CAUTION
This gun is not adjustable. To ensure proper shutoff,
screw the piston cap (18) onto the housing (1) until it
bottoms out.
Clean the front of the tip frequently during the day
to help reduce buildup.
To reduce the risk of serious injury, including splash-
ing fluid in the eyes or on the skin, or static electric
discharge when flushing:
• Ensure that the entire system, including flushing
pails, are properly grounded.
• Remove the spray tip.
• Maintain metal to metal contact between the gun
and the flushing pail.
• Use the lowest possible pressure.
Flush the pump and gun before the fluid can dry in
it.
If it is available, the flushing procedure provided in
the pump or sprayer manual should be used
instead of this procedure.
