D Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated system component. Refer to the
Technical Data on page 14 for the maximum working pressure of this equipment.
D 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.
D Do not use hoses to pull equipment.
D Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces. Do not expose
Graco hoses to temperatures above 82_C (180_F) or below –40_C (–40_F).
D Wear hearing protection when operating this equipment.
D Do not lift pressurized equipment.
D Comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.

WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the gun/valve, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and
cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the
skin can also cause serious injury.
D Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate surgi-
cal treatment.
D Do not point the gun/valve at anyone or at any part of the body.
D Do not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip/nozzle.
D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.
D Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.
D Always have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the gun/valve when spraying.
D Be sure the gun/valve trigger safety operates before spraying.
D Lock the gun/valve trigger safety when you stop spraying.
D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 whenever you: are instructed to relieve pres-
sure; stop spraying; clean, check, or service the equipment; and install or clean the spray tip/
nozzle.
D Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn, damaged, or loose parts immediately.
Permanently coupled hoses cannot be repaired; replace the entire hose.
D Use only Graco approved hoses. Do not remove any spring guard that is used to help protect the
hose from rupture caused by kinks or bends near the couplings.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch or amputate your fingers.
D Keep clear of all moving parts when starting or operating the pump.
D Before servicing the equipment, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 to prevent the
equipment from starting unexpectedly.

WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Improper grounding, poor ventilation, open flames or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and
result in a fire or explosion and serious injury.
D Ground the equipment and the object being sprayed. Refer to Grounding on page 5.
D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop spray-
ing immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
D Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable fumes from solvents or the fluid
being sprayed.
D Keep the spray area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
D Electrically disconnect all equipment in the spray area.
D Extinguish all open flames or pilot lights in the spray area.
D Do not smoke in the spray area.
D Do not turn on or off any light switch in the spray area while operating or if fumes are present.
D Do not operate a gasoline engine in the spray area.
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.
D Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using.
D Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of hazardous fluid according to all local,
state and national guidelines.
D Always wear protective eyewear, gloves, clothing and respirator as recommended by the fluid and
solvent manufacturer.

WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Before operating the pump, ground the
system as explained below. Also read
the section FIRE AND EXPLOSIONHAZARD on page 4.
Ground all of this equipment.
D Pump: Loosen the grounding lug locknut (W) and
washer (X). Insert one end of a 12 ga (1.5 mm2)
minimum, ground wire (Y) into the slot in lug (Z)
and tighten the locknut securely. See Fig. 1. Order
Part No. 237569 Ground Wire and Clamp. Connect
the clamp end of the ground wire to a true earth
ground.
D Fluid and hydraulic hoses: Use only electrically
conductive hoses.
D Hydraulic power supply: Follow manufacturer’s
recommendations.
D Spray gun or dispensing valve: Obtain grounding
through connection to a properly grounded fluid
hose and pump.
D Object being sprayed: Follow the local code.
D Fluid supply container: Follow the local code.
D All solvent pails used when flushing: Follow the
local code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive. 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, always hold a metal part of the gun
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger
the gun.
