Thank you very much! Sent unit out to get repacked and the person who repairs the sprayers quit. I looked at several videos and yours was the easiest to follow and understand. Piece of cake.
great video, can I please ask a question. I used to use my Titan 440i sprayer regular as a commercial joiner on all my finished walls. However being retired for the past 10 years my sprayer has just been left. I need to use it again but somewhat scared of switching it on regards any seals that may be obviously dry and or corroded. What would you recommend ? would appreciate any reply.
@ReikiTraditionSchoolofReiki hey. So was the machine stored with any material in it, or dry with out a hose attached? The ballbearings will probably be stuck, so you could take your suction pipe off. Take a look at the big ball and cage. Then look up the sprayer to the bottom of the piston and poke something up there to free the ball in the piston. Then it should run. You just don't want to fire it up and it not suck anything up due to the balls stuck as you'll burn the packings out. Potentially seals have degraded but id hope it should work like before
@@sprayaholic hi, The machine was stored completely clean and dry. I have had this machine many years for my work they are a superb machine. I've always maintained thoroughly cleaning in and out after every use. I've just managed to start to strip it down I have noticed although its the same as your video 440i the alloy pump assembly is slightly different. I don't have the wire you unplug mine is a fixed sensor that's held in place with a little Allen key that slots out you cant disconnect the wire. My piston seems to be held in place with a large nut at the top and a smaller allen key at the bottom. Have you seen this assembly before ?. Sorry for the inconvenience but can you shed any light on this assembly
@ReikiTraditionSchoolofReiki is it a pin thats holding the piston in? The allen key hole under the piston is where the small ball bearing is. If i fitted a new piston it comes complete with seal and ball bearing.
Great detailed video. I just purchased a new Titan impact 410. Seems to be a very similar version of the 440I specs wise. Looking forward to painting my house. Thanks😊
Great video. Mine will only spray on the highest setting so I'm thinking I need to do this repair as well. What is the part number for the piston? Should I go ahead and replace it as well?
Hey. If yours only works and runs up to the highest pressure. I would guess its the transducer thats failed. So do you mean you have to turn the pressure up to the highest to get it to work? Sounds like it may need a service to be sure
Hey thanks for watching. Yes i did add it. It was a unit i serviced and sold onto a newbie and they were struggling without knowing pressures do i fitted an aftermarket on for them.
Ye they are aftermarket ones.if youre in the uk, airlesspro.co.uk stock titan stuff. It depends which machine you have. Is it a 440i? Or 440 impact Or ring a titan distributor and tell them your machine model number says under the frame usually and they'll tell you the part number and price of a new piston
Looks like you have more pumps than I’ve got pants, got 2 clean and one in the wash.Off topic is it ok to run my pump with a 7.5 metre 3/16 bore just bought with graco compact and 1/8 whip hose i know its ok for woodwork but for walls/ceilings thanks for the content you make
Ha cheers bud. Yes machines coming out my ears.. decided to buy aload of second hand ones and different brands allowing me to do more varied content. Plus ive been repairing and selling on to my followers. Yes absolutely you can use a 7.5m 3/16 thats the standard hose on a gxff and on mine i use the 1/8 whip. I found a 616 was alright for emulsion but you may see pulsing going higher.. or take the 1/8 off for emulsion and you can use a .19 tip. Obviously depending on what your sprayer spec is....
Very helpful to see how it’s done 👍🏻 I’ve been offered the old style titan 640i to buy but can’t find much info on it as it’s that old . Asked on a forum and it was recommended as a solid machine but the guy wants £900 for it , is this to dear ?
@@sprayaholic thanks for the reply , yeah I’ve just looked and can get a new Graco 390 for around £1300 so may go that way although I do like the look of those tritech
Hi pal could you advise please I am thinking of spraying my solid walnut kitchen I am a a painter and decorator for over the past 35 years used several spray machine over the years more for individual use in warehouse and new build properties must coating was thinking of investing in an Apollo HVLP for my kitchen is this the best choice I won’t use it again as over the years worked myself up to contract Managment and always like to keep my hand in
Just remember the only stupid question is the one that's not asked and always take something that you learned put it in your toolbox cuz you never know when you're going to need it whether he's 12 years old or 80 years old you have to be subject to learn and take criticism
I dont think its the same sized piston. Im not 100%. What parts would you be looking for? Once you have part numbers. You csn then just search google or buy from someone who sells titan gear
@@sprayaholic I need the part that holds the intake hose and clips into the lower fluid section. The part where you put the clip is snapped off i jb welded it back together but I need a new one. It’s the part where the little push button is that knocks the ball loose. Then I also need a prime nozzle just the plastic nozzle itself the valve is still good.
Is it coming out like this video? Sounds like packings need changing if so. As it means they arnt able to keep the seal around the piston so paint gets pushed up.
Thanks for the comment. If i use it. Its for a short space of time then clean off. I wouldn't be leaving things in to soak as you say could disfigure or melt
Привет, что лучше купить: Fuji Mini Mite 4 или Graco Procontractor 9.5? Если покупать к Fuji дополнительно 3m систему стаканчиков, иглы и гибкий шланг то цена будет практически одна с Graco, но плюс Fuji что к нему можно подключить красконагнетательный бачок. У Graco для этого надо покупать модель Procomp. Минус Fuji в том что на самой турбинке нет кнопки регулировки давления. Плюс Graco что у них умная система управления давление когда турбинка включается когда ты курок нажимаешь. Кажется что пистолет у Graco превосходнее чем у Fuji
Its hard to say as it depends how hard the machines been running and how long its been used. Signs to look for are loss of pressure, it wont build pressure and paint coming out of the top. If you use it everyday then some of mine ive done just over a year some ive done over 2 years. But if you can have a look or service each year you know its in good shape to keep using, the parts arnt as expensive as having a day without using it
@@giacomoorru3420 they're mainly mechanical machines like the graco 390. No much fancy electronics like some newer models. Do less to go wrong. But ye they last along time. Keep going with yours till it fails then
Not useful at all, we were two looking at your video and we still broke the little ring on the piston. The piston doesnt fit tho, thanks a lot a hundred and more to the garbage

Awesome so glad you found the video helpful. Theres also a prime valve replacement video on my page or signs to look out for
@@sprayaholic will lock it up

What's a transducer
Hey, thanks for the video. What do you use when you are brushing the small components to 'clean' them?
Its either gun wash/Cellulose thinner then soapy water
Hey bud, great video and sorry to bother you do you have any idea for mesh filter (under the machjne) number part thanks man
Hey man thanks for watching.
730-067 is a 60 mesh i think
@@sprayaholic thanks man i really appreciate
@fernandocanas4784 if you need a different mesh number. I think its a different code at the end of those digits
Thanks for u help...i fix My titan with u help😊😊😊
Thats great to hear. Happy spraying 👏👏
Great video! Quick question, did you add the pressure gauge on the output?? I have really never seen that on a titan??
Thanks from Utah!!
Hey thanks for watching. Yes i did add it. It was a unit i serviced and sold onto a newbie and they were struggling without knowing pressures do i fitted an aftermarket on for them.
Great video bud
appreciate it
Cuestion sr. Were do you get the piston .i saw some on ebay but i think those looks cheap . Do you have any info . Thanks
Ye they are aftermarket ones.if youre in the uk, airlesspro.co.uk stock titan stuff.
It depends which machine you have. Is it a 440i? Or 440 impact Or ring a titan distributor and tell them your machine model number says under the frame usually and they'll tell you the part number and price of a new piston
I have the Titan I max. Would the procedure be basically the same?
740 sorry
it would be similar. Take a look at the parts manual for the model and it will show you a parts break down so youd get an idea of what goes where

900 you could buy a newer model of a different brand
Theres a lot of tritech and graco units about cheap. With mlre accessible parts.

Nope use Graco 395 with a fine finish tip. Way more control
Keep up the good work
appreciate the support

Funny and informative. Throw in monty python humor for the win!!!
Ha I'll do some digging
I just got a titan 345 Xi is this basically the same rig as far as parts? I need to know where to get parts for this thing.
I dont think its the same sized piston. Im not 100%. What parts would you be looking for?

What's the part number on the genuine kit?
Hey. Its 730 401 for an older model 440i
For a 440 impact its 704 586
Can you tell me the part number, on the original 440I, for the piston? @sprayaholic
Great video, but I wouldnt use acetone that can melt any plastic, better to use methylated spirits to clean down
Thanks for the comment. If i use it. Its for a short space of time then clean off. I wouldn't be leaving things in to soak as you say could disfigure or melt
I use alcohol mixed with dish soap

How often should the seals be changed?
