FLEXIBLE EXTENSION AND SUCTION TUBE KIT
USING THE FLEXIBLE EXTENSION
The flexible extension can be bent at any angle to make spraying floors, ceilings, overhangs,
|or hard to reach areas easier. Using the flexible extension will prevent tilting of the sprayer.
NOTE: Tilting of the sprayer is not recommended as it may cause leakage.
1. Remove the spray tip by turning it counterclockwise. Do not remove atomizer valve.
2. Attach flexible extension end onto the cylinder housing.
3. Remove the guard on the end of the flexible extension; ensure that the atomizer valve
remains in the flexible extension housing.
4. Screw the spray tip onto the flexible extension. See Figure K.
5. Bend the flexible extension to the position which is required. This can be up, down, or
sideways. See Figure L. The flexible extension is a vinyl-covered copper tube. It will require
some force to bend it.
NOTE: When using the flexible extension, two atomizer valves must be used. The longer
atomizer valve must be between the cylinder housing and flexible extension and the shorter
atomizer valve must be between the flexible extension and spray tip.
CLEANING THE FLEXIBLE EXTENSION
1. To clean the flexible extension, spray water or solvent through the sprayer until the flexible
extension is clean.
2. Follow CLEAN UP INSTRUCTIONS.
3. Replace the guard on to the end of the flexible extension for storage.
NOTE: If returning to project with the spray tip, practice with the spray tip first on newspaper
or cardboard and then adjust the spray pattern.
USING THE SUCTION TUBE KIT
1. Remove the container and pick-up tube from the sprayer.
2. Turn the sprayer upside down.
3. Slide the suction tube and clamp dual tubing onto the two open cylinder ports on the
cylinder housing. See Figure M.
4. Turn the sprayer right side up.
5. Follow tubing down from the longer cylinder housing port, insert pick-up tube into that
end of the suction tube and clamp plastic tubing.
6. Immerse suction tube into paint or stain and secure clamp to side of the paint or stain
container.
NOTE: To reduce the time the sprayer runs without paint or stain, hold the sprayer below
the fluid level when priming. This will shorten the time required to draw the paint or stain
through the tube. The paint/stain may need additional thinning if the sprayer will not prime.
NOTE: Normal priming time is one minute for the stain or paint to travel from container to
sprayer. If it takes longer than two minutes stop. The sprayer may need to be lubricated or
the material may be too thick. See CLEAN UP INSTRUCTIONS.
CLEANING THE SUCTION TUBE KIT
1. To clean your sprayer suction tube kit, run water or cleaning solution through the suction
tube until clear.
2. Disassemble the fittings at both ends of the suction tube before any remaining material can dry.
3. Thoroughly clean the adapter fitting, pick-up tube and filter.
