CAUTION
Alerts you to the possibility of damage or destruction of equipment if you do not follow the instructions.
Warnings
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 in well ventilated areas only.
•Do not fill fuel tank while motor is running or hot; shut off motor 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 electrical 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 lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
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.
Equipment Misuse Hazard
Equipment misuse can cause death or serious injury.
•Do not exceed maximum working pressure or temperature rating of 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.
•Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
•Do not alter or modify this equipment.
•Use the equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.
•For professional use only.
•Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts and hot surfaces.
•Do not use hoses to pull equipment.‘

Warnings
WARNINGS
Burn Hazard
Equipment surfaces and fluid that is heated can become very hot during operation. To avoid severe burns, do not touch hot fluid or equipment. Wait until equipment/fluid has cooled completely.
Pressurized Equipment Hazard
Compressed air can inject in skin. Air tubing rupture can cause injury if disconnected while under pressure. To reduce risk of injury:
•Never exceed maximum working pressure of any attachment.
•Do not direct airstream at body.
•Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 6 whenever you are instructed to relieve pressure, stop spraying, service equipment, install or clean spray nozzle or disconnect or connect hose.
Cleaning Solvent Hazard with Plastic Parts
Use only compatible water-based solvents to clean plastic structural or pressure-containing parts. Many solvents can degrade plastic parts to the point where they could fail. Such failure could cause serious injury or property damage. See Technical Data on page 21 of this instruction manual and in all other equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
Personal Protective Equipment
Wear appropriate protective equipment when operating, servicing or when in the operating area of this equipment to help protect yourself from serious injury, including eye injury, inhalation of toxic fumes, burns and hearing loss. This equipment includes, but is not limited to:
•protective eye wear
•clothing and respirator as recommended by fluid and solvent manufacturer
•hearing protection
•gloves
CAUTION
Water or material remaining in unit when temperatures are below freezing can damage pump and/or delay startup.
To insure water and material are completely drained out of unit:
1.Remove material line from sprayer.
2.Tip sprayer to allow material (water) to flow out of pump inlet.
Before adding material or starting unit in cold weather, run warm water through pump.
