If the Spray Tip Becomes
Clogged
The spray gun is equipped with a reversible tip which allows
you to blow out any particles of old paint or other contaminants
that may obstruct the paint flow through the tip. If the spray
pattern becomes distorted or stops completely while the gun is
triggered on, follow these steps:
1. Release the trigger and lock the gun by turning the gun
safety switch so that it is parallel to the gun body.
2. Rotate the reversible tip cylinder arrow 180° so that the
point of the arrow is toward the rear of the gun.
3. Unlock the trigger and squeeze it open, pointing the gun
at a scrap piece of wood or cardboard. This allows
pressure in the paint hose to blow out the obstruction.
When the nozzle is clean, paint will come out in a straight,
high pressure stream.
4. Release the trigger and re-lock it.
5. Reverse the tip so the arrow points forward again.
6. Unlock the trigger and resume spraying.
Cleaning the Spray Gun Filter
The spray gun includes a filter to catch particles before they
reach the spray tip. If this filter becomes clogged or
obstructed it will reduce the flow of paint, changing the spray
pattern and possibly damaging the filter.
This filter must be cleaned daily. If the material being used is
old or contains hardened particles, then the filter should be
cleaned approximately every 4 hours.
If the filter is not cleaned at the proper time, it will plug from
the top down. When there is about 1 inch of filter that isn't
plugged, the heavy flow of paint will blow pin holes in the filter.
Holes in the filter will allow unwanted particles to get into the
spray tip, causing the spray tip to clog.

1. Turn the pressure control knob counterclockwise to the
minimum setting and turn the PRIME/SPRAY knob to
PRIME (
). This will bleed off the pressure in the paint
hose and filter. Trigger the gun to be sure that the pressure
is gone. Refer to the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
section.
2. Lock the spray gun by turning the gun safety switch
parallel to the gun body.
3. Remove the spray gun from the hose using two adjustable
wrenches.
4. Unclip the bottom of the knuckle guard from the filter
housing by pulling outward from the filter housing.
5. Unscrew the filter housing using an adjustable wrench on
the nut at the bottom of the housing.
6. Remove the filter. Do not lose the spring and the sealing
washer located in the bottom of the filter housing.
7. Clean the filter thoroughly or replace it with a new filter.
To clean the filter, rinse it thoroughly in water or the type
of solvent appropriate to the paint you are using. If this is
not sufficient, use a natural or nylon bristle brush dipped in
water or the appropriate solvent. Do not use a wire brush
or any sharp instrument on the filter.
8. Insert the top of the filter into the gun body under the tip
of the spray gun.
