What happens here

After the initial flush and paint draw, if the sprayer continuously cycles or fails to build pressure, it indicates a persistent air bubble. In this case, ensure the prime/spray valve is in the 'prime' position and continue purging through the prime tube into the empty bucket until no air bubbles are visible in the paint stream. Once completely purged, switch the prime/spray valve to the 'spray' position (up for this model). Adjust the pressure control knob to your desired spraying pressure and finally, attach the spray tip and guard to the spray gun. The sprayer is now fully ready for paint application.

Goal: Ensure the system is completely air-free and prepare the spray gun for painting.

my pressure up, put my tip and guard onto my gun, and it's ready to spray. But I'm going to take it now. I saw water coming through here. I'm just going to run a bunch of my paint into my paint pan just to make sure it's all paint coming through there. There we go. Now, I'm going to check my pressure. Going to turn my pressure up to the pressure I want. I'm going to screw my tip and guard right on here. I'm ready to spray. If this thing is taking up paint, but it's got an air bubble in it and it won't build that pressure, you'll just hear it cycle, cycle, cycle. It's not building up pressure. Then you'll just take your prime tube right here. Just stick my prime tube in a bucket. Hold on to it because as soon as you flip this thing to prime, a lot of pressure is going to through shoot through this tube and it's going to shoot up in the air and throw paint everywhere. So, I'm going to hold on to it, put it down to the prime mode, and you can see now paint's coming out of it. And I'll just purge it like this till I see no air bubbles. Flip flip it back to the spray mode. So now I've purged it from any air bubbles that possibly were in there. So now I'm ready to spray. And when I'm done spraying, then I'll just clean my unit all up. And that's how you operate a small airless sprayer. It's pretty simple process.
