Store & dispose of hazardous fluids according to manufacturer, local, state & national guidelines. ALWAYS wear protective eye wear, gloves, clothing and respirator as recommended by fluid manufacturer.
ALWAYS INSPECT SPRAYING AREA
• ALWAYS keep spraying area free from obstructions.
• ALWAYS 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 the spray unit.
SPRAY GUN SAFETY
• ALWAYS set safety lock on the gun in "LOCKED" position when not in use and before servicing or cleaning.
• NEVER remove or modify any part of the gun.
• ALWAYS REMOVE SPRAY TIP when cleaning. Flush unit with LOWEST POSSIBLE PRESSURE.
• ALWAYS 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 RELIEF PROCEDURE as outlined on page 9.
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.
SPRAY TIP SAFETY
Use extreme caution when cleaning or changing spray tips. If the spray tip clogs while spraying, engage the gun safety latch immediately.
• ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE and then remove the spray tip to clean it.
• NEVER wipe off build up around the spray tip.
• ALWAYS remove tip & tip guard to clean AFTER pump is turned off and the pressure is relieved by following the
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE.
KEEP CLEAR OF MOVING PARTS

Safety Warnings
GROUNDING
Ground the sprayer and 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.
Always ground all of these components:
• Sprayer: Connect a ground wire and clamp (supplied) to a true earth ground.
• Fluid Hose: use only grounded hoses.
• Spray gun or dispensing valve: grounding is obtained through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
• Object being sprayed: according to your local code.
• All solvent pails used when flushing should only be metal pails which are conductive.
Once each week, check electrical resistance of hose (when using multiple hose assemblies, check overall resistance of un-pressurized 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.
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 PROCEDURE 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, damaged or non-conductive paint hoses. Do not allow kinking or crushing of hoses or allow
it to vibrate against rough, 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 on page 9.
• ALWAYS use approved high pressure fittings and replacement parts.
• ALWAYS ensure fire extinquishing equipment is readily available and properly maintained.
Do not use halogenated solvents in this system. The prime valve, 2 gun manifold 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.
Safety Warnings
FLUSHING
Reduce risk of injection injury, static sparking or splashing by following the specific cleaning procedure on page 8.
• ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE on page 9.
• 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 140º F. Some of these are: acetone, benzene, ether,
gasoline and naphtha. Consult your supplier to be sure.
• NEVER smoke in the spraying/cleaning area.
PREVENT STATIC SPARKING FIRE/ EXPLOSIONS
ALWAYS be sure all equipment and objects being sprayed are properly grounded. Always ground sprayer, paint bucket and object being sprayed. See "grounding" on page 4 for detailed 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 the spray area. Do not plug in or unplug any electrical cords in the spray area, this 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 un-pressurized 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.
Important: United States Government safety standards have been adopted under the Occupational
Safety & Health Act. These standards, particularly the General Standards, Part 1910, & the
Construction Standards, part 1926 should be consulted.
WHEN SPRAYING & CLEANING WITH FLAMMABLE PAINTS OR PAINT THINNERS:
1. When spraying with flammable liquids, unit must be located a minimum of 25 feet away from 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 and spraying object. 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.
GAS ENGINE PRECAUTIONS
Gasoline & its vapors are extremely flammable & explosive.Fire or explosion can cause severe burns or death.
WHEN ADDING FUEL
• Turn engine OFF and let engine cool at least 2
minutes before removing gas cap.
• Fill fuel tank outdoors or in well ventilated area.
• Do not overfill fuel tank. Fill tank to approximately
11⁄2 inches below top of neck to allow for fuel
expansion.
• Keep gasoline away from sparks, open flames, pilot
lights, heat and other ignition sources.
• Check fuel lines, tank, cap and fittings frequently for cracks
or leaks. Replace if necessary.
WHEN STARTING ENGINE
• Make sure spark plug, muffler, fuel cap and air cleaner are in place.
• Do not crank engine with spark plug removed.

source. They can ignite gasoline vapors.
Engines give off carbon monoxide, an odorless, colorless, poison gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, fainting or death.
• Start and run engine outdoors.
• Do not start or run engine in enclosed area, even if doors or
windows are open.
Starting engine creates sparking.
Sparking can ignite nearby flammable gases.
Explosion and fire could result.
• If there is natural or LP gas leakage in area, do not
start engine.
• Do not use pressurized starting fluids because vapors
are flammable.
Running engines produce heat. Engine parts, especially mufflers, become extremely hot.
Severe thermal burns can occur on contact.
Combustible debris, such as leaves, grass, brush, etc. can catch fire.
• Allow muffler, engine cylinder and fins to cool before touching.
• Remove accumulated combustibles from muffler area and
cylinder area.
• Install and maintain in working order a spark arrester
before using equipment on forest covered, grass covered
and brush covered unimproved land. The state of California
requires this (Section 4442 of the California Public Resources
Code). Other states may have similar laws. Federal laws apply
on federal land.
Rapid retraction of starter cord (kickback) will pull hand and arm toward engine faster than you can let go.
Broken bones, fractures, bruises or sprains could result.
• When starting engine, pull cord slowly until resistance is
felt, then pull rapidly.
• Remove all external equipment/engine loads before starting
engine.
• Direct coupled equipment components such as, but not
limited to, blades, impellers, pulleys, sprockets, etc. must
be securely attached.
Unintentional sparking can result in fire or electric shock.
Unintentional start up can result in entanglement, traumatic amputation, or lacerations.
BEFORE PERFORMING ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS
• Disconnect spark plug wire and keep it away from
spark plug.
• Disconnect battery at negative terminal (only
engines with electric start).
WHEN TESTING FOR SPARK
• Use approved spark plug tester.

braided airless hose only.
NOTE: Do not use thread sealer on swivel unions as they are made to self-seal.
Use thread seal on tapered male threads only.
2. Fill the packing nut/wet cup with
5 drops of Airlessco Throat Seal
Oil (TSO).
3. Grounding
WARNING
To reduce the risk of static sparking, fire or explosion which can result in serious bodily injury and property damage, always ground the sprayer and system components and the object being sprayed, as instructed in the safety warning section of this manual.
4. Flush the sprayer
As per "Flushing Procedure" in this manual.
Pressure Relief Procedure
IMPORTANT!
To avoid possible serious body injury, always follow this procedure whenever the sprayer is shut off, when checking it, when installing, changing or cleaning tips, whenever you stop spraying, or when you are instructed to relieve the pressure.
1. Engage the gun safety latch. Refer to the
separate instruction manual provided with
your gun on its safety features and how to
engage safety latch.
2. Turn the unit off.
3. Disengage the gun safety latch and trigger
the gun to relieve residual fluid pressure.
Hold metal part of the gun in
4. Turn Prime/Pressure Relief Valve (PR Valve)
to the open (priming) position to relieve
residual fluid pressure.
There will be a wider gap between valve handle and cam body when in open position. In the closed position there is only a very slight gap.
.
Note: The valve handle can move both clockwise and counter clockwise and can face different directions.
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 the gun safety latch and take your unit to an authorized Airlessco Service Center.
Daily Maintenance
1. Keep the displacement pump packing nut/wet cup lubricated with Airlessco TSO (Throat Seal Oil) at all times. The
TSO helps protect the rod and the packings.
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 Adjustment" procedure is followed:
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.
3. Inspect suction nut daily. Suction nut must be tight at all times.

Starting Up
1. Learn the Functions
of the Controls.
PRIME/PRESSURE (PR) RELIEF VALVE is used to prime pump and to relieve pressure from gun, hose and tip.
Prime/Pressure Relief Valve (Prime/PR Valve) the unit when in OPEN position. (It is in open position when there is a wider gap between valve handle and cam body) there is only a very slight gap between handle & body.
When closed the system is pressurized. Handle as a loaded firearm!
PRESSURE CONTROL KNOB is used to adjust pressure. Turn clockwise (CW) to increase pressure and counterclockwise (CCW) to decrease pressure.
2. Prepare the Material
a. Prepare the material according to the material
manufacturer's recommendations.
b. Place the suction tube into the material
container.
3. Starting the Sprayer
a. Prime/PR Valve must be "OPEN" in the priming
position.
b. When you have ensured that the gun safety latch
is engaged, attach tip and safety guard.
c. Turn the ON-OFF Engine Switch to the "ON"
position.
d. Turn Pressure Control Knob clockwise to prime
the pump.
e. After the pump is primed, turn Prime/PR Valve to
the "Closed" position.
f. Turn Pressure Control Knob to the desired spray
pressure.
g. Disengage the gun safety latch and you are
ready to spray.
4. Adjusting the Pressure
a. Turn the Pressure Control Knob Clockwise to
increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease
pressure.
b. Always use the lowest pressure necessary to
completely atomize the material.
Note: 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.
Starting Up
Follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure".
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 self-cleaning tip.
Avoiding Tip Clogs
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.
When you spray into the paint bucket, always use the lowest spray pressure and maintain firm metal to metal contact between gun and container.
To stop the unit in an emergency, turn the motor off. Then relieve the fluid pressure in the pump and hose as instructed in the
Pressure Relief Procedure.
Be sure to relieve pressure in the pump after filling with Airlessco
Pump Conditioner.
5. When Shutting off the Sprayer
a. Whenever you stop spraying, even for a short break,
follow the "Pressure Relief Procedure".
b. Clean the tip & gun as recommended in the seperate
Gun Manual supplied with the gun/
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". 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 the
"Flushing" section of this manual.

3. Disconnect two clutch leads on Electrical Board
from leads on clutch.
4. Using a 1/16" allen, loosen set screw in Pressure
Control Knob and remove knob.
5. Using a 1/2" nutdriver or 1/2" deep socket, remove
nut from pressure control shaft. This will allow
removal of electrical control board from frame.
6. Replace Electrical Board Assembly in reverse order.
Adjust pressure as per procedure below, "Pressure
Calibration on the Electrical Control Board".
Pressure Calibration on the Electrical Control Board
1. Turn "Pressure Calibration" Trimpot adjustment on
electrical control board in the counter clockwise
direction at least 15 revolutions.
2. Connect 5000 psi glycerine pressure guage on output
of pump between fluid pump & airless hose to
monitor Fluid Pump Pressure.
3. Start engine and run at maximum RPM. Turn
Prime/Pressure Relief Valve to the open (Prime)
position. Turn Pressure Control Knob to maximum
position (fully clockwise).
4. Using an insulated screwdriver, adjust "Pressure
Calibration" Trimpot by turning clockwise until the
clutch engages. When the clutch engages the pump
will commence Priming. When pump is primed, turn
the Prime/Pressure Relief Valve to the Closed (Pres
sure) Position
The pump will begin to pressurize and the clutch will disengage at a low pressure. Continue turning the Trimpot clockwise to increase pressure to 3000 psi.
5. Trigger gun. The pressure should drop approximately
350-400 psi (when using a 3/8" hose), the clutch will
engage and build pressure to 3000 psi and disengage.
Trigger gun several times to ensure proper pressure
setting.
6. Turn Pressure Control Knob to minimum position. The
clutch should disengage and pump stop moving.
7. Secure leads with tie strap.
8. Replace cover on unit. Ensure the leads are not
pinched or damaged in the process of replacing covers.

Clutch Replacement
REMOVE CLUTCH AS FOLLOWS:
1. Remove clutch and electrical box cover.
2. Disconnect the power lead coming from the engine
to the electrical box and feed it through the back of
the electrical box.
3. Using a 1/2” wrench along with a 1/2” socket
remove the four bolts attaching the engine to the
frame.
4. Remove the engine from the frame and set it on
your work bench so the clutch face is facing you.
5. Disconnect two clutch leads from electrical board
leads. Carefully cut the small Zip-tie holding the
clutch wires to the gear housing.
INSTALL NEW CLUTCH AS FOLLOWS:
1. Apply Anti-seize lubricant to the pinion shaft
coming out of the gearbox.
2. Feed the black clutch wires into electrical box &
plug into matching wires from the control board.
3. Install the new zip-tie (comes with the clutch
replacement kit) to the wire mount, keeping the
wires from the path of the clutch.
4. Apply blue Lock-tite to the screws and reinstall into
the gearbox.
5. Mount clutch face to the clutch mount. Apply
blue Lock-tite to the three screws used for
mounting the clutch face.
6. Set the engine back on the frame and tighten the
nuts and bolts so that you still can move the
engine back and forth fairly easily.
7. Using a feeler gauge, slide the motor forward
until you reach a spacing of .010” between the
clutch face and the field. Once you reach this
point finish tightening the engine bolts, alternat-
ing to keep the air gap the same on all sides of
the clutch.
8. Replace the clutch cover and electrical box cover.
Troubleshooting - Clutch Does Not Engage
STEP 1: Ensure that the pressure control knob (POT) is in the maximum (CW) position.
STEP 2: Remove the clutch and electrical box covers.
STEP 3: Check all electrical connections between the engine magneto, sensor, control board and clutch for loose connections or damaged leads.
STEP 4: Disconnect the two leads from the control board (blue) and the clutch assembly (black).
Using a multimeter, with the engine at maximum RPM, pressure control knob in the maximum position and the prime valve open (priming) position, test the DC voltage across the boards leads
(blue). This voltage must be 13-14 VDC. If the readings are correct, the board, sensor and magneto are okay and the problem is the clutch assembly. If this is the case, proceed to Step 5. If the voltage is outside this range go to Step 7.
STEP 5: Check the spacing between the clutch field and plate. The gap should be .010” to .014”. If the gap is greater than .014” the gap is too wide. If this gap is too wide, replace the clutch assembly.
STEP 6: When the DC voltage from the board is not 13-14 VDC, disconnect the control board lead
(black) from the engine magneto lead (pink), located on the side of the engine. With the engine at maximum RPM (3600), pressure control knob in maximum (CW) position and prime valve open
(priming), read the AC voltage from the magneto lead to the sprayer frame. This reading should be
19-24 VAC. If outside this range, contact your local Honda repair facility for magneto replacement. If the magneto is producing the proper AC voltage, continue to Step 7.
STEP 7: Test the sensor by reading the resistance between the red and black wires. The resistance runs between 1.5-3K ohms. A defective sensor usually shows no resistance (open). If the reading is outside standards, replace the sensor. An alternative method to test the sensor, is to plug a new sensor into the board and see if the clutch will engage. Caution! When using this method, ensure prime/ pressure valve is in the prime position. This is important because the sensor plugged into the board is not measuring pressure in the fluid section.
STEP 8: When Steps 6 & 7 have been completed and the magneto and sensor check good, the electrical control board is the only item left, replace the board.
