General Problem: Circuit Breaker is Tripping
Specific Problem Cause Solution
Building circuit breaker opens
as soon as sprayer is turned
on.
NOTE: Remove enclosure
mounting screws and pull
enclosure away from drive
housing. Take care not to pull
on leads from electrical cord
and power switch.
Sprayer electrical wiring is
pinched or insulation is dam-
aged. Repair or replace any damaged wiring or termi-
nals. Securely reconnect wires.
Wires between pressure con-
trol switch and control board
are pinched.
Motor armature is shorting. Check for shorts. See Motor Diagnostics, page
23. If shorts are evident, replace motor using
Motor Kit, page 26.
Control board is damaged.
CAUTION: Do not perform
control board diagnostics until
you have determined the
armature is good. A bad
motor armature can burn out
a good motor control board.
See Control Board Diagnostics, page 25.
Replace control board if damaged using Control
Board Kit, page 26.
