Pressure Relief Procedure
Be sure to follow the pressure relief procedure
when shutting the unit down for any purpose,
including servicing or adjusting any part of the
spray system, changing or cleaning spray tips, or
preparing for cleanup.
1. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position. 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.
2. Turn the DirectLink pressure control knob fully clockwise
to minimum.
3. Turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to the
PRIME position.
4. Turn off the sprayer by pressing and
holding the engine shutoff switch until the
motor shuts off.
5. Unlock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the
unlocked position.
6. Fully pull the spray lever on the cart handle to trigger the
spray gun and release any remaining pressure in the
hose.
7. Lock the gun by turning the gun trigger lock to the locked
position. 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.
clearing a clogged Tip
If the spray pattern becomes distorted or stops completely while
the trigger is pulled, follow these steps.
1. Place a sheet of cardboard or small
bucket under the spray gun to catch
the paint.
2. Rotate the tip 180º so that the
arrow on the tip handle is pointing
opposite the spray direction.
NOTE: If the tip is difficult to rotate, relieve pressure
by 1) slowly turning the PRIME/SPRaY knob to
PRIME, 2) unlock the spray gun, and 3) squeeze
the spray lever. Release the lever, lock the spray
gun, and try rotating the spray tip again.
3. Make sure the PRIME/SPRAY knob is turned to SPRAY.
Unlock the spray gun.
4. Trigger the gun once so that the pressure can blow the
clog out.
IMPORTaNT: Never pull the trigger more than once at time
with the tip in the reverse position.
5. Continue this procedure until the tip is clear of the clog.
Do not attempt to clean the tip with your finger.
Do not use a needle or other sharp pointed
instrument to clean the tip. The hard tungsten
carbide is brittle and can be chipped.

changing a Spray Tip
Tips can be removed and replaced easily without disassembling
the gun.
Never attempt to change or clean the tip or tip
guard without first performing the "Pressure Relief
Procedure."
1. Perform the "Pressure Relief Procedure" described in the
sprayer's Owner's Manual.
2. Remove the tip from the slot on the tip guard.
3. Insert the new tip into the slot on the tip guard. The
arrow on the tip handle should be pointing in the forward
direction for spraying.
Removing the Seal and Tip Seal
1. Remove the tip from the tip
guard.
2. Insert the tip handle through
the front of the tip guard.
3. Push the seal and tip seal out
through the back of the tip
guard.
Identifying Tip Sizes
To identify tip sizes, use the following formula. A "1908" tip size
will be used in this example.
The last two digits divided by two represent the size of the spray
pattern when spraying 6" away from the work surface:
08 ÷ 2 = 4" spray pattern
The first two digits represent the diameter of the orifice on the tip:
19 = .019" orifice
NOTE: Worn spray tips will adversely affect the spray
pattern and result in reduced production, poor
finish, and wasted material. Replace worn tips
immediately.
Stenciling
To stencil with this line striper, make multiple spraying passes
from right to left over the stencil with the spray gun connected
to the gun holder. Or, the spray gun can be removed and used
independently from the striper.
To remove the spray gun:
1. Perform the Pressure Relief Procedure in the Operation
section of this manual.
2. Loosen the gun holder block knob on top of the gun
holder.
3. Slide the spray gun out of the gun holder.
Operating the Front caster
The front caster on the cart is designed to track the sprayer in
either a straight line or allow free-wheel striping. To adjust the
front caster:
1. Pull the handle on the side
of the caster up and back to
release the wheel for free-
wheel striping.
2. To lock the wheel back into
place, pull the handle down.
Once the front wheel is turned
straight again, the wheel will
lock back into place.
