Operation
7. To prime pump, hold a metal part of gun firmly
against into a metal waste container.
See Fig. 4 .
Squeeze trigger and hold it open, turn ON/OFF
switch to ON, and slowly increase pressure setting
until sprayer starts. Keep gun triggered until all air
is forced out of system and paint flows freely from
gun. Release trigger and engage gun safety latch.
CAUTION
Do not run the sprayer dry for more than 30 seconds
to avoid damaging the pump packings.
8. Check all fluid connections for leaks. If any leaks
are found, relieve pressure before tightening
connections.
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
To reduce the risk of fluids entering
control box, check weep hole (Fig.16, C)
regularly. Replace o–ring when any
leakage is seen. Also read FIRE OR
EXPLOSION HAZARD on page 4.
9. Check weep hole (Fig. 16, C) of pressure control
for leakage at start up and during operation. If
leakage, replace o–ring as instructed in Pressure
Control Transducer and O–Ring Replacement on
page 17.
10. Engage gun safety latch. Install spray tip. If you
are using RAC IV tip guard, refer to manual
308–644 for installation instructions.
11. Adjust pressure.
a. Turn pressure adjusting knob clockwise until
spray from gun is just completely atomized. To
avoid excessive overspray and fogging, and to
decrease tip wear and extend life of sprayer,
always use lowest possible pressure needed
to get desired results.
b. If more coverage is needed, use larger tip
rather than increasing pressure.
c. Test spray pattern. To adjust direction of spray
pattern: engage gun safety latch, loosen
retaining nut, position tip guard horizontally for
horizontal pattern or vertically for vertical
pattern then tighten retaining nut.
