contained herein may be reproduced in any shape or form without the express written consent of Harbor Freight  
Tools. Diagrams within this manual may not be drawn proportionally. Due to continuing improvements, actual  
product may differ slightly from the product described herein. Tools required for assembly and service may not  
be included.  
For technical questions or replacement parts, please call 1-800-444-3353.  
 
9. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Do not reach over or  
across running machines.  
10. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow  
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool cords and hoses  
periodically and, if damaged, have them repaired by an authorized technician. The  
handles must be kept clean, dry, and free from oil and grease at all times.  
11. Disconnect power. When not in use disconnect from compressor.  
12. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Check that keys and adjusting wrenches  
are removed from the tool or machine work surface before plugging it in.  
13. Avoid unintentional starting. Do not carry any tool with your finger on the trigger,  
whether it is plugged in or not.  
14. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool  
when you are tired.  
15. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged  
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its  
intended function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts  
or mounting fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any  
part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician.  
Do not use the tool if any switch does not turn On and Off properly.  
16. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as  
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.  
17. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical  
replacement parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty.  
18. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning  
labels on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while  
taking drugs. If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.  
19. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required, it must be  
of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the air compressor without  
heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or cause electrical  
damage to the air compressor. Check air compressor manual.  
20. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a  
qualified technician.  
21. Keep aware of air hoses. Be careful not to trip over air hoses while working. Check  
air connections periodically.  
22. Do not operate Spray Gun near open flames, pilot lights, heaters, or any other  
heat source. Make sure you have adequate ventilation. Most solvents and paints are  
extremely flammable, especially when sprayed. Never smoke cigarettes in the same  
room you are working in.  
23. Read labels on cleaning solvents and paint coatings. Chlorinated solvents such  
SKU 46719  
Page 3  
 
as 111-Trichloroethane and Methylene Chloride (also known as methyl-chloride)  
can chemically react with aluminum and may explode. Many paint sprayers contain  
aluminum. Contact solvent manufacturer or paint supplier if your are in doubt.  
24. Paints and solvents may be harmful or fatal if swallowed or inhaled. Always  
use a respirator when spraying. Avoid prolonged skin contact with solvents or paints  
as they will irritate skin. After contact, immediately wash off exposed area with hot,  
soapy water.  
25. Check all Spray Gun Seals and Air Connection. Before use, make sure the  
(#14) is fully tightened to the Cup (#13). Make sure the air hose is securely fastened  
to the Body (#3).  
Lid  
Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending  
on variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool perfor-  
mance.  
Warning:The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual  
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be under-  
stood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built  
into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.  
WARNING: This product contains or, when used, produces a chemical known to the  
State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

add no more than 5.3 ounces of paint. Replace  
the Lid (#14).  
2. Connect the air hose to the Regulator (#30)  
and set the pressure to 43 PSI. Do not exceed  
43 PSI.  
3. Squeeze the Trigger (#15) to test the  
pattern.  
4. Spray from a distance of approximately four to eight inches while keeping the Spray Gun  
perpendicular to the ground.

Gun or the paint will apply unevenly.  
6. When you finish spraying, release the Trigger (#15), and disconnect the air hose.  
7. Empty the Cup (#13). Never store the Cup (#13) with paint in it.  
Warning! Even after the compressor is shut down, the Cup (#13) may still be pressurized.  
Open it slowly and carefully.  
Adjustments

Adjustment Screw Valve Assy. (#29). You may also adjust the pressure with the air  
compressor. Make sure you do not exceed the recommended 43 PSI.  
2. You can adjust the amount of fluid coming through the gun with the Fluid Control  
Knob (#19). Loosen the Fluid Contol Knob Lock (#20), make the adjustment, and tighten  
the Fluid Contol Knob Lock (#20).

Maintenance  
Cleaning (Gun should be attached to compressor to complete the cleaning process)  
Warning!! Do not use paint strippers on this unit as they will damage the aluminum. Never  
allow the unit to lay on it’s side while paint is in the Cup (#13).  
1. Empty paint from Cup (#13) and add small amount of clean solvent. Replace Lid (#14)  
and shake Cup (#13) vigorously. At the lowest possible pressure, spray out the solvent into  
a waste bucket (make sure you are wearing respirator and eye protection).  
2. Empty Cup (#13) of remaining solvent and repeat the process until the Cup (#13) solvent  
appears clean and free of the paint.  
3. Disconnect air supply. Remove surplus solvent and wipe the Cup (#13) clean with a lint  
free cloth.  
Note: The Cup (#13) may be fully immersed in solvent for no more than 24 hours if need-  
ed.  
4. Remove the Air Cap (#1) and the Fluid Nozzle (#4). Remove the Gasket (#5) and unscrew  
the Packing Screw (#6), and remove it. Use the Brush (#12) to clean the Paint Needle (#22)  
with solvent. When replacing the Packing Screw (#6), do not over-tighten. Over-tightening  
of the Packing Screw (#6) will result in leakage. Unscrew the Fluid Control Knob Lock  
(#20) and remove the Fluid Control Knob (#19). Use the Brush (#12) to clean the gun body  
opening that the Fluid Control Knob (#19) fits in, and clean all of the parts.  
Reassemble gently. Do not force any parts or they will break.  
Note: Always dispose of paints and solvents properly. Consult the local hazardous  
waste authority for proper disposal procedures and sites.
