Important Electrical Information
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. A 14 gauge or 12 gauge cord is recommended.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W-A after the cord type designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use.
WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury
Always wear appropriate gloves, eye protection, clothing, and a respirator or mask when painting. Hazardous vapors – Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or come in contact with the body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
Do not operate or spray near children. Keep children away from equipment at all times. Do not overreach or stand on unstable support. Keep effective footing and balance at all times. The power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.
To Prepare the Material
Stir the spraying material thoroughly. Unscrew the cap from the spray gun. Secure the thinning accessory to the side of the container as shown. The accessory should sit perfectly vertical. Fill the container with spray material to the bottom of any of the notches on the accessory.
Add the appropriate thinning agent (Wagner Paint Easy or mineral spirits for solvent-based materials). For every notch that the fluid level in the container rises, the spray material is diluted by 10%.
After the material has been properly thinned and strained, fill the container to the top of the neck.
To Flush the Unit
Unplug the power cord. Loosen the material container by 1/2 turn, but do not remove it. This will relieve any pressure leftover in the system. Pull the trigger so that the material inside the spray nozzle drains back into the container.
Unscrew the container and remove it. Empty any remaining material back into the material container. Pour a small amount of the appropriate cleaning solution into the cup (Water=1/2 full. Mineral spirits=1/4 full).
Attach the cup to the nozzle and plug in the sprayer. Spray the cleaning solution into a safe area. While spraying, gently shake the spray gun. This slight agitation will help break up smaller particles of spray material. Unplug the power cord.
Loosen the material container by 1/2 turn, but do not remove it. This will relieve any pressure leftover in the system. Pull the trigger so that the material inside the spray nozzle drains back into the container
Easy to Clean
Make sure the power cord is unplugged. Push the tab below the trigger, twist, and separate the spray gun from the turbine. Wipe the exterior of the cup and gun until clean. Unscrew the nut and remove the air cap and nozzle.
Clean all parts with a cleaning brush and the appropriate cleaning solution. Reassemble all parts when clean. Clean the rear of the gun (d) with the appropriate cleaning solution. Use a thin layer of petroleum jelly to lubricate the O-ring (e). Reassemble the spray gun.
Unplug the spray gun. Remove the filter cover from the turbine by removing the two screws holding it in place. Remove the dirty filters and replace them with new ones. The smooth side of the air filter must be placed toward the turbine. Secure the cover back onto the turbine.

FAQ About Wagner 0518050 Double Duty HVLP Paint Sprayer
Bottom line
Overall, this will save you a lot of time if you have a lot to paint. There’s going to be a threshold you’ll have to figure out if it’s worth it or not. The finish alone will make it worth it.
But also remember to use high-quality paint like Sherwin Williams if you really care about the piece. A high solids paint that levels beautifully makes all the difference. This is a great entry-level sprayer, and every time we use it we remark how great the finish looks. I’m amazed every time.
And over time it saves you money because you are not buying cans of spray paint. Even with polyurethane, you can save a ton by buying a quart of water-based and using the sprayer. Plus you’re not breathing in the fumes from the oil-based spray paints.
