Warnings
The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. The exclama-
tion point symbol alerts you to a general warning and the hazard symbols refer to procedure-specific risks. When
these symbols appear in the body of this manual, refer back to these Warnings. Product-specific hazard symbols and
warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this manual where applicable.
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire
and explosion:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
• Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running or hot; shut off engine and let it cool. Fuel is flammable and can
ignite or explode if spilled on hot surface.
• Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths
(potential static arc).
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes are
present.
• Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
• If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment until you
identify and correct the problem.
• Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from dispensing device, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may look
like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate SURGICAL TREATMENT.
• Keep clear of fluid outlet and leaks.
+
• Use guns, hoses and other components with pressure ratings equal to or higher than the pump rating.
• Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure before servicing or cleaning.
• Do not point dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
• Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch, cut or amputate fingers and other body parts.
• Keep clear of moving parts.
• Do not operate equipment with protective guards or covers removed.
• Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equipment, follow
the Pressure Relief Procedure and disconnect all power sources.

Warnings
WARNING
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
• Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system component.
See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.
• Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all
equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings. For complete information about your
material, request MSDS from distributor or retailer.
• Do not leave the work area while equipment is energized or under pressure. Turn off all equipment and
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when equipment is not in use.
• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately with genuine manufacturer’s
replacement parts only.
• Do not alter or modify equipment.
• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your distributor for information.
• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
• Do not kink or over bend hoses or use hoses to pull equipment.
• Keep children and animals away from work area.
• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.
CARBON MONOXIDE HAZARD
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon monoxide, which is colorless and odorless. Breathing carbon monoxide
can cause death.
• Do not operate in an enclosed area.
TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or swallowed.
• Read MSDSs to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
• Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose of it according to applicable guidelines.
BURN HAZARD
Equipment surfaces and fluid that’s heated can become very hot during operation. To avoid severe burns:
• Do not touch hot fluid or equipment.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
You must wear appropriate protective equipment when operating, servicing, or when in the operating area of
the equipment to help protect you from serious injury, including eye injury, hearing loss, inhalation of toxic
fumes, and burns. This equipment includes but is not limited to:
• Protective eyewear, and hearing protection.
• Respirators, protective clothing, and gloves as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer.

Introduction and General Information
Introduction and General Information
Front Guidance System
Introduction
The Front Mechanical Guidance System provides the
user with a pointer for alignment on either the left or right
side of the vehicle.
This manual and those listed below provide pre-setup
requirements, parts lists, setup, operation, and mainte-
nance instructions for the RoadLazer system. This man-
ual includes instructions for a 2-pump system. For
1-pump systems, all parts remain the same with the
exception of plugged ports for missing pumps and
hoses.
™
Video Guidance System (optional)
The Video Guidance System provides the user with
video of a bore sight view for alignment on either the left
or right side of the tow vehicle. The system consists of a
9 in. monitor, interfacing cables, video camera and
mounting bracket.
General Information
The RoadLazer is mounted to a vehicle and is used to
stripe up to two stripes in one or two colors with glass
beading.
RPS 2900 Hydraulic Pumps
The RPS 2900 Hydraulic Pump supplies paint to the
spray guns. There are two displacement pumps. Two
displacement pumps allows the user to have a two-color
system.
The RoadLazer consists of a Programmable Skipline
Controller, Displacement Pumps, two Paint Spray Guns,
and two Bead Spray Guns.
Paint Spray Guns
Programmable Skipline Controller
The Paint Spray Guns are pneumatically triggered to
spray paint stripes when commanded by the Program-
mable Skipline Controller.
The Programmable Skipline Controller consists of the
control box and a 30 ft cable. It is the main control for the
RoadLazer system and turns the spray guns and acces-
sories on and off.
Bead Spray Guns
The Bead Spray Guns are pneumatically triggered to
spray reflective materials when commanded by the Pro-
grammable Skipline Controller.

Setup
The RoadPak can be mounted in the front or rear of the
vehicle bed as well as in any orientation desired. The
base of the RoadPak is 39.5 in. x 49.5 in. (1.0m x
1.25m).
Setup
Charge Battery
If the battery is newly purchased or has not been used
for a long time, charge it before you use it.
Installing RoadLazer Into Vehicle
ti16653a
RoadLazer needs to be properly secured to prevent it
from moving during transportation and operation.
Paint drums are heavy and could shift from side to side
when the vehicle is cornering. The paint drums could
fall from the vehicle and cause injury or death. Secure
the drums when the vehicle is in transport or spraying.
Paint could splash from the paint drum bung adapters
when the paint drums are full and the vehicle is mov-
ing. Do not overfill the paint drums.
ti16654a
RoadPak Installation
(24G624, 24G625)
Load RoadPak into vehicle using a forklift or a hoist that
is rated for the weight capacity of the RoadPak. For
RoadPak weight information see Technical Data, page
27.
ti16664a
After mounting the RoadPak on the vehicle, firmly
secure the RoadPak to the vehicle using the tie-down
brackets at all four corners, or by bolting the RoadPak
through the bed of the truck to the frame in all four loca-
tions.

Pressure Relief Procedure
NOTE: Always relieve pressure with the guns--not
with the filter drain valves.
INJECTION HAZARD
The system pressure must be manually relieved to pre-
vent the system from starting or spraying accidentally.
Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the
skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an
injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts,
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you:

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
When Flushing system, always connect grounding
cord.
NOTE: If you suspect that the spray gun or hose is com-
pletely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully
relieved after following the steps above, very slowly
loosen the hose end coupling, and relieve pressure
gradually. Then loosen it completely. Then clear the
valve or hose.
