IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING – Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the green grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having a green outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL INFORMATION

Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A 14 gauge or 12 gauge cord is recommended. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-A after the cord type designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use.

SAFETY HAZARDS

HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Flammable vapors, such as solvent and paint vapors, in work area can ignite or explode.

PREVENTION

• Do not spray flammable or combustible materials.
• Do not spray or clean with liquids having a flash point of less than 100ºF (38ºC). Flash point is the temperature at which a fluid can produce enough vapor to ignite.
• Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge.
• Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.
• Do not smoke in the spray area.
• Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the spray area.
• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.
• Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed. Read all material Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and container labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvent manufacture’s safety instructions.
• Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.

HAZARD: ELECTRIC SHOCK
This product can cause injury due to electric shock.

PREVENTION

• Never submerge electrical parts.
• Never expose the equipment to rain. Store indoors.
• Keep electrical cord plug and spray gun trigger free from paint and other liquids. Never hold the cord at plug connections to support the cord. Failure to observe may result in an electrical shock.

HAZARD: GENERAL
This product can cause severe injury or property damage.

PREVENTION

• Always wear appropriate gloves, eye protection, clothing and a respirator or mask when painting. Hazardous vapors – Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or come in contact with body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting or poisoning.
• Do not operate or spray near children. Keep children away from equipment at all times.
• Do not overreach or stand on an unstable support. Keep effective footing and balance at all times.

SETUP

THINNING THE MATERIAL

Before spraying, the material being used may need to be thinned with the proper solvent as specified by the material manufacturer. Never exceed the thinning advice given by the coating manufacturer.
If thinning is necessary, use water or paint conditioner (such as Paint Easy™) for water-based materials, mineral spirits for oil-based materials. Never exceed the thinning advice given by the coating manufacturer.

Do not thin with materials that have a flashpoint below 100°F (38°C).

SETUP
NEVER point the spray gun at any part of the body.
Make sure the power cord is unplugged.

1. Stir the spraying material thoroughly. Fill the container. Use a strainer to remove any particles.
2. Align the pickup tube –
   • If spraying downward, the angled end of the pickuptube should be pointing toward the front of the nozzle.
   • If spraying upward, the angled end of the pickup tube should be pointing toward the rear of the nozzle
   • Make sure the pickup tube is inserted as far as it will go to ensure a tight fit.
   • Attention Never tip the sprayer at more than a 45° angle. Material could get into the turbine and damage the sprayer.
3. Carefully screw the cup back onto the nozzle assembly. Tighten firmly.
4. Align the arrow on the nozzle with the “unlock” symbol on the spray gun handle.
5. Insert and twist the nozzle into the handle toward the “lock” symbol on the handle. The tab below the trigger will lock the two pieces into place.

Attention
Do not pull trigger at any time if the turbine is not running. Paint will drip from the nozzle.

SPRAYER CONTROLS

MATERIAL FLOW CONTROL

• Generally, low material flow is needed for spraying smaller surface areas, such as corners, lattice, or spindles.
• Generally, high material flow is needed for spraying large surface areas, such as fences and decks.
  

SPRAY WIDTH LEVER
The spray width lever determines the width of the spray pattern.

AIR CAP

• Adjust the spray pattern by turning the air cap ears (A).
• The air cap position will determine the movement direction of the spray gun.
• Round pattern (use ‘up and down’ or ‘side to side’ spraying motion)
• Horizontal pattern (use ‘up and down’ spraying motion)
• Vertical pattern (use ‘side to side’ spraying motion)

SPRAYING

• Turn the ON/OFF switch to ON (I) to turn on the turbine. No material will spray until the trigger is activated.
• Position the spray gun perpendicular to the spray surface.
• Spray parallel to the surface with straight and full passes at a consistent speed as illustrated, below.
• Always apply a thin wet coat of material on the first pass and allow to dry before applying a second, slightly heavier coat.
• When spraying, always trigger the spray gun after the spray pass has begun and release the trigger before stopping the pass. Always keep the gun pointed squarely at the spray surface and overlap passes by 50% to obtain the most consistent and professional finish possible.
• Frequently wipe the nozzle tip with a damp rag when spraying to remove dried material.

CLEANUP

When cleaning, use the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for water-based coatings, and mineral spirits for oil-based coatings.
Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable solvents (must have a flashpoint above 100ºF (38ºC):

• Always flush spray gun outside.
• Area must be free of flammable vapors.
• Cleaning area must be well-ventilated.
• Do not submerge turbine!

For basic quick-cleaning between color changes, fill the material container with cleaning solution and spray the cleaning solution through the gun and into a waste container.

1. Turn turbine OFF. Separate the turbine from the nozzle.
   Remove the container and empty any remaining material. Thoroughly rinse the material container with warm, soapy water (or mineral spirits for oil-based materials).

2. Remove the air cap (a) by prying it off the connecting nut (inset). Loosen the connecting nut (b).
   Remove the parts as shown. Clean all parts with a cleaning brush and the appropriate cleaning solution. Reassemble all parts when clean.

3. Clean the air vent (c) on the suction tube with a soft bristled cleaning brush.

4. Clean the rear of the nozzle (d) with the appropriate cleaning solution. Use a thin layer of petroleum jelly to lubricate the O-ring (e).

MAINTENANCE

REPLACING THE FILTER
