Prime and Flush Storage Fluid
Before you use your sprayer for the first time or begin a
new spraying project, you need to prime the sprayer and
flush the storage fluid out of the sprayer.
Oil- or Water-based Materials
1. Make sure the power switch is OFF and the sprayer
is unplugged.
2. Separate prime tube (smaller) from suction tube
(larger).
3. Place prime tube in waste pail.
4. Submerge suction tube in water or flushing solvent.
5. Lift prime/spray valve to PRIME.
6. Plug sprayer in a grounded outlet.
7. Turn power switch ON.
8. Align setting indicator with prime/clean setting on
pressure control knob until pump starts, page 14.

seconds.

• When spraying water-based materials, flush the system
thoroughly with water.
• When spraying oil-based materials, flush the system
thoroughly with mineral spirits or compatible, oil-based
flushing solvent.
• To spray water-based materials after spraying
oil-based materials, flush the system thoroughly with
water first. The water flowing out of prime tube should be
clear and solvent-free before you begin spraying the
water-based material.
• To spray oil-based materials after spraying
water-based materials, flush the system thoroughly with
mineral spirits or a compatible oil-based flushing solvent
first. The solvent flowing out of the prime tube should not
contain any water.
• When flushing with solvents, ground pail and gun. Read
Grounding and Electric Requirements, page 10.
• To avoid fluid splashing back on your skin or into your
eyes, always aim gun at inside wall of pail.
