Electronic Pressure Control Indicators

The following is a description of the electronic pressure control
indicators.

Pressure Indicator

The pressure indicator shows the current operating pressure of
the sprayer. It has three different indications: blinking yellow,
solid yellow, and solid green.
Blinking Yellow
When the pressure indicator is blinking yellow, the sprayer is
operating between 0 and 14 bar (200 PSI). A blinking yellow
pressure indicator means:

• The sprayer is plugged in and turned “ON”.
• The sprayer is at priming pressure (little or no pressure).
• It is safe to move the PRIME/SPRAY valve between

positions.

• It is safe to change or replace the spray tip (refer to gun

manual for tip replacement instructions).

NOTE: If the pressure indicator begins blinking yellow

when the pressure control knob is set at a
higher pressure and the PRIME/SPRAY valve is
in the SPRAY position, either the spray tip is
worn, there is a leak, or the sprayer is in need
of service/repair.

Blinking Yellow

0–200 PSI

Solid Yellow

200–1800 PSI

Solid Green

1800–3300 PSI
