What happens here

Attach the inner fed roller handle to the airless sprayer gun. Remove the roller sleeve from the handle. Set the airless sprayer's pressure to its lowest setting. Place the sprayer's prime tube into an empty bucket. Turn on the sprayer and set it to 'prime' to remove any water from the lines. Once clear water is flowing, switch the prime tube to the paint bucket. Continue priming until paint flows freely, then switch the sprayer to 'spray' mode and slowly increase pressure to about 400 PSI. Attach the roller sleeve to the handle and ensure it saturates with paint before beginning to roll.

Goal: Fill the power roller system with paint.
