What they say

now hazardous way so that's a great feature with this grater now the next thing I want to talk about is um the prime valve this is another thing um because one of my pet peeves with all airless sprayers is the prime tube and typically the prime tube we always have them separated I usually never use this clip the clip gets lost the clip gets thrown away we usually get rid of them right off the bat we even don't have them zip tied here because we keep the prime tube in a separate bucket than the paint we usually keep the prime tube in a bucket of water and this is pretty dang cool because I've done it many times in my career and every single painter that's ever worked for me has done this and if you've done this you know exactly what I'm talking about when you go and you hit the release pressure the prime valve leaving some pressure by flicking that down there's a mass amount of pressure behind the sprayer if you're not holding on to this it comes flying out of your bucket of paint it shoots paint everywhere and we've done it many times in garages outside it'll whip across your face shoot paint all over you and it's an absolute disaster it all the surprises the heck out of you it makes a big mess and then you got to clean up the mess so now they've added this is really cool I mean I don't know why an engineer didn't Design This you know 20 years ago but it has a heavy weighted diffuser now on the end of the Prime tube so it's not as light it's not likely to fly out they've also got a lever now that is a gradual release lever so it won't instantly release all the pressure out of the bomb it gradually releases the pressure when you um hit it to Prime so this new feature Titan is calling it the new lever action Prime all so lever action gradual release great feature it's not new to the um 440 impact but it is a feature I absolutely love about the Titan 440 impact and this is the um ball Pusher valve right here if you've used an airless sprayer for any amount of time at all you know that that ball if you let your sprayer set it crowds it gets stuck there's a lot of different you
