Grounding

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.
Pump: use ground wire and clamp (supplied). Loosen grounding lug locknut (LL) and washer (LW). Insert one
end of a 1.5 mm2 (12 ga) minimum ground wire end (GW) into lug (LS) slot and tighten locknut securely. Connect ground clamp to a true earth ground. Order part 237569 ground wire and clamp.
LL
LW
LS
GE
Object being sprayed: follow local code.
Solvent pails used when flushing: follow local code.
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts grounding continuity.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray
gun/dispense valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun/valve.

Accessories

Install the following accessories in the order shown in FIG. 1, page 7, using adapters as necessary. Contact your Graco representative or Graco Technical Assistance for assistance in designing a system to suit your needs.
Air and Fluid Hoses
Air and fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive
hoses. Check electrical resistance of hoses. If total resistance to ground exceeds 29 megaohms, replace hose immediately.
Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommendations.
Spray gun: ground through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
Fluid supply container: follow local code.
Be sure all air hoses (H) and fluid hoses (N and P) are properly sized and pressure-rated for your system. Use only electrically conductive hoses. Fluid hoses must have spring guards on both ends. Use a whip hose (P) and a swivel (R) between the main fluid hose (N) and the gun (S) to allow freer gun movement
Mounting Accessories

Installation
Air Line
Air line lubricator (D): provides automatic air
motor lubrication.
Bleed-type master air valve (E): required in your
system to relieve air trapped between it and the air motor when the valve is closed.
NOTE: Be sure the valve is easily accessible from the pump and located downstream from the air regulator.
Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly, which could result in serious injury from splashing or moving parts.
Air regulator (F): controls pump speed and outlet
pressure by adjusting the air pressure to the pump.
NOTE: Locate the regulator close to the pump, but upstream from the bleed-type master air valve.
Pump runaway valve (C): senses when the pump
is running too fast and automatically shuts off the air to the motor. A pump which runs too fast can be seriously damaged.
Air manifold (G): has a 3/4 npsm(f) swivel air inlet.
It mounts to the pump support bracket, and provides ports for connecting lines to air-powered accessories.
Air line filter (J): removes harmful dirt and moisture from the compressed air supply. Also, install a drain valve (W) at the bottom of each air line drop, to drain off moisture.
Second bleed-type air valve (K): isolates the air line accessories for servicing.
Fluid Line
Fluid filter (L): with a 60 mesh (250 micron)
stainless steel element to filter particles from the fluid as it leaves the pump.
Fluid drain valve (M): required in your system, to
relieve fluid pressure in the hose and gun.
Gun (S): to dispense fluid.
NOTE: The gun shown in FIG. 1, page 7, is an airless spray gun for light to medium viscosity fluids.
Fluid line swivel (R): for easier gun movement.
Suction kit (T): enables the pump to draw fluid from
a container.
NOTICE
To prevent intake valve damage, always apply PTFE tape to the female threads of the intake valve before connecting a suction hose or fitting to the intake.

Flush Before Using Equipment

The equipment was tested with lightweight oil, which is left in the fluid passages to protect parts. To avoid contaminating your fluid with oil, flush the equipment with a compatible solvent before using the equipment. See Flush the Equipment, page 8.

7. Lubricate the piston packings. Slide the displacement rod (1) and piston assembly down into the cylinder (9).
NOTE: The cylinder is symmetrical, so either end may face up.
8. Use a rubber mallet to drive the rod into the cylinder, until the piston seat housing (16) is near the bottom of the cylinder.
9. Install the seal (8*) on the top of the cylinder (9). Lubricate the seal and apply anti seize (20*) to threads of the cylinder.
10. Place the outlet housing (7) in a vise, as shown in FIG. 5, page 18.
11. Slide the displacement rod (1) up into the outlet housing, then screw the cylinder (9) into the outlet housing hand tight.
NOTE: The threads will engage easily until the seal (8*) contacts the sealing surface of the outlet housing. The top of the rod will protrude from the packing nut (2).
12. Install the seal (8*) on the bottom of the cylinder (9). Lubricate the seal and apply anti seize (20*) to threads of the cylinder.
13. With the beveled ball stop surfaces (SS) facing down (see FIG. 5, page 18), screw the intake housing (18) onto the cylinder hand tight.
NOTE: The threads will engage easily until the seal contacts the sealing surface of the intake housing.
5. For standard displacement pump 237514,
lubricate the throat packings and place them in the outlet housing (7) in the following order with the lips of the v-packings facing down (see the Throat Packing Stack Detail in FIG. 5, page 18):
- the male gland (6*)
- four leather v-packings (3*)
- one PTFE v-packing (5*)
- the female gland (4*)

14. Install the seal (8*) on the intake valve (19). Lubricate the seal and apply anti seize (20*) to threads of the intake valve.
15. Place the intake ball (17*) in the intake housing (18), then screw the intake valve into the intake housing hand tight.
NOTE: The threads will engage easily until the seal contacts the sealing surface of the intake housing.
Maintenance
16. Using a pipe wrench, torque the intake housing (18) to 325–353 Nm (240–260 ft-lb). This will torque both cylinder joints (A and B). See FIG. 3, page 15.
17. Using a pipe wrench, torque the intake valve (19) to 190–217 Nm (140–150 ft-lb). See FIG. 3, page 15.
18. Torque the packing nut (2) to 136–149 Nm (100– 110 ft-lb).
