| Problem | Cause | Solution |
| Motor runs and pump strokes but output is low or there is no output | Too small an extension cord or cord is ungrounded | Replace cord |
| Clogged intake strainer | Replace | |
| Loose suction tube or loose fittings | Tighten, use thread sealant or sealing tape | |
| Check
motor brushes, check for loose leads and terminals, minimum 1/2 inch brush
length, broken or misaligned springs
|
Replace parts as needed | |
| Check motor armature for shorts using an armature tester | Replace motor if bad | |
| Check to see if pump continues to stroke when gun trigger is released | Relieve pressure, service pump | |
| Check if intake valve ball and piston ball are seating properly | Remove intake valve and clean. Check ball and seat for nicks, replace if necessary. Stain paint to remove particles that could clog the pump | |
| Check for leaking around throat packing nut which may indicate worn or damaged packings | Replace packings, check piston valve seat | |
| Defective pressure control transducer | Replace transducer | |
| Motor runs but pump does not stroke | Check displacement rod connecting pin | Replace pin |
| Check for frozen or hardened paint in pump | Thaw or clean out paint, slowly increase pressure setting to see if motor starts | |
| Be sure crank in drive housing rotates | Check drive housing assembly for damage and replace as needed | |
| Motor is hot and runs intermittently | Determine if sprayer was operated at high pressure with small tips, which causes low motor rpm and excessive heat build up | Decrease pressure setting or increase tip size |
| Be sure ambient temperature where sprayer is located is no more than 90 degrees and sprayer is not located in direct sun | Move sprayer to cooler area | |
| Determine if sprayer was turned on, pressurized, but not operating for a long time | Turn off sprayer whenever you stop spraying for a while and relieve fluid pressure | |
| GAS
PUMPS
Engine won't start |
Engine switch is off, out of gas, oil level is low, spark plug cable damaged, fuel shut off lever is off | Correct problem |
| Cold engine | Use choke |
