The Wagner Control Pro 300 Move 18V is a high-performance airless sprayer. Before using the device, ensure you have read the safety instructions, particularly regarding the danger of injection injury. Always perform the Pressure Relief Procedure before shutting off the unit, performing maintenance, or clearing clogs. The device requires BOSCH AMPShare compatible ProCore 18V batteries (minimum 2.0 Ah).
Components and Description
The sprayer consists of a main unit with a hopper, a spray gun, a high-pressure hose, and a flow regulator. Key controls include the ON/OFF switch, the PRIME/SPRAY knob, and the flow regulator. The indicator light displays battery status and error messages.
Assembly
- Carrying strap: Attach the straps to the quick-release fasteners at the top and bottom of the device.
- Hose: Connect the high-pressure hose to the outlet valve using two wrenches to ensure a tight fit.
Preparation
Before spraying, ensure the inlet filter is properly installed in the hopper. We recommend testing the system with water first to check for leaks. Stir and sieve your paint before filling the hopper. Select the appropriate tip and gun filter based on the material (e.g., 311 tip with red filter for thin materials, 515 tip with white filter for thick materials).
Spraying Technique
For best results, keep the spray gun perpendicular to the surface at a distance of 25 to 30 cm. Move your entire arm back and forth rather than flexing your wrist. Overlap each stroke by about 30% to ensure an even coating.
Troubleshooting and Unclogging
If the spray pattern is poor or the gun fails to spray, check for clogs in the spray tip, gun filter, or inlet filter. Never use sharp instruments to clean the tip. If the sprayer does not start, check the battery charge and the ON/OFF switch position.
Cleanup and Maintenance
Thorough cleaning is essential for longevity. After use, purge the paint hose, rinse the hopper, and flush the sprayer with a suitable cleaning agent. Regularly check and clean the inlet filter and spray gun components. For long-term storage, pour a small amount of light household oil into the inlet valve and gun.
