STARTING UP continued
4. Adjusting the Pressure
a. Turn the Pressure Control Knob CW to increase pressure and CCW to decrease pressure.
b. Always use the lowest pressure necessary to completely atomize the material being sprayed.
CAUTION - Operating the sprayer at higher pressure than needed, wastes material, causes early tip wear and shortens sprayer life.
c. If more coverage is needed use a larger tip rather than increasing the pressure.
d. Check the spray pattern. The tip size and angle determines the pattern width and flow rate.
5. Cleaning a Clogged Tip.
WARNING
- Follow the "Pressure Relief
Procedure" on page 6 .
To reduce the risk of injection, never hold your hand, body, fingers or hand in a rag in front of the spray tip when cleaning or checking for a cleared tip. Always point the gun toward the ground or into a waste container when checking to see if the tip is cleared or when using a selfcleaning tip.
WARNING
- Clogged standard (flat) tip - clean only after the tip is removed from the gun and pressure has been relieved.
FOLLOW THE PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE WARNING ON PAGE 6.
6. When Shutting off the Sprayer
a. Whenever you stop spraying, even for a short break, follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure Warning" on page 6.
b. Clean the tip & gun as recommended on page 13.
c. Flush the sprayer at the end of each work day, if the material you are spraying is water-based, or if it could harden in the sprayer overnight. See "Flushing" pages 1 and 2. Use a compatible solvent to flush, then fill the pump and hoses with an oil based solvent such as mineral spirits.
d. For long term shutdown or storage, refer to page 1.
WARNING
- Be sure to relieve pressure in
the pump after filling with mineral spirits.
There is an easy way to keep the outside of the tip clean from material build up:
Every time you stop spraying, for even a minute, lock the gun and submerge it into a small bucket of thinner suitable for the material sprayed.
Thinner will dissolve the buildup of paint on the outside of tip, tip guard and gun much more effectively if the paint doesn't have time to dry out completely.
WARNINGS
DO NOT USE halogenated solvents in this sytem. The prime valve and most airless guns have aluminum parts and may explode. Cleaning agents, coatings, paints or adhesives may contain halogenated hydrocarbon solvents. DON'T TAKE CHANCES!
Consult your material suppliers to be sure. Some of the most common of these solvents are:
Carbontetrachloride, Chlorobenzene, Dichloroethane,
Dichloroethyl Ether, Ethylbromide, Ethylchloride,
Tethrachloethane. Alternate valves and guns are available if you need to use these solvents.
Note: United States Government safety standards have been adopted under the Occupational
Safety & Health Act. These standards, particularly the General Standards, Part 1910 & Construction
Standards, Part 1926 should be consulted.
WARNINGS CONTINUED ON NEXT PAGE.......
WARNINGS continued
HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY CAN CAUSE EXTREMELY SERIOUS INJURY. Handle as you would a
loaded firearm. Follow PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE on page 6. Observe all warnings.
MEDICAL ALERT - Airless Spray Wounds
If any fluid appears to penetrate your skin, get
EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE AT ONCE.
DO NOT TREAT AS A SIMPLE CUT.
Tell the doctor exactly what fluid was injected.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection in the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important to treat the injury surgi-
cally as soon as possible. DO NOT DELAY treatment to research toxicity.
Toxicity is a concern with some exotic coatings injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
INJECTION HAZARD
Fluids under high pressure from spray or leaks can penetrate the skin and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation.
NEVER point the spray gun at anyone or any part of the body.
NEVER put hand or fingers over the spray tip. Do not use rag or other materials over your fingers. Paint will penetrate through these materials and into the hand.
NEVER try to stop or deflect leaks with your hand or body.
ALWAYS have gun tip guard in place when spraying.
ALWAYS lock gun trigger when you stop spraying.
ALWAYS remove tip from the gun to clean it.
NEVER try to "blow back" paint, this is not an air spray sprayer.
ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCE-
DURE, as shown on page 6, before cleaning or removing the spray tip or servicing any system equipment.
Be sure equipment safety devices are operating properly before each use.
Tighten all fluid connections before each use.
ALWAYS INSPECT SPRAYING AREA
Keep spraying area free from obstructions.
Make sure area has good ventilation to safely remove vapors and mists.
NEVER keep flammable material in spraying area.
NEVER spray in vicinity of open flame or other sources of ignition.
Spraying area must be at least 20 ft. away from spray unit.
SPRAY GUN SAFETY
ALWAYS set safety lock on the gun in "LOCKED" position when not in use and before servicing or cleaning.
DO NOT remove or modify any part of gun.
ALWAYS REMOVE SPRAY TIP when cleaning. Flush unit with LOWEST POSSIBLE PRESSURE.
CHECK operation of all gun safety devices before each use.
Be very careful when removing the spray tip or hose from gun. A plugged line contains fluid under pressure.
If the tip or line is plugged, follow the PRESSURE RE-
LIEF PROCEDURE as outlined on page 6.
MEDICAL TREATMENT
If any fluid appears to penetrate your skin, get EMER-
GENCY CARE AT ONCE. DO NOT TREAT AS A
SIMPLE CUT.
* Go to an emergency room immediately.
* Tell the doctor you suspect an injection injury.
* Tell him what kind of material you were spraying with and have him read NOTE TO PHYSICIAN above.
TIP GUARD
ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the spray gun while spraying. The tip guard alerts you to the injection hazard and helps prevent accidentally placing your fingers or any part of your body close to the spray tip.
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
NEVER alter equipment in any manner.
NEVER smoke while in spraying area.
NEVER spray highly flammable materials.
NEVER use around children.
NEVER allow another person to use sprayer unless he is thoroughly instructed on its' safe use and given this operators manual to read.

electrical outlet.
Note: The valve handle can move both CCW and CW and can face different directions.
3. Disengage gun safety latch and trigger gun to relieve residual fluid pressure. Hold metal part of the gun in contact with grounded metal pail.
Use minimum pressure.
5. Re-engage gun safety latch and close Prime/Pressure Relief Valve.
If the SPRAY TIP OR HOSE IS CLOGGED, follow Step 1 through 5 above. Expect paint splashing into the bucket while relieving pressure during Step 4. If you suspect that pressure hasn't been relieved due to damaged prime/pressure relief valve or other reason, engage gun safety latch and take your unit to an authorized Airlessco Service Center.
6
HOSES
Tighten all fluid connections securely before each use.
High pressure fluid can dislodge a loose coupling or allow high pressure spray to be emitted from the coupling and result in an injection injury or serious bodily injury.
Use only hose having a spring guard. The spring guard helps protect the hose from kinks or other damage which could result in hose rupture and cause an injection injury.
NEVER use a damaged hose, which can result in hose failure or rupture and cause an injection injury or other serious bodily injury or property damage. Before each use, check entire hose for cuts, leaks, abrasion or bulging of cover, or damage or movement of couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately. Never use tape or any device to try to mend the hose as it cannot contain the high pressure fluid. NEVER ATTEMPT TO RECOUPLE THE HOSE.
High pressure hose is not recoupleable.
GROUNDING
Ground the sprayer & other components in the system to reduce the risk of static sparking, fire or explosion which can result in serious bodily injury and property damage. For detailed instructions on how to ground, check your local electrical code.
ALWAYS ensure switch is in OFF position before plugging unit in.
Always ground all of these components.
1. Sprayer: plug the power supply cord, or extension cord, each equipped with an undamaged three-prong plug, into a properly grounded outlet. DO NOT USE AN
ADAPTER.
Use only a 3 wire extension cord that has a 3 blade grounding plug, and a 3 slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. (Note: The table on the top of the next page shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and name plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
2. Air Hoses; use only grounded hoses.
3. Fluid hose: use only grounded hoses.
4. Spray gun or dispensing valve; grounding is obtained through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
5. Object being sprayed; according to your local code.
6. All solvent pails used when flushing.
Once each week, check electrical resistance of hose
(when using multiple hose assemblies, check overall resistance.) Overall (end to end) resistance of unpressurized hose must not exceed 29 megohms
(max.) for any coupled length or combination of hose lengths. If hose exceeds these limits, replace it immediately.
Never exceed 500 ft. (150 m) overall combined hose length to assure electrical continuity.

Precaution is the best insurance against an accident.
When starting the motor, maintain a safe distance from moving parts of the equipment. Before adjusting or servicing any mechanical part of the sprayer, follow the
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE on page 6.
AVOID COMPONENT RUPTURE
This sprayer operates at 3000 psi (205 bar). Always be sure that all components and accessories have a maximum working pressure of at least 3000 psi to avoid rupture which can result in serious bodily injury including injection and property damage.
NEVER leave a pressurized sprayer unattended to avoid accidental operation of it, which could result in serious bodily injury.
ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCE-
DURE whenever you stop spraying and before adjusting, removing or repairing any part of the sprayer.
NEVER alter or modify any part of the equipment to avoid possible component rupture which could result in serious bodily injury and property damage.
NEVER use weak or damaged or non-conductive paint hose. Do not allow kinking or crushing of hoses or allow it to vibrate against rough or sharp or hot surfaces.
Before each use, check hoses for damage and wear and ensure all fluid connections are secure.
REPLACE any damaged hose. NEVER use tape or any device to mend the hose.
NEVER attempt to stop any leakage in the line or fittings with your hand or any part of the body. Turn off the unit and release pressure by following PRESSURE
RELIEF PROCEDURE.
PREVENT STATIC SPARKING FIRE/EXPLOSIONS
ALWAYS be sure all equipment & objects being sprayed are properly grounded. Always ground sprayer, paint bucket and object being sprayed. See grounding on page 6 for grounding information.
Vapors created when spraying can be ignited by sparks.
To reduce the risk of fire, always locate the sprayer at least 20 feet (6 m.) away from spray area. Do not plug in or unplug any electrical cords in the spray area, which can create sparks, when there is any chance of igniting vapors still in the air. Follow the coating & solvent manufacturers safety warnings and precautions.
Use only conductive fluid hoses for airless applications.
Be sure gun is grounded through hose connections.
check ground continuity in hose & equipment. Overall
(end to end) resistance of unpressurized hose must not exceed 29 megohms for any coupled length or combination of hose length. Use only high pressure airless hoses with static wire approved for 3000 psi.
FLUSHING
Reduce the risk of injection injury, static sparking or splashing by following the specific cleaning process.
ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCE-
DURE on page 6.
ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a metal pail and use the lowest possible fluid pressure during flushing.
NEVER use cleaning solvents with flash points below
140 degrees F. Some of these are: acetone, benzene, ether, gasoline, naptha. Consult your supplier to be sure.
NEVER SMOKE in the spraying/cleaning area.
WHEN SPRAYING & CLEANING WITH FLAMMABLE PAINTS AND THINNERS
1. When spraying with flammable liquids, the unit must be located a minimum of 25 feet away from the spraying area in a well ventilated area. Ventilation must be sufficient enough to prevent the accumulation of vapors.
2. To eliminate electrostatic discharge, ground the spray unit, paint bucket & spraying object. See GROUNDING on pg. 6. Use only high pressure airless hoses approved for 3000 psi which is conductive.
3. Remove spray tip before cleaning gun and hose. Make contact of gun with bucket and spray without the tip in a well ventilated area, into the grounded steel bucket.
4. Never use high pressure in the cleaning process. USE MINIMUM PRESSURE.
5. Do not smoke in spraying/cleaning area.

SPRAY TIP SELECTION
Spray tip selection is based on paint viscosity, paint type, and job needs. For light viscosities (thin paints), use a smaller tip; for heavier viscosities (thicker paints), use a larger tip size.
Spray tip size is based on how many gallons of paint per minute can be sprayed through the tip. Do not use a tip larger than the maximum pump flow rate or capacity the sprayer can accommodate. Pump flow rate is measured in gallons per minute (GPM).
TIP SELECTION CHART
REV -TIPS (P.N. 560-XXX)
FLAT TIPS (P.N. 570-XXX)
For sizes not shown, call factory for availability.
FULL RANGE OF TIP SIZES
Tip Identification: All tips have a 6 digit part number. The first 3 digits identifies it as a Rev-Tip (560) or a Flat
Tip (570). The 4th digit is the fan width - the number is half the fan width, ie. 5 means a 10” fan when it is held
12” from the surface. The 5th and 6th digit is for the orifice size and is measured in thousands of an inch,
ie: 17 = 0.017 inch- the higher the number, the larger the tip.

PATTERN WIDTH
Thickness of the paint coat per stroke is determined by spray tip "fan width", rate of the spray gun movement, and distance to surface.
SPRAY TIP SELECTION
Two tips having the same tip size, but different pattern widths will deliver the same amount of paint over a different area
(wider or narrower strip).
A spray tip with a narrow pattern width makes it easy to spray in tight places.
SPRAY TIP REPLACEMENT
During use, especially with latex paint, high pressure will cause the orifice to grow larger. This destroys the pattern.
Replace tips before they become excessively worn. Worn tips waste paint, cause overspray, make cutting-in difficult, and decreases sprayer performance.

SPRAY TECHNIQUE
Good Spray Gun Technique is at the core of any spray paint operation. Operator skill and efficiency is as important as good equipment and good paint. Good spray technique is a skill that can be quickly learned by following these simple instructions.
If you are not familiar with spraying techniques, we recommend that you study this section of your manual and practice the proper technique on pieces of cardboard or a suitable surface.
Equal spray distance
Equal amount of paint
CORRECT DISTANCE
CORRECT GUN ANGLE
Equal amount of paint
Equal spray distance
RIGHT
RIGHT
WRONG
Shorter spray distance
Excessive paint spray
TILTED GUN ANGLE causes uneven paint coating
Insufficient paint spray
Longer spray distance
WRONG
TILTED GUN
WRONG
Hold the spray gun 12 - 15 inches away from the work surface and keep it perpendicular (straight) to the surface. Move the spray gun parallel to the work and at a right angle to the surface.
Keep even distance to surface.
10
RIGHT
Move the gun at a steady rate in order to apply a good coverage. The wet coat should be just under the thickness at which a run or sag will occur. Slow gun movement or gun held too close will result in an overly wet or thick wet or thick coat coverage that is likely to run or sag.
Do not wave the spray gun. This waving is called arching. Instead, hold the spray gun at a 12 to 15 inch distance perpendicular from the work.
WRONG
The closer the spray gun is held to the work, the thicker the paint is deposited and the faster the gun must be moved to prevent sags and runs. Holding the gun too far from the work will cause excessive fog, overspray, and a thin and grainy coat.
SPRAY TECHNIQUE
TOTAL SPRAYGUN MOVEMENT - arm movement - full sweep
TRIGGER
POINT
TRIGGER POINT
The Actual Paint Stroke
It is important to "trigger" the gun after gun movement
(arm movement) has started and release trigger (shut gun off) before gun movement ends. Gun movement is always longer than actual paint (spray) stroke. In that manner, even blending and uniform paint coat thickness is achieved over the entire surface. When the gun is in motion as the trigger is pulled, it deposits an even amount of paint.
Spray with uniform strokes from left to right and from right to left, holding stroke speed, distance, lapping, and triggering as uniform as possible.
Overlap the previous pass by half the width of the spray pattern. Aim at the bottom of the previous pass.
FOR EVEN PAINT COAT, OVERLAP
HALF THE WIDTH OF EACH PAINT
STROKE.
TAILING GOOD PATTERN FOG, OVERSPRAY
Adjust pressure control knob so that paint is completely atomized from the spray gun. Insufficient pressure will result in "tailing".
POOR PATTERN GOOD PATTERN
Too much pressure will result in excess fog and overspray, excessive tip wear, and increased sprayer wear and tear.
INSIDE CORNER OUTSIDE CORNER
Always use the lowest pressure possible to obtain desirable results.
Test the spray pattern on a piece of cardboard or other surface.
"Inside" and "outside" corners can be sprayed.
Aim the spray gun toward the center of the corner. The spray pattern is divided in half, and the edges of the spray pattern on both walls are the same.

TEST THE PATTERN
Good, full Spotty Pattern
Increase Pressure.
REGULAR MAINTENANCE
1.
Keep the displacement pump packing nut/wet cup 1/3 full of TSO (Throat Seal Oil) at all times. The TSO helps protect the packings and rod.
2.
Inspect the packing nut daily. Your pump has a patented Triple Life Packing System. Packing life will be extended a minimum of three times if the following "Packing Tightening" procedure is followed:
Inspect the packing nut daily. If seepage of paint into the packing nut and/or movement of the piston upward is found (while not spraying), the packing nut should be tightened enough to stop leakage only, but not any tighter. Overtightening will damage the packings and reduce the packing life.
ELECTRIC MOTOR MAINTENANCE
1. LUBRICATION - This motor is supplied with prelubricated ball bearings, lubricated for the life of the bearing.
2. MOTOR BRUSHES need periodic inspection and replacement as wear indicates. Brush wear is greatly influenced by individual application. It is recommended that brush wear be checked at early intervals of operation in order to determine future required inspections. Standard Leeson brushes for this motor have an initial length of
3/4". When the brushes are worn to a length of 3/8", they should be replaced.
3. TO CHANGE BRUSHES, follow the procedures below: a) Unplug the machine.
b) c)
Open the two covers at the rear of the motor.
Loosen the screw holding the brush terminal and remove the brush lead.
d) e) f)
Push the brush retainer clip (PN 331-398) in and remove.
Remove the worn brushes (one on each side of motor).
Install new brushes in reverse order and replace covers.
NOTE: For longer life, new brushes (Part No. 331-131) need to have a run in period. After changing brushes, set up the machine for spraying. Use a bucket of water and Coro-Chek mixture, a 50' x 1/4" airless hose, airless gun with a .017 tip on unit, turn the Prime/PR Control Valve to the Prime position and turn the unit on. Turn the ON/
OFF Pressure Control Knob to maximum pressure (fully CW position) and let the pump cycle at high speed and zero pressure for 20 minutes. This will allow the brushes to "run in" properly, giving a longer life.

CAUSE SOLUTION
Control Settings
Power Source
Fuse
STEP 1: Ensure that the ON-Off toggle switch is in the "ON" position and that the
Pressure Control Knob is fully CW (maximum pressure). Also check that the unit is plugged in.
STEP 2: Lower the pressure control assembly and check if the green power light on the board is lit. If the light is "OFF", proceed to
Step 3. If the light is "ON", go to Step 7.
STEP 3: Use a multimeter to check for 110 volts VAC across the L1 and L2 terminals on the board. If there is no voltage at these leads, there is no power to the unit. Check power source (outlet, breakers, extension cord and power cord).
STEP 4: If the machine has power and the green light is "OFF", test the fuse for continuity or replace with a new fuse.

STEP 5: If the fuse is okay, disconnect the two red motor leads (S1 & S2) and test for continuity between the two leads. Continuity shows that the motor's thermal coupler has not tripped. No continuity means that the thermal coupler has opened due to excessive motor heat. If the motor is still hot to touch, allow to cool and retest. If the motor is cool and there is no continuity on the red leads, contact your local Leeson repair facility to repair/ replace the thermal coupler.
STEP 6: If all checks out fine in Steps 1 through 5 and the green light is still out, the pressure control assembly is defective and must be replaced.
STEP 7: If the green light is "ON", the power source, fuse and thermal coupler are okay. Plug another sensor into the board. If the unit starts, the sensor was faulty and must be replaced. When a replacement sensor is not available, use a multimeter to test the resistance between the BLACK and RED wires on the sensor lead. The resistance should be approximately 1.5-3.5 kohms.
A faulty sensor usually reads zero resistance (open).
STEP 8: With the machine still "OFF", remove the potentiometer lead from the board and read the resistance between the red and black wires. This must be 8 - 12 kohms. If outside this range, replace the potentiometer.
NOTE: A bad POT will usually show no resistance (open).
STEP 10: Remove the two black motor leads (A1 &A2) and test for continuity between them. Continuity is an indication that the motor is sound. The lack of continuity, points to a problem in the motor. If there is no continuity on these two leads, check the motor brushes. Ensure that the brushes are evenly worn and make solid contact with motor commutator. Replace the brushes if they are less than 3/8" long. If the brushes are okay, replace the motor.
STEP 11: Calibrate the pressure control assembly in accordance with the instructions on page 18.
STEP 12: If the unit fails to calibrate and all components in Steps 1-10 test okay, the pressure control assembly needs to be replaced.

PRESSURE CONTROL ASSEMBLY (PCA)
Note: Anytime a sensor, pressure control assembly (board) or both are replaced,
the following three calibrations must be performed.
1. ZERO CALIBRATION
1. Place prime/pressure relief valve in the prime (open) position.
2. Set the presssure control knob to the minimum setting (CCW).
3. Remove the screws (Fig. 17, Item 24) and lower the pressure control assembly. Ensure PCA is grounded.
4. Ensure the jumper (Fig. 10, Item 9) is on the "P-ZR" terminal. Note: This jumper comes with a new pressure control assembly (board) and is installed on the "P-ZR" terminals. If you are "Zero Calibrating" a pressure control assembly presently in the unit, remove Jumper from Single Terminal P-ZR and place on both terminals P-ZR. When Zero Calibration is complete replace jumper on a single terminal of P-ZR.
5. Turn machine "ON" and ensure it is not cycling.
6. If the yellow light on the electrical board is ON, use an insulated screwdriver to turn the "ZERO" trimpot counter-clockwise until the light goes out. Then turn it clockwise until the light just comes back on.
7. If the yellow light is OFF, turn the "Zero" trimpot clockwise, just until the light comes on and stop.
NOTE: If the yellow light remains constantly "ON", or "OFF" during this calibration, the sensor is defective and should be replaced.
8. When calibration is complete, move jumper from both "PZ-R" terminals to single terminal on P-ZR.
2. PRESSURE CALIBRATION
1. Attach a 50', 1/4" airless hose, airless gun with 0.017 tip and a 5000 psi glycerine filled pressure gauge to the pump.
2. Place the suction tube into a bucket of Coro-chek and water.
3. Turn Prime/pressure relief valve to the prime (open) position.
4. Complete the ZERO calibration, as per "ZERO CALIBRATION".
5. Turn pressure control knob clockwise until machine starts to prime.
6. Place the prime/pressure relief valve in the pressure (closed) position.
7. While watching pressure gauge, slowly adjust the Pressure Trimpot (clockwise to increase and counter clockwise to decrease) until the maximum static pressure is 3000 psi, with the pressure control knob fully clockwise. Trigger the gun several times to ensure pressure returns to 3000 psi .
3. LOW PRESSURE VOLTAGE TRIMPOT CALIBRATION
1. Attach a 50', 1/4" airless hose, airless gun with .017 tip and a 5000 psi glycerine filled pressure gauge to the pump.
2. Place the suction tube into a bucket of antifreeze (or Coro-chek) and water.
3. Turn pump ON and turn up pressure control until the machine starts to prime.
4. Place the prime/pressure relief valve in the pressure (closed) position.
5. Pressurize pump to 600 psi.
6. Trigger the gun several times noting the deadband (the amount of pressure drop before the pump rebuilds to set pressure).
7. If deadband is greater than 100 psi, adjust the low pressure voltage trimpot so that the deadband is less than
100 psi and the pressure increase after the gun trigger is released is less than 200 psi. These pressures are guidelines and may vary slightly from pump to pump.
