cleanup
Special cleanup instructions for use with flammable
solvents:
• Always flush spray gun preferably outside and at least one
hose length from spray pump.
• If collecting flushed solvents in a one gallon metal container,
place it into an empty five gallon container, then flush
solvents.
• Area must be free of flammable vapors.
• Follow all cleanup instructions.
always spray at minimum pressure with the gun
nozzle tip removed when using mineral spirits or any
other solvent to clean the sprayer, hose, or gun. Static
electricity buildup may result in a fire or explosion in
the presence of flammable vapors.
ImPOrTaNT: The sprayer, hose, and gun should be cleaned
thoroughly after daily use. Failure to do so permits material to
build up, seriously affecting the performance of the unit.
1. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" found in the Operation
section of this manual.
2. Remove the gun tip and tip guard and clean with a brush
using the appropriate solvent.
3. Place the siphon tube into a container of the appropriate
solvent. Examples of the appropriate solvent are water for
latex paint or mineral spirits for oil-based paints.
4. Place the return hose into a metal waste container.
5. Set the pressure to minimum by turning the pressure control
knob fully counterclockwise.
6. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve down to its PRIME position.
NOTE: Hold the return hose in the waste container when
moving the PrImE/SPray valve to PrImE in case the
sprayer is pressurized.
7. Turn on the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the ON
position.
8. Allow the solvent to circulate through the unit and flush the
paint out of the return hose into the metal waste container.
9. Turn off the sprayer by moving the ON/OFF switch to the OFF
position.
10. Move the PRIME/SPRAY valve up to its SPRAY position.
11. Turn on the sprayer.
Ground the gun by holding it against the edge of the
metal container while flushing. Failure to do so may
lead to a static electric discharge, which may cause a
fire.
12. Trigger the gun into the metal waste container until the paint
is flushed out of the hose and solvent is coming out of the
gun.
13. Continue to trigger the spray gun into the waste container
until the solvent coming out of the gun is clean.
NOTE: For long-term or cold weather storage, pump
mineral sprits through the entire system.
For short-term storage when using latex paint,
pump water mixed with Titan Liquid Shield through
the entire system (see the accessories section of this
manual for part number).
14. Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure" found in the Operation
section of this manual.
15. Loosen and remove the filter housing (1).
