Information
Read all safety information before operating
the equipment. Save these instructions
This symbol indicates a hazardous situation,
which, if not not avoided could result in death
or serious injury.
To reduce the risks of fire or explosion,
electrical shock and the injury to persons, read
and understand all instructions included in this
manual. Be familiar with the controls and
proper usage of the equipment.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite,
causing property damage and/or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
• Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be
provided to keep the air within the work area
free from accumulation of flammable vapors.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static
electricity sparks, open flames, pilot lights, hot objects,
cigarettes, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting
power cords or working light switches.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in
working order.
• Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 100° F (38°
C). A fluid’s flashpoint is the temperature at which vapors
from the fluid could ignite if exposed to a flame or spark.
Consult your paint supplier for information about a fluid’s
flashpoint.
• Keep the unit in a well ventilated location away from the
work area. The pump contains arcing parts which emit
sparks.
HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other
materials may be harmful if inhaled,
causing severe nausea, fainting, or
poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance
that vapors may be inhaled. Read all instructions with
the mask to insure that it will provide the necessary
protection against the inhalation of harmful vapors.
HAZARD: GENERAL
May cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before
operating any equipment. Never leave the unit
running while unattended. Unplug whenever not in
use.
• Never immerse the unit into any liquid.
• Comply with all appropriate local, state and national
codes governing ventilation, fire prevention, and
operation.
• This paint roller system is designed to be used
with authorized parts only. When using this system
with parts that do not comply with the minimum
specifications and safety devices of the system
manufacturer, the user assumes all risks and
liabilities.
• Before each use, check all hoses for cuts, leaks,
abrasion or bulging of cover or damage or movement
of couplings. If any of these conditions exist, call
Customer Service.
Additional warnings are contained on the tag
molded to the electrical cord of the unit. Be sure
to read this tag before operating the unit.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This product is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
WARNING - Improper installation of the
grounding plug can result in a risk of
electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary,
do not connect the green grounding wire to either
flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having a
green outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the
grounding wire and must be connected to the grounding
pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the
grounding instructions are not completely understood, or
if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and
has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated
below. A temporary adapter which looks like the adapter
illustrated in the figure below may be used to connect
this plug to a 2 pole receptacle as shown if a properly
grounded outlet is not available.
The temporary adapter should be used only until a
properly grounded outlet as shown below can be
installed by a qualified electrician. The green colored
rigid ear lug or the grounding wire extending from the
adapter must be connected to a permanent ground such
as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever
the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal
screw.

Extension Cord Selection
If an extension cord is used, make sure that it is of the
3-conductor type with NEMA connectors so a continuous
grounding circuit is provided from the tool to the power
circuit receptacle. Make sure your extension cord is in
good condition. Also, be sure that the conductor size is
large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop which
will cause loss of power and possible motor damage to
the unit. A 14 or 12 gauge cord is recommended.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must
be marked with the suffix W-A following the cord type
designation. For example, SJTW-A to indicate that it is
acceptable for outdoor use.
