Spray Gun Safety

Learn how to use the gun’s trigger safety

latch before operating the system.

The high pressure, airless spray gun supplied with this

system is equipped with a trigger safety latch. When

set, this latch prevents the gun from being triggered

accidentally. Read more about gun safety in the warn-

ing section, FLUID INJECTION on page NO TAG.

Set the trigger safety latch whenever you stop spray-

ing, even for only a minute, or if changing a tip.

TO RELEASE THE LATCH

FOR THE OFF SAFE, or

spraying position, gently

pull up on the latch and

turn it so it is parallel with

the gun body.

CAUTION

This pump is factory tested in oil. To avoid contami-

nating the masking liquid or the surface being

painted, flush the pump before immersing it in the

masking liquid.

1. Mount the pump in a 5 gallon pail of warm, soapy

water.

2. Be sure there is no spray tip in the gun. See Fig. 7

if the tip needs to be removed.

3. Set the trigger safety latch. See Fig. 1.

4. Be sure the air regulator handle is turned to zero

(fully left as you look at it).

5. Connect the air line to the pump.

6. Release the trigger safety latch.

7. Aim the gun into the flushing pail and squeeze the

gun trigger and hold it open.

8. Slowly open the air regulator until the pump is

running slowly and smoothly.

Setup for operation

NOTE: Be sure the system has been thoroughly

flushed.

1. Loosen the hose clamp on the suction hose. Slide

the suction hose as far as possible onto the pump

intake valve.

2. Slide the clamp up and tighten its screw

snugly! A loose clamp prevents the pump from

getting adequate fluid supply, which results in low

fluid flow and/or spitting air from the gun.

3. Remove the bung cover from the drum and open

the vent hole.

4. Loosen the thumbscrew on the bung adapter.

5. Slide the suction hose and pump through the bung

hole in the drum cover. Before the final positioning

of the pump, screw the bung adapter firmly into the

bung hole. Now position the pump as follows.

a. For 55 gallon drums: slide the pump into the

drum until you sense that the strainer is at the

bottom of the drum. Tighten the thumbscrew

snugly.

b. For 16 gallon drums: slide the pump into the

drum and allow the suction hose to curl around

the side and rest on the bottom of the drum.

Tighten the thumbscrew snugly.

c. For 5 gallon demo pails: Remove the suction

hose and strainer. Install the accessory pail

cover, p/n 222058. Slide the pump into the pail

until the intake valve is 1/2” off the bottom of

the pail. Tighten the bung adapter thumbscrew

snugly.

NOTE: Go to Prime the system on page 9.
