Purging and Priming the Sprayer
All new units are performance-tested at the factory and are shipped with test fluid in the fluid section to prevent
c
orrosion during shipment and storage. If you have already used your pump, some water or solvent used in cleaning
may remain in the fluid section. Whether your sprayer is new or if you have already used it, this fluid must be purged
a
nd thoroughly cleaned out of the system prior to use. Follow the steps below.
1. Remove oiler cap using a straight-
slot screwdriver. Squirt separating
oil (P/N 0516913) supplied with your

household oil can be substituted if
necessary. Replace cap.
