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.
OPERATION
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.
CLEANING ThE SPRAYER AFTER USE
The solution used to clean the sprayer is determined by
the type of material that has been sprayed. For anything
other than latex material, use Klean-Strip

non-flammable paint thinner (following the use of oil-based
products). Follow the material manufacturer's directions for
appropriate clean-up.
To clean the sprayer for short term storage:
 Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
 If you haven't already done so, remove the paint con-
tainer and return any unused paint or stain to its original
container.
 Fill the paint container with lukewarm water (following
the use of latex products) or Klean-Strip
White Formula Paint Thinner, Klean-Strip
Paint Thinner, CROWN
other non-flammable paint thinner (following the use of
oil-based products).
 Reinstall the paint container.
 Install the battery pack in the sprayer.
 Spray the solution onto a piece of cardboard or other
scrap material. Continue spraying until all the solution is
used.
 Remove the battery pack from the sprayer.
 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.
