SPRAYING TROUBLESHOOTING
EN
The following is a short list of minor difficulties you might
encounter while spraying. If any of these occur, it will reduce the
flow of material, making your spray pattern poor, or material
will fail to spray from the gun.
Follow the guidelines on this page to correct any one of
these problems.
Unclogging the spray tip
WARNING
Do not attempt to unclog or clean the tip with your
finger.
CAUTION
Do not use a needle or other sharp pointed instrument
to clean the tip. The hard tungsten carbide can chip.
If the spray pattern becomes distorted or stops completely
while the gun is triggered, follow these steps:
1) Turn the pump off, and release the trigger and lock the
gun off.
2) Rotate the reversible tip arrow 180° so that the point of
the arrow is toward the rear of the gun.
Under pressure, the spray tip
may be very difficult to turn.
Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob
to PRIME and trigger the gun.
This will relieve pressure and
the tip will turn more easily.
3) Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob
to SPRAY.
4) Unlock the gun and squeeze the trigger, pointing the
gun at a scrap piece of wood or cardboard. This allows
pressure in the spray hose to blow out the obstruction.
When the nozzle is clean, paint will come out in a high
pressure stream.
If paint still will not spray from the spray tip, follow the
steps on the next column.
5) Release the trigger and lock
the gun off.
6) Reverse the tip so the arrow
points foward again (SPRAY
position).
7) Unlock the gun and resume spraying.

Unclogging the spray gun filter
This filter must be cleaned every time you use your
sprayer. When using thicker paints, the filter might need
to be cleaned more often.
1) Perform Pressure Relief Procedure (page 30).
2) Pull the hook upwards and fold the filter cover forwards.
3) Unscrew the filter from the gun using a slotted
screwdriver.
When cleaning filter, look for sediments in the spraying
material you are using. Refer to Paint Straining, (page 30).
4) Inspect the filter for holes. Replace if holes are found.
CAUTION
NEVER POKE THE FILTER WITH A SHARP INSTRUMENT!
5) Insert the filter back into the gun and tighten it with a
slotted screwdriver.
6) Fold the filter cover back down and press it into place.
Unclogging the inlet filter
1) Perform Pressure Relief Procedure, (page 30).
2) Empty the hopper of all spraying material (see Emptying
the Hopper, page 35).
3) Remove the inlet filter from
the hopper. A pair of pliers
may be needed to loosen
the filter.
4) Clean the inlet filter using
the appropriate cleaning
solution (warm, soapy
water).
5) Replace filter.
If after having completed all of the steps on this page
you are still experiencing problems spraying, refer to
the TROUBLESHOOTING page (page 39)
