I had an HF unit and went to a Barrel Blaster unit which was much better, actually worked perfectly.
That said one thing I found w/ both units is you have to do what @unclebilly said above. Drain out the media and then hold your gloved hand over the nozzle and pull the trigger. This will backflow out any paint chips or blockages out of the pickup and nozzle hose that are reducing flow.
Also keep a good nozzle tip on it. Change it often w/ new. Ceramic ones last longer (not sure what HF has), and the more course your media the faster they wear out.
