OPERATING THE SPRAYER
See Figures 5 - 7, page 13.
 Ensure surface to be painted is free of dust, dirt, and
grease.
 Mask or cover any areas not intended to be painted or
stained. Be aware of wind that may cause your paint or
stain to spray into areas not desired. Always use drop
cloths or other cover to protect areas that are not intended
to be painted or stained.
 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.
 Re-assemble the spray tip assembly.
 The tip guard may be set to spray paint in either a
horizontal or vertical pattern.
 To change direction of the spray, slightly loosen the wide
fan tip by rotating counter-clockwise 1/4 turn. Rotate the
adjusting arm 1/4 turn in the direction needed to switch
the direction of the tip spray. While holding the adjusting
arm in position, rotate the wide fan tip clockwise until
securely tightened.
 Fill the quick-lock paint container with no more than
1.0 quart of desired paint or stain.
 Plug 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 at a
scrap surface for at least 20 seconds to prime.
