SETUP
To avoid premature wear of the pressure switch,
never use more than 7.6 m (25 ft) of 1/4 in. ID outlet
hose. When longer outlet hose is needed, use 3/8
in. ID hose at a maximum of 30 m (100 ft) long. Nev-
er use 1/4 in. ID and 3/8 in. ID hose together.
See ACCESSORIES, page 17, for ordering optional
hoses.
CAUTION
WARNING
Never remove the grounding pin of the power sup-
ply cord plug. Be sure the outlet is properly
grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of an electric shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current.
Inspect the power supply cord and extension cord
before each use. Be sure they are in good condition
and have undamaged three-pin plugs. Replace
immediately if either cord is worn or damaged.
1. Assemble the system as shown in Fig 2, following the
notes on the drawing.
2. Prepare the paint according to the manufacturer’s
recommendations. Remove any skin from the top of
the paint. Strain the paint. Thin the paint as needed.
3. Be sure the electrical service is properly rated for
your sprayer and that the outlet you use is properly
grounded. Install an appropriate plug on the power
supply cord, according to your local electrical code.
Do not use an adapter. All extension cords must have
three wires. Use the chart below for selecting the ap-
propriate wire gauge for the extension cord.
