Special cleanup
ImPORTANT: Perform the following procedure after spraying
with water-based materials only.
Perform the following procedure when the valves of the sprayer
are stuck or when preparing the sprayer for long term storage. The
use of a pump cleaning adapter that attaches to the bottom of the
siphon tube is required (the pump cleaning adapter is included with
the sprayer).
1. Lock the gun and remove the spray tip assembly. If necessary,
loosen the gun holder clamp knob and then engage the spray
gun trigger lock. Move the spray gun to its original position
and tighten the clamp knob. Place the suction tube and
return tube into an empty waste container.
2. Using a garden hose, rinse off the siphon tube, return hose
and inlet filter. Empty the waste container.
3. Remove the inlet filter
from the suction tube
and place into a waste
container.
4. Verify that the seals are
present inside the adapter
and suction tube. Thread
the pump cleaning
adapter onto a garden
hose. Connect the hose
and adapter to the fitting
on the end of the siphon
tube.
5. Unclip the return hose
from the siphon tube and
place it into the waste
container.
6. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to the PRIME position.
7. Turn on the water supply.
8. Start the engine. Water will go into the siphon tube and out
through the return hose. Let the sprayer run for a few minutes
to allow the return hose to be flushed.
9. Turn off the sprayer by pressing and holding the engine
shutoff switch until the motor shuts off.
10. Place a metal waste container underneath the spray gun to
catch the cleaning solution.
11. Start the engine.
12. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to the SPRAY position.
13. Fully pull the spray lever on the cart handle to rev the engine,
pressurize the sprayer, and trigger the spray gun. Fluid will
begin flowing through the spray hose and out of the gun.
14. Continue to pull the spray lever on the cart handle until the
material is flushed out of the hose and the water coming out
of the gun is clean.
15. Release the spray lever.
16. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" found in the Operation
section of this manual.

2. Unscrew the fitting from the bottom of the spray gun using an
adjustable wrench, making sure not to lose the spring.
3. Remove the filter from the spray gun housing and clean with
the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for latex
