Warnings

The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. The exclamation 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 or on warning labels, 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

When flammable fluids are present in the work area, such as gasoline and windshield wiper fluid, be aware that flammable fumes can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and explosion:

• Use equipment only in well ventilated area.

• Eliminate all ignition sources, such as cigarettes and portable electric lamps.

• Keep work area free of debris, including rags and spilled or open containers of solvent and gasoline.

• Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.

• Ground all equipment in the work area.

• Use only grounded hoses.

• 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.

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 forms from distributor or retailer.

• 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.

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

High-pressure fluid from dispense valve, 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.

• Do not point dispense valve at anyone or at any part of the body.

• Do not put your hand over the end of the dispense nozzle.

• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

• Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.

Warnings

WARNING

TOXIC FLUID HAZARD

Hazardous fluid or toxic fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin, inhaled, or swallowed.

• Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using.

• Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of hazardous fluid according to all local, state, and national guidelines.

• Always wear protective eye wear, gloves, clothing, and respirator as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer.

MOVING PARTS HAZARD

Moving parts can pinch 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 in this manual. Disconnect power or air supply.

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.

Installation

Grounding

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking and electric shock. Electric or static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Improper grounding can cause electric shock. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.

• Pump: Use a ground wire and clamp as shown in Fig 1.

• Air and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive hoses.

• Air Compressor: Follow manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Spray fun and dispensing valve: Ground through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

3. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true earth ground. (Fig 1).

FIG. 1

Pressure Relief Procedure

Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you see this symbol.

• Fluid supply container: Follow your local code.

• Truck bed or platform: Follow your local code.

• Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow your local code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.

• To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure: Hold a metal part of the dispensing valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the valve.

Grounding the Pump

1. Remove the ground screw (Z) and insert through the eye of the ring terminal at the end of ground wire (Y).

2. Fasten the ground screw back into the pump and tighten securely.

This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.

1. Close the pump’s air regulator.

2. Close the supply pump’s bleed-type master air valve (required in this system).

3. Hold a metal part of the dispensing valve firmly to a grounded metal waste container and open the dispensing valve until pressure is fully relieved.

If you suspect that the dispensing valve, extension, or grease fitting coupler is clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the steps above, VERY SLOWLY loosen the coupler or hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely and clear the clog.

The Typical Installation (shown in fig 2) is only a guide for selecting and installing this system. It is not an actual system design. Contact your local Graco representative for assistance in designing a system to suit your particular needs.

Positioning the Elevator

1. Position the elevator where the ceiling is at least 8 ft (2.6 m) high. The elevator is 90 in (2.4 m) when fully raised.

2. Provide adequate space in front of the elevator for changing drums and in back and on the side for plumbing.

Mounting the Elevator

1. Secure the elevator base (A) to the mounting base (102) using screws (104), lockwashers (103), and nuts (105). (Fig 3)

2. Bolt the mounting base (102) to the floor for stability.

3. Verify the elevator is level. Loosen on or two screws (104) on the elevator base and place shims under the base, if necessary.

4. Place the inductor plate (2, 18, or 22) on the mounting base (102).
