Chemical solutions may pose a health risk and death if they contact the skin or eyes, are inhaled or swallowed. Always read and follow all chemical safety precautions and handling instructions provided by the chemical manufacturer and the SDS associated with the chemical solution before using the unit.
Pressure within the equipment may cause an unexpected release of the chemical solution and cause serious injury such as burns, rashes, eye damage, throat or lung damage and death. Always depressurize and clean the unit after each use. Never leave the unit unattended while pressurized.
Using the unit with fluid temperatures above 100°F (37.8°C) may result in scalding, burns, serious injury or death. DO NOT use a solution with a temperature above 100°F (37.8°C).
Operating the unit when damaged or leaking may result in exposure to chemical solutions, serious injury or death. Never use the unit if it is damaged or leaking.
Never point the discharge wand at yourself, another person, or any object you do not want covered in chemical.
Using incoming air pressure exceeding 100 psi (6.9 bar) may result in pressure buildup, explosion, serious injury or death. DO NOT exceed 100 psi (6.9 bar) incoming air pressure when operating the unit.
Use of hydrocarbons and flammable products may result in explosions, fire and serious injury or death. Never use hydrocarbons or flammable products with the unit.
Mixing an alkaline with an acid may result in a chemical reaction. Overheating of the mixture may cause it to splatter caustic compounds or release hazardous fumes, gas and vapors.

Troubleshooting Your Unit

If your unit is not operating properly, try using these troubleshooting tips:

Issue
Air regulator bowl or air filter has debris such as water, oil, or rust particles

Solution · Clean by unthreading the air regulator bowl from the air regulator.

Pump is cycling faster than normal
Pump is cycling slower than normal

· Verify product is getting to the pump with these steps: 1. Inspect suction line foot valve for buildup. 2. Examine the suction hose for holes or cracks. 3. Ensure chemical suction line is fully submerged in the chemical jug.
· If these items are confirmed, the pump may need to be replaced.
· Verify that the unit is receiving proper air supply. Air supply should read at 50 psi (3.4 bar).

· Restriction on the outlet side of the unit may cause issues. Inspect outlet hose and fittings for build up. Clean or replace as needed.

· Confirm air inlet valve is open completely.

· Pump may need to be replaced.

Air passes through the pump · The pump needs to be replaced. without cycling

The unit operates at a reduced pressure

· Check suction line and strainer for debris or damage. Clean or replace as needed. To prevent damage to the unit, the strainer must always be used.

· Check the air compressor supplying the unit. If the pressure is less than 40 psi (2.8 bar), turn off the unit until the compressor can catch up.

· If the air supply is 50 psi (3.4 bar) or above, check the air gauge, which should read near 50 psi (3.4 bar). If the air gauge reads more or less than 50 psi (3.4 bar), adjust the pressure by turning the knob on the top of the air regulator.
