Pressure Relief Procedure

IMPORTANT!

To avoid possible serious body injury, always follow this procedure whenever the

sprayer is shut off, when checking it, when installing, changing or cleaning tips,

whenever you stop spraying, or when you are instructed to relieve the pressure.

1. Engage the gun safety latch. Refer to the

separate instruction manual provided with

your gun on its safety features and how to

engage safety latch.

4. Turn Prime/Pressure Relief Valve (PR Valve)

to the open (priming) position to relieve

residual fluid pressure.

There will be a wider gap between valve

handle and cam body when in open

position. In the closed position there is

only a very slight gap.

.

Note: The valve handle can move both

clockwise and counter clockwise and can

face different directions.

2. Turn the unit off.

3. Disengage the gun safety latch and trigger

the gun to relieve residual fluid pressure.

Hold metal part of the gun in

contact with grounded metal pail.

USE MINIMUM PRESSURE !

5. Re-engage gun safety latch and

close Prime/Pressure Relief Valve.

If the SPRAY TIP OR HOSE IS CLOGGED, follow Step 1 through 5 above. Expect paint

splashing into the bucket while relieving pressure during Step 4.

If you suspect that pressure hasn't been relieved due to damaged Prime/Pressure

Relief Valve or other reason, engage the gun safety latch and take your unit to an

authorized Airlessco Service Center.
