as paint begins
to flow through it.
6. Unlock the spray gun trigger.
7. Trigger the spray gun to
bleed air out of the material hose.
8. When material reaches the spray tip, spray a test area to check
the spray pattern.
9. Use the lowest pressure setting necessary to get a good spray
pattern. If the pressure is set too high, the spray pattern will
be too light. If the pressure is set too low, tailing will appear
or the paint will spatter out in "gobs" rather than in a fine
spray.

Pressure relief Procedure

Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure when
shutting the unit down for any purpose, including
servicing or adjusting any part of the spray system,
changing or cleaning spray tips, or preparing for
cleanup.
1. Turn the pressure control
knob counterclockwise to its
lowest setting.
2. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY valve
to the PRIME position.
3. Trigger the gun to remove
any pressure that still may be
in the hose.
4. Lock the gun by flipping the
trigger lock into lock position
(see spray gun manual).
Injection hazard. Do not spray without the tip guard
in place. NEVEr trigger the gun unless the tip is
completely turned to either the spray or the unclog
position. aLwayS engage the gun trigger lock before
removing, replacing or cleaning tip.

Spraying Technique

The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire surface.
This is done by using even strokes. Keep your arm moving at a
constant speed and keep the spray gun at a constant distance from
the surface. The best spraying distance is 10 to 12 inches between
the spray tip and the surface.

Keep the spray gun at right angles to the surface. This means moving
your entire arm back and forth rather than just flexing your wrist.
Keep the spray gun perpendicular to the surface, otherwise one end
of the pattern will be thicker than the other.
The spray gun should be triggered by turning it on and off with each
stroke. This will save paint and avoid paint buildup at the end of the
stroke. Do not trigger the gun during the middle of a stroke. This will
result in an uneven spray and splotchy coverage.

Overlap each stroke by about 30%. This will ensure an even coating.
When you stop painting, lock the gun trigger lock, turn the pressure
control knob counterclockwise to its lowest setting and set the
priming knob to PRIME. Turn the motor switch to OFF and unplug
the sprayer.
If you expect to be gone more than 1 hour, follow the short term
clean up procedure described in the Cleanup section of this manual.
