Priming with
the Remote
Suction Hoses
Start
Notice:
Follow these steps if you plan to spray
while using the remote suction hoses or
the backpack kit.
Notes:
• The time needed to prime will vary from
30 seconds to 3 minutes depending upon
the thickness of the material you are
spraying.
• If your sprayer is properly cleaned and
oiled and it takes longer than three
minutes to prime, your piston and/or pump
housing may be worn and will need to be
replaced before using your remote suction
set.
• Using the remote suction hoses will
decrease the material ow, so it will
take longer to apply the same amount of
material to the surface being sprayed.
• A 75% duty cycle is recommended
when using the remote suction set. For
example, trigger the gun for 15 seconds,
and then allow the gun to remain idle
(untriggered) for 5 seconds.
IMPORTANT: Always make sure the tip nut
is tightened securely prior to spraying.
1a. If equipped -
Turn the material select lever to
‘PAINT’.
3. Aim the sprayer at a piece of scrap wood or
cardboard.
Squeeze the trigger and hold until all air is out
of the system and material is owing freely out
of the sprayer tip. This could take up to three
minutes.
IMPORTANT: The suction hose must remain
completely submerged in the material. If it is
not completely submerged and air is sucked
into the system, the piston could seize.
If the piston seizes, the sound the gun makes
will change to a low hum and the gun will
quickly become hot to the touch. Never run the
sprayer when the piston is seized.
Should this happen, clean the piston and the
pump housing thoroughly using the cleanup
procedures found in this manual.
1b. If equipped -
Press the ‘SELECT’ switch until
the light indicates ‘PAINT’.
2. Hold the sprayer even with
the level of the paint. This will
speed up the priming.
