See Figure 13, page 16.
Use the 1 in. round fan tip for latex paints,
oil-based paints, and stains. This tip sprays
in a round pattern.
Use the 12 in. wide fan tip for latex paints.
This tip sprays in a wide pattern that can be
adjusted from horizontal to vertical.
to switch tips:
 Remove the battery pack from the backpack unit.
 Remove the installed tip by turning it counter-
clockwise.
 Install the desired tip and rotate clockwise to tighten
securely.
NOTE: The tip should be tightened securely by hand. A
too loose or overtightened tip may cause the sprayer to
leak or be damaged.
to change direction of wide fan tip:
 Slightly loosen the wide fan tip by rotating counter-
clockwise 1/4 turn.
 Rotate the adjusting arm 1/4 turn in the direction needed
to switch the direction of the tip spray.
 While holding the adjusting arm in position, rotate the
wide fan tip clockwise until securely tightened.
OPERATION
opEratinG thE rollEr
See Figures 14 - 15, page 17.
 Install the battery pack into the backpack unit.
 Connect the paint supply tube to both the backpack unit
and the roller handle.
 Prime the backpack unit:
• Place the motor switch in the forward position.
• Aim into a bucket and squeeze the trigger on the roller
to release air inside the unit.
• Once paint is running through both the intake tube and
the return tube, the unit is primed.
• Place the motor switch in the off position.
 Turn the flow adjustment knob so that it is all the way
open.
 Place the motor switch in the forward position.
 Squeeze the trigger. Once the roller has paint, release
the trigger and squeeze again only when more paint is
needed.
NOTE: Do not continuously squeeze the trigger. For best
results, after every third stroke, pull trigger for 1 second,
release, then continue to paint.
 Once the paint is flowing through the paint tube and
into the roller, adjust the variable paint flow valve for the
desired paint coverage.
 To create an even coating over the entire surface:
• Apply paint or stain in an area several feet wide in a
zig-zag direction.
• Roll back and forth repeatedly over the same area
until the entire area is covered and the roller marks
are smoothed out.
• If additional coats are necessary, let paint or stain dry
completely between coats.
