c. Flush the sprayer at the end of each work day, if the material you are spraying is water-based, or if it could harden in the sprayer overnight. See "Flushing". Use a compatible solvent to flush, then fill the pump and hoses with an oil based solvent such as mineral spirits.

d. For long term shutdown or storage, refer to the "Flushing" section of this manual.

Avoiding Tip Clogs

There is an easy way to keep the outside of the tip clean from material build up:

Every time you stop spraying, for even a minute, lock the gun and submerge it into a small bucket of thinner suitable for the material sprayed.

Thinner will dissolve the buildup of paint on the outside of tip, tip guard and gun much more effectively if the paint doesn't have time to dry out completely.
