WAGNER PROJECT SPRAYER Manual Del Usario página 10

Lubricating your sprayer prior to storage is important to prolong the life of the pump housing components.
1. Turn the sprayer upside-down while the material
container is removed. Squeeze a small amount of
standard household oil into both the intake (a) and
return (b) openings on the pump housing.

3. Replace the suction tube.
• Parts of your sprayer wear out with use and require regular replacement. They include the atomizer valve, piston
and spring. These parts are not covered by your sprayer warranty.
• More abrasive materials such as latex paints and stains cause these parts to wear out faster than less abrasive
materials such as oil-based paints and stains, thin stains and sealers.
atomizer valve:
The atomizer valve is shaped to cause the material to spin as it
comes out of the sprayer. The spinning breaks the material up
into a fine spray. As more material goes through the atomizer
valve, it wears out the valve and the shape of the valve
changes. When it changes too much to produce a good spray
pattern, the valve needs to be replaced.

Piston and Spring:
The average life of a piston and spring will vary depending on
the types of material being sprayed.
Replace the piston if the sprayer takes longer than 15 seconds
with the suction tube or 3 minutes with the remote suction set
to prime when well lubricated, or if there is an excess amount
of material leaking, refer to the troubleshooting suggestions
listed in this manual. Replace the spring if you notice that it is
broken when you clean the sprayer.
To replace either the atomizer valve or the piston and
spring, follow steps 1-4 in Cleaning the Components
(page 9), and replace the old parts with new ones. When

replaced, follow steps 1-5 in Reassembly (page 9).
