Low output

1.

For worn spray tip.

1.

Follow Pressure Relief Procedure

 

 

 

 

Warning on page 3, then replace tip.

 

 

 

 

See your separate gun or tip manual.

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.

Verify pump does not continue to stroke when gun trigger

Service pump. See page 11.

 

 

is released. Plug in and turn on sprayer. Prime with paint.

 

 

 

 

Trigger gun momentarily, then release and engage safety

 

 

 

 

latch. Relieve pressure, turn off and unplug sprayer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.

Release gun trigger. Observe resting position of pump rod

If pump consistently comes to rest

 

 

(222).

 

with rod (222) fully extended, the piston

 

 

 

 

packings and/or piston valve may be

 

 

 

 

worn. Service pump. See page 11.

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.

Electrical supply with volt meter.

CAUTION: Do not perform this check until motor armature

 

 

 

 

is determined to be good. A bad motor armature can burn

 

 

 

 

out a good board.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8.
