If paint runs down the wall when using your Graco Paint Sprayer, it’s likely that the coat is going on too thick. Try moving the gun faster. Also, consider using a tip with a smaller hole size and a wider fan. Finally, ensure the gun is far enough from the surface.
What to do if the Graco Paint Sprayer motor does not turn on?
If the motor on your Graco Paint Sprayer doesn't turn on, first check if the electrical outlet is providing power, or if the extension cord or sprayer power cord is damaged; try a different outlet, reset the circuit breaker, or replace the cords. Another possibility is that the paint is frozen or hardened in the pump. If frozen, thaw it completely before attempting to start the sprayer. If the paint has hardened, the pump packings, valves, drivetrain, or pressure switch may need replacement.
What to do if my Graco Magnum XR5 Paint Sprayer pump cycles but doesn't build up pressure?
If your Graco Paint Sprayer pump cycles but doesn't build up pressure, the pump check valves may be dirty or damaged. In this case, you should clean or replace the check valves. Alternatively, the spray/prime valve may be worn or obstructed with debris.
