Grounding and Electric
Requirements
The sprayer requires a 120V AC, 60 Hz, 15A circuit
with a grounding receptacle. Never use an outlet that is
not grounded or an adapter.
Do not use the sprayer if the electrical cord has a dam-
aged ground prong. Only use an extension cord with an
undamaged, 3-prong, plug.
Recommended extension cords
for use with this
sprayer:
• 25 ft (7.6 m) 18 AWG
• 50 ft (15.2 m) 16 AWG
• 100 ft (30.5 m) 14 AWG
• 150 ft (45.7 m) 12 AWG
Spray gun
: ground through connection to a properly
grounded fluid hose and pump.
Fluid supply container
: follow local code.
Solvent pails used when flushing
: follow local code.
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded
surface such as concrete. Do not place the pail on a
nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard,
which interrupts grounding continuity.
Grounding the metal pail
: connect a ground wire to the
pail by clamping one end to pail and other end to ground
such as a water pipe.
Maintaining grounding continuity
when flushing or
relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray gun
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger
the gun.
Thermal Overload
Motor has a thermal overload switch to shut itself down
if overheated.
Smaller gauge or longer extension cords may
reduce sprayer performance.

edly when it cools, always turn power switch OFF if
motor shuts down.
