Turn the Power Switch (33) of the Paint Sprayer to its “OFF” position and unplug the tool from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures.

Inspection, Maintenance, and

Cleaning

1.BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the Paint Sprayer and its accessories. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, damaged electrical wiring/air hose, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.

2.IMPORTANT: The Spray Gun must be cleaned immediately after each use. Improper cleaning is a com- mon reason for the Spray Gun not to operate properly. Materials dry

If a flammable solvent is used, ad- here to the following: (1) Follow all of the solvent manufacturer’s clean up instructions and safety precau- tions at all times. (2) If collecting flushed solvents into a metal con- tainer, transfer into a larger non- metal container, and flush the metal container.
