LOW STATIC PRESSURE, LOW SPRAY PRESSURE
(Check with pressure gauge, see page 16 for details).
1. Pressure control valve stem screw (ref# 80) loose. (remove pressure control knob,(ref# 75), and inspect
screw for looseness. Screw should be secured to stem, (ref# 80), with Loc-Tite. If the screw turns
independent of the stem than it must be re-secured. Secure unit so it will not move. Install pressure
gauge and .021 spray tip. Obtain a piece of wood, to use as a pusher or purchase a pressure control
adjustment tool, 27C-15. Remove pressure control screw and put some Loc-Tite 609 on threads. Turn
the screw into the stem a few turns and push it in to its maximum and read pressure. Turn the screw in
or out until 3000 psi static pressure is obtained. If you obtain a pressure which higher than 3000 psi,
trigger gun to release some pressure and continue adjusting screw until correct pressure is obtained. Let
Loc-Tite set up.
2. Pressure control ball (ref# 88) and/or seat (ref# 87) worn. (remove entire pressure control valve,
(ref# 74), from sprayer. Remove valve seat, ball, retainer,(ref# 86), and spring,(ref# 85), from valve.
