Operating a Titan 440i airless sprayer. Airless Sprayer Instructions.

What happens here

Submerge both the prime hose and the paint uptake hose into a bucket containing clean water. Turn on the sprayer using the on/off switch, then adjust the pressure valve to a low position. While holding the prime knob firmly, switch it to the 'prime' position. Allow the sprayer to run until water is visibly and consistently flowing out of the prime tube. Once clear water is observed, flip the prime switch back to the 'up' position (spray mode). This action effectively purges all air from the sprayer's internal lines.

Goal: Remove air from the sprayer lines using water.

keeps it stable. And we start off by uh we got our sprayer already plugged in. We got a on the Titan Titan 440i, we've got an onoff valve or uh switch. We've got the pressure valve right here. And then on the side that has a small hose coming out is the um prime knob. And this is what purges all the air out of the line because this is an airless sprayer. And to start off, we'll have the prime hose in the water and the paint hose. This is what um uptakes your paint um to get it into the sprayer. We put both of those into clean water. And then we turn the sprayer on, turn the pressure down to a low position, and um then we'll take and come to the prime knob right here. Hold on to this prime knob. You'll hold on to this. When you hit the prime, a lot of pressure could cause it to shoot up in the air. Turn it on. Let it completely run till water starts coming out of this prime tube. Once you see water coming out, flip the prime switch up. And then the sprayer is purged of all air. Run water through it. Purge the air out. Now you're ready to transfer your paint uptake to the paint.
