Attaching the Return Hose
1. Be sure that the motor switch is turned to OFF.
2. Screw the brass fitting found in the literature set into the return
tube port on the side of the pump and tighten firmly by hand.
3. If your brass fitting is ribbed, press the return tube onto
the fitting securely. If your brass fitting is straight, thread
the return tube through the clamp provided, press the tube
onto the brass fitting, and secure the clamp.
Attaching the Paint Hose
1. Attach the high pressure hose to the paint hose port. Use
an wrench to tighten the paint hose securely.
2.
Attach the gun to the other end of the high pressure hose.
Tighten securely with two wrenches.
3.
Plug the sprayer into a properly grounded outlet or heavy
duty grounded extension cord. Do not use more than 100
feet of cord. If you must spray a long distance from a power
source, use more paint hose, not more extension cords.
Use a minimum size of 16 gauge for power extension cords
up to 50 feet in length, or 12 to 14 gauge for power
extension cords between 50 and 100 feet in length.
NOTE: Do not overtighten. Hand-tighten only. Some
threads will be visible even when fully
tightend.
