WARNING NEVER PLACE FINGERS NEAR SPRAY TIP OF GUN. NEVER POINT GUN TOWARD ANY PART OF YOUR BODY, OR THAT OF ANY OTHER PERSON. MATERIAL ISSUING FROM THE SPRAY TIP IS AT HIGH PRESSURE. IF FINGERS, OR ANY PART OF THE BODY ARE PLACED NEAR THE TIP OF THE SPRAY GUN, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE SPRAY COULD BREAK THE SKIN AND INJECT SOME OF THE SPRAY MATERIAL. IF INJURY DOES OCCUR, SEEK THE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION OF A MEDICAL DOCTOR.
ALWAYS set trigger lock on gun in "LOCKED" position when not in use, with gun locked close. ALWAYS check connections and fittings for tightness before operating the unit. ALWAYS locate the unit in a well ventilated area a minimum of 25 feet from the spray area. ALWAYS ground the unit, the paint containers, and the object being sprayed to eliminate static discharge. Ensure that all these objects remain grounded throughout the entire spraying operation.
inconvenience and mess of overspray. You are spraying paint, not air, and the paint is driven to the painting surface in a clean, fan shaped spray which penetrates all cracks and corners. To attain these results, you must adjust the pressure as low as possible. We recommend that you become familiar with your H.E.R.O. unit. Discuss with your dealer the useful accessory items he has to offer - various types of tips, extension poles for hard to reach areas, extra hose, etc.
tightened the siphon hose will no longer swivel or move, as such, ensure the siphon hose is positioned in the desired direction prior to making the final tightening. The desired position is straight back from the intake. Use caution to avoid over tightening which may result in cracked or broken fittings. 7 11 3. Attach prime hose (ref# 51) to (ref#50). Secure with clamp (ref# 52). 4. Attach paint hose to outgo tee 8 5. Attach gun to paint hose. NOTE; Spray tip and tip guard attaching to hose.
SETTING UP TO SPRAY - CONTINUED 75 46 10. Turn pressure control knob (ref# 75) counter clockwise to lowest pressure setting. 11. Observe and perform all pre-operation checks as required by the engine manufacturer, ( Honda ). See your Honda owner’s manual. 12. Start engine. See Honda owner’s manual for correct procedures. 13. Turn prime valve knob (ref# 46) counter clockwise until fully open. Allow thinner to circulate back into the siphon pail for a few minutes.
FLUSHING THE UNIT AT SHUTDOWN OR COLOR CHANGE If shutting down for a short period of time, it is sufficient to trigger the gun to relieve pressure. Then set the safety lock on gun to "locked" position with the gun locked closed and immerse the gun in a container of the correct thinner for the paint you are spraying. 1. 2. Remove spray tip from gun. Turn pressure control knob counter clockwise to low pressure setting. Only use sufficient pressure to allow material to move through the sprayer.
NEVER LEAVE THE UNIT UNDER PRESSURE WHEN NOT SPRAYING (ENGINE TURNED OFF). RELIEVE PRESSURE BY TRIGGERING GUN. NEVER STORE THE UNIT WITH PAINT OR WATER IN THE PUMP SYSTEM, EVEN OVERNIGHT. NEVER attempt to start the engine when the unit is under pressure. Relieve pressure and follow instructions in "Setting up to spray" Avoid operating the unit while tilted. Keeping it level assures greater operating efficiency. Always follow flushing and cleaning instructions exactly.
SUGGESTIONS AND TECHNIQUE A good airless spray application is the result of many factors. Surface preparation, which includes cleaning and degreasing, priming, material compatibility, quality finish product and correct application technique, are all important to the finished results. The key to all good applications is a good spray gun technique. The finished results are what the client will look at and base his opinion on. Your skill and abilities are as important as good equipment and good paint.

build and then deliver or have an output of pressure. Once you have a basic understanding of the operation of the equipment and the effect created in one area and how it will effect operation in another area, you will be better able to diagnose and make repairs. All H.E.R.O. hydrapulse membrane pumps are made up of two (2) distinct pumps. The first, and most important pump is the hydraulic pump.
TROUBLESHOOTING The backward movement of the piston, creates a vacuum in the hydraulic system. This causes the hydraulic outgo valve to close and the hydraulic intake valve to open (fig# 1). Opening of the hydraulic intake valve allows a new supply of hydraulic oil to enter the system, replacing the oil which was used on the forward stroke. Once again a corresponding re-action is taking place in the paint pump. The hydrapulse membrane is being pulled backward by the hydrapulse membrane spring, (ref# 56).
PAINT OUTGO VALVE ( REF# 26, PART# 4-611C ) The paint outgo valve monitors and controls the flow of spray materials as it leaves the sprayer. It also works together with the paint intake valve, to build paint pressure as specified by the setting made by the hydraulic outgo valve (pressure control valve). A worn outgo valve will result in pulsation in the spray material and cause the paint hose to jump and vibrate vigorously.
PRESSURE TEST To verify the operation of an airless sprayer, use of pressure gauge is required. A pressure gauge (min. 3000 psi) installed at the gun, using a new .021 tip, and not less than 50 feet of H.E.R.O. airless spray hose is needed. If you do not have access to these items, your local H.E.R.O. authorized service center will be able to perform this test. Your model 1150GSD is manufactured to perform at; 2650 psi -- Static pressure, with lock ring (ref# 77) on pressure control valve (ref# 74).
GASOLINE ENGINE WON'T START/RUN 1. Pump under pressure. (reduce pressure setting by turning pressure control knob counter-clockwise, trigger gun to relieve pressure). 2. Fuel line valve closed. ( open fuel line valve. See Honda owners manual ). 3. Engine switch in “OFF” position. ( turn the engine switch to “ON” position ). 4. Engine out of gasoline. ( allow engine to cool, before adding appropriate levels of unleaded gas ). 5. Engine is oil contaminated.
TOTAL LOSS OF PRESSURE, HYDRAPULSE MEMBRANE HAS NO MOVEMENT OR MOVEMENT CAN BE STOPPED. (SEE "HYDRAPULSE MEMBRANE TEST") 1. Hydraulic intake valve (ref# 66) defective. (remove hydraulic feed line,(ref# 67), from hydraulic intake valve. Plug hydraulic feed line so hydraulic fluid does not drain. Remove hydraulic intake valve from elbow,(ref# 62). Check hydraulic intake valve to ensure that it flows in one way only, into the cylinder. Replace if necessary. NOTE; Item cannot be repaired ). 2.
Replace or tighten as required). 2. Piston seals (ref# 91) worn. (remove and replace piston seals, following closely the detailed instructions on page 24-25). CORRECT STATIC PRESSURE, BUT REDUCED SPRAYING PRESSURE (Check with pressure gauge, see page 16 for details). 1. Spray tip worn out/too large. (replace with new, correct sized spray tip. Tip most not exceed a newer condition .031 tip (for 1 gun) or .021 tip (for 2 guns)). 2. Paint hose incorrect. (replace hose with genuine H.E.R.O.
2. 3. Paint hose incorrect type. (replace with genuine top quality H.E.R.O. airless spray hose. Steel braided hose is not recommended ). Too short a length of hose. (minimum 50' of airless spray hose is required. Replace or add hose until a minimum of 50' is being used). FLUID BEING SPRAYED OUT OF TIP PULSATES, SPRAY HOSE CONTINUES TO MOVE VIGOROUSLY WHEN GUN TRIGGER CLOSED 1. Outgo valve (ref# 26) assembled incorrectly.
1. 2. Prime not closed tightly. (tighten valve stem,(ref# 46) further) Prime valve worn. ( install prime valve repair kit, (ref# 42). See page 27 for detailed instructions.) SPRAY PATTERN IS SPOTTY OR UNEVEN 1. Pressure is too low. (increase pressure slowly until problem is corrected ). 2. Spray material too thick. (thin as recommended by material manufacturer). 3. Plugged siphon screen, siphon tube, gun filter or a combination. (inspect and clean or replace as required). 4. Plugged tip.
