Operating a Graco 695 Airless Sprayer. Paint Sprayer Instructions. How to use an airless sprayer.

What happens here

Once the sprayer has been fully primed with clean water, the next step is to introduce the actual paint into the system. Carefully transfer the uptake tube from the clean water bucket into the bucket containing your paint. The presenter advises using a cut lid or similar cover for the paint bucket to minimize air exposure and prevent the paint from drying out during the priming process. With the sprayer still running and the prime knob remaining in the 'prime' position, the remaining clean water in the lines will be purged, and then the paint will begin to flow. Continue to wait and observe until paint flows smoothly and consistently from the prime outlet, ensuring there are no residual water droplets or air bubbles present.

Goal: Fill the sprayer lines with paint, purging any remaining water and air.
