Titan ControlMax Conversion HACK!. What Can and Can't You Use.

What happens here

Before loading the sprayer with paint, it is crucial to perform a pressure test with water to check for any leaks in the newly assembled system. Fill the sprayer's reservoir with water and turn on the sprayer, gradually increasing the pressure to its maximum. Observe all connections (gun, hose whip, and main hose fittings) for any drips or leaks. Water, being less viscous than paint, will reveal leaks more readily. If any leaks are detected, turn off the sprayer, release pressure, tighten the problematic fitting further (or reapply Teflon tape if necessary), and retest. Once the system holds pressure without leaks, it is safe to load paint. Finally, attach the appropriate HEA spray tip to the gun's guard.

Goal: Perform a pressure test with water to ensure no leaks in the converted sprayer setup before loading paint. Tighten any leaking connections, then install the correct HEA spray tip.

them up very tight with teflon tape so you don't get any leaking use water turn it on test it with water first before you run any paint do this thing did you want to load this thing up with paint and have paint leaking out of this test it with water first the viscosity of water is thinner so if you're going to get any leaking it'll leak with water before it would leak with paint so there is your setup right there and that is our green whip this setup will also conversion kit will work with our green exit flex whip we've got our gun all set up ready to go we've got some water here and we're going to put it to the pressure test to make sure we don't have any knee leaks okay we've got a week right here because that's not tight enough we've got full pressure we've got no leaks we're going to put on a tip spray it with a tip make sure our tip is all the way in snugged ready to go it sprays no leaks there you have it conversion kit is all set up so there you have it our adapter kit our
