Pressure Relief Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever 
you see this symbol.
1. Engage trigger lock.
2. Turn engine ON/OFF switch to OFF.
3. Move pump switch to OFF and turn pressure control 
knob fully counterclockwise.
4. Disengage trigger lock. Hold metal part of gun firmly 
to side of grounded metal pail, and trigger gun to 
relieve pressure.
5. Engage gun trigger lock.
6. Turn prime valve down to DRAIN position. Leave 
prime valve down until ready to spray again. 
7. If you suspect the spray tip or hose is clogged or 
that pressure has not been fully relieved after follow-
ing the steps above, VERY SLOWLY loosen tip 
guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to relieve 
pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Clear 
hose or tip obstruction.
Grounding
To ground sprayer: Attach sprayer grounding clamp to 
earth ground.
Air and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive 
hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined 
hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check elec-
trical resistance of hoses. If total resistance to ground 
exceeds 29 megohms, replace hose immediately.
Spray gun:
 
Ground through connection to a properly 
grounded fluid hose and pump.
Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow local code. 
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded 
surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive sur-
face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts 
grounding continuity.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or 
relieving pressure: 
Hold metal part of the spray gun 
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger 
the gun.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is 
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury 
from pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, 
splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the 
Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying 
and before cleaning, checking, or servicing the 
equipment.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk 
of static sparking.  Static sparking can cause fumes 
to ignite or explode.  Grounding provides an escape 
wire for the electric current.
