Important Safety Information
Read all safety information before operating the
equipment. Save these instructions.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
To reduce the risks of re or explosion, electrical shock
and the injury to persons, read and understand all
instructions included in this manual. Be familiar with the
controls and proper usage of the equipment.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING Improper installation of the grounding
plug can result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not
connect the green grounding wire to either at blade terminal. The
wire with insulation having a green outer surface with or without
yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected to the
grounding pin.
Check with a qualied electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt
as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided. If the plug will not t the outlet, have the proper
outlet installed by a qualied electrician.

IMPORTANT: 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. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss
of power and overheating. A 12 gauge cord is recommended. If
an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with
the suffix W-A after the cord type designation. For example, a
designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be
appropriate for outdoor use.
IMPORTANT: When the sprayer is used with a generator
or uncontrolled line voltage, the use of Titan’s “Line Surge
Protector” (P/N 800-935) is recommended.
WARNING: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Flammable vapors, such as solvent and paint vapors, in
work area can ignite or explode.
PREVENTION:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area. Keep a good
supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air
within the spray area free from accumulation of ammable
vapors. Keep pump assembly in well ventilated area. Do not
spray pump assembly.
• Use extreme caution when using materials with a ashpoint
below 100ºF (38ºC). Flashpoint is the temperature that a uid
can produce enough vapors to ignite.
• Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes,
portable electric lamps and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and
gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light
switches on or o when ammable vapors are present.
• Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Hold spray gun rmly to the side of a grounded pail when
triggering into pail.
• If there is static sparking or if you feel a shock, stop operation
immediately.
• Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed.
Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container
labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint
and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
• Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated
hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide,
methylene chloride and trichloroethane. They are not
compatible with aluminum. Contact the coating supplier
about compatibility of material with aluminum.
• Keep a re extinguisher in work area.
WARNING: INJECTION INJURY
A high pressure paint stream produced by this equipment
can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to
serious injury and possible amputation. See a physician
immediately.
PREVENTION:
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
• Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For
example, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.
• Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without the
nozzle tip guard in place.
• Only use a nozzle tip specied by the manufacturer.
• Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the
case where the nozzle tip clogs while spraying,
ALWAYS lock gun trigger, shut pump o, and release all
pressure before servicing, cleaning tip or guard, or changing
tip. Pressure will not be released by turning o the motor.
The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valve must be
turned to their appropriate positions to relieve system
pressure. Refer to PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE described in
the pump manual.
• Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while
unattended. When the unit is not in use, turn o the unit and
relieve the pressure in accordance with the manufacturer’s
instructions.
• High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and
cause serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs,
seek medical attention immediately.
