This equipment is for professional use only.
Read all instruction manuals, tags, and labels before operating the equipment.
Use the equipment only for its intended purpose. If you are not sure, call your Graco distributor.
Do not alter or modify this equipment. Use only genuine Graco parts and accessories.
Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated component in your system. This
equipment has a 115 psi (0.8 MPa, 8 bar) maximum working pressure at 115 psi (0.8 MPa, 8 bar) maximum incoming air pressure.
Use fluids and solvents which are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. Refer to the Tech-
nical Data section of all equipment manuals. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
Aluminum pumps only: Never use 1.1.1–trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated
hydrocarbon solvents or fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum equipment. Such use could result in a chemical reaction, with the possibility of explosion.
Do not use hoses to pull equipment.
Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces. Do not expose
Graco hoses to temperatures above 180F (82C) or below –40F (–40C).

WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Improper grounding, poor air ventilation, open flames, or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and result in fire or explosion and serious injury.
Ground the equipment. Refer to Grounding on page 7.
If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop pump-
ing immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable fumes from solvents or the fluid
being pumped.
Keep the work area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
Electrically disconnect all equipment in the work area.
Extinguish all open flames or pilot lights in the work area.
Do not smoke in the work area.
Do not turn on or off any light switch in the work area while operating or if fumes are present.
Do not operate a gasoline engine in the work area.

WARNING
PRESSURIZED FLUID HAZARD
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can splash fluid in the eyes or on the skin and cause serious injury.
Do not stop or deflect fluid leaks with your hand, glove, or rag.Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 11 before cleaning, checking, or servicing the
equipment.
Tighten all fluid connections before each use.
Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace parts immediately if worn, damaged, or
loose. Permanently coupled hoses cannot be repaired.
TOXIC FLUID HAZARD
Hazardous fluids or toxic fumes can cause a serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin, swallowed, or inhaled.
Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using. Read the fluid manufacturer’s warnings.
Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of the hazardous fluid according to all
local, state, and national guidelines.
Wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, eyewear, and respirator.
If the diaphragm fails, the fluid is exhausted along with the air.

Installation
General Information
Fig. 2 shows a wall mounted HVLP spray applica-
tion. It is only a guide for selecting and installing
system components. Contact your Graco distributor
for assistance in planning a system to suit your
needs.
Always use Genuine Graco Parts and Accessories,
available from your Graco distributor. If you supply
your own accessories, be sure they are adequately
sized and pressure rated for your system.
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
To prevent hazardous concentrations of toxic and/or flammable vapors, spray only in a properly ventilated spray booth. Never operate the spray gun unless ventilation fans are operating.
Check and follow all of the national, state, and local codes regarding air exhaust velocity requirements.
Use a compatible, liquid thread sealant on all male
threads. Tighten all connections firmly to avoid air
or fluid leaks.
NOTE: On all npt threads, tighten to 2–3 turns past
finger tight.
Reference numbers and letters in parentheses refer
to the callouts in the figures and the parts lists on
pages 23–22.
In a spray system, ventilate the spray booth.
Tightening Threaded Fasteners Before First Use
NOTE: Before using pump, loosen fluid cover screws
(38) 1–2 turns and then retorque to 13.6 Nm (10 ft–lb).
See the Service section for torque specifications.
After unpacking the pump, and before using it for
the first time, check and retorque all external fas-
teners.
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.
1. Read TOXIC FLUID HAZARD on page 5.
2. Use fluids and solvents which are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. Refer to the Technical Data section of all equipment manu­als. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
Mounting the Pump
Mount the pump in a well-ventilated area, with
sufficient clearance on all sides for operator access and servicing.
Be sure the mounting can support the weight of the
pump, hoses, and accessories, as well as the stress caused during operation.
The pump may be mounted vertically or horizontal-
ly. Be sure the pump is level in all directions.
After the first day of operation, retorque the fasten-
ers.
As a general guideline, retorque fasteners every
two months.
6 309303
Wall, pail, stand, or portable cart mounting kits are
available from Graco. For other mountings, be sure the pump is adequately secured. The pump has two mounting holes for 0.35 in. (9 mm) screws. See the Dimension drawing on page 25.
Grounding
Installation
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
This pump must be grounded. Before operating the pump, ground the system as explained below. Also read the sec­tion FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD on page 4.
35
Y
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump and all other equipment used or located in the pumping area. Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equip­ment.
Ground all of this equipment:
Pump: Attach a ground wire (Y) to the pump’s
grounding screw (35) and secure with the screw, as shown in Fig. 1. Connect the clamp end of the ground wire to a true earth ground. Order Part No. 238909 Ground Wire and Clamp.
ti1030b
Fig. 1
Air and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive
hoses.
Air compressor: Follow the manufacturer’s recom-
mendations.
Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow your local
code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.
Fluid supply container: Follow your local code.

Installation
Air Line
WARNING
A bleed-type master air valve (B) is required in your system to relieve air trapped between this valve and the pump. See Fig. 2. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury, including splashing in the eyes or on the skin, injury from moving parts, or contamina­tion from hazardous fluids.
1. Install the air line accessories as shown in Fig. 2. Mount these accessories on the wall or on a bracket. Be sure the air line supplying the acces­sories is electrically conductive.
a. The fluid pressure can be controlled in two
ways, either by controlling the air into the pump with the air regulator (F) or the fluid out of the pump with the fluid regulator (H).
b. Locate a bleed-type master air valve (B) close
to the pump, to relieve trapped air. See the WARNING at left. Locate another air valve (E) upstream from all air line accessories, to isolate them during cleaning and repair.
c. Install an air line filter (D) to remove harmful
contaminants such as dirt, moisture, and oil from the compressed air supply.
2. The air valve does not require lubrication.
3. Install an electrically conductive, flexible air hose (C) between the accessories and the pump air inlet (T). Use a minimum 1/4” (6.3 mm) ID air hose. Screw an air line quick disconnect coupler (V) onto the end of the air hose and screw the mating fitting into the pump air inlet snugly. Do not connect the coupler to the fitting yet.
