OPERATION

To change direction of wide fan tip:

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.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of injection, do not point sprayer at

any part of the body or person. In case of skin injection,

seek medical attention immediately. Do not use without

spray tip in place.

OPERATING THE SPRAYER

See Figures 6 - 9, page 13.

 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.

 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.

 Fill the quick-lock container with no more than 1 quart of

desired paint or stain.

NOTE: After every 4 refills of the quick-lock container,

add a line of lubricant to the piston. See Cleaning the

Sprayer for Storage for instructions on disassembling

the sprayer to gain access to the piston.

 Select the proper spray tip for desired spray pattern.

 Install the battery pack 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.

To create an even coating over the entire surface:

• Move your arm at a steady rate of speed and make

sure to move your entire arm, not just your wrist.

• Keep the sprayer an even distance from the area being

sprayed, which should be between 8 to10 inches from

the tip of the sprayer to the surface being sprayed.

• Depress the trigger to begin the spray off the mate-

rial you want to paint. Operate the sprayer in straight

horizontal or vertical strokes across the surface being

painted, then release the trigger off the material to end

the stroke.

NOTE: For spray quality consistency when using thin-

ner paints, it may be necessary to keep the trigger

depressed between strokes.

When finished, remove the battery pack, return any un-

used paint or stain to its original container, and thoroughly

clean the sprayer.

CAUTION:

It is important to thoroughly clean the sprayer after each

use or when changing colors. Allowing paint or stain to

remain in an idle tool for an extended period can cause

its moving pieces to seize up.

WARNING:

Do not clean with any flammable liquids such as paint strip-

per, paint remover, brush cleaner, mineral spirits, lacquer

thinner, turpentine, acetone, gasoline, kerosene, etc.

the use of latex products) or Klean-Strip

Revolutionary

scrap material. Continue spraying until all the solution is

used.
