WARNINGS
WARNINGWARNING
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Equipment misuse can cause the equipment to rupture or malfunction and result in serious injury.
D This equipment is for professional use only.
D Read all instruction manuals, tags, and labels before operating the equipment.
D Use the equipment only for its intended purpose. If you are not sure, call your Graco distributor.
D Do not alter or modify this equipment.
D Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
D Do not exceed the maximum working pressure stated on the equipment or in the Technical Data
for your equipment. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated component in your system.
D Use fluids and solvents that 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 warn-
ings.
D Handle hoses carefully. Do not pull on hoses to move equipment.
D All fluid hoses must have spring guards on both ends. The spring guards help protect the
hose from kinks or bends at or close to the coupling, which can result in hose rupture.
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 Do not lift pressurized equipment.
D Comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.
D Use only dispensing valves that are designed to dispense motor oil. Do not modify any part of
the dispensing valve; doing so could cause a malfunction and result in serious bodily injury. Be
sure the dispensing valve has a maximum working pressure that meets or exceeds that of the
pump.

WARNING
WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
High pressure fluid from dispense device, 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.
D Do not point the dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
D Do not put your hand or fingers over the fluid outlet.
D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
D Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop dispensing and before clean-
ing, checking or servicing equipment.
D Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
HAZARDOUS FLUIDS
Improper handling of hazardous fluids or inhaling toxic fumes can cause extremely serious injury or
death due to splashing in the eyes, ingestion, or bodily contamination.
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.
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. Refer to Grounding below.
D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop
dispensing 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 dispensed.
D Do not smoke in the dispensing area.

WARNINGWARNING
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 9 to prevent the
equipment from starting unexpectedly.
United States Government safety standards have been adopted under the Occupational Safety and Health Act.
You should consult these standards––particularly General Standards, Part 1910, and Construction Standards, Part
1926.
Installation
Grounding
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump.
Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding
instructions for your area and type of equipment.
D Pump: Use ground wire and clamp as shown in
Fig. 1.
D Air and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive
hoses.
D Air compressor: Follow manufacturer’s recommen-
dations.
D Dispensing valve: Obtain grounding through con-
nection to a properly grounded fluid hose and
pump.
D Fluid supply container: Follow your local code.
D Object being lubricated: Follow your local code.
D Any pails used when flushing: Use only metal,
grounded pails when flushing. Make firm metal-tometal contact between a metal part of the dispensing valve and the pail. Use the lowest possible
pressure.
D To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure, always hold a metal part of the
dispensing valve firmly to the side of a metal pail,
and then open the dispensing valve.
To ground the pump, remove ground screw (Z)
and insert through the eye of the ring terminal at
end of ground wire (Y). Fasten ground screw
back onto pump and tighten securely. Connect
other end of ground wire to a true earth ground.
See Fig. 1. To order a ground wire and clamp,
order Part No. 222011.

NOTE: See Fig. 4 on page 7 for the mobile mounting

Stationary Mounting Layout
Plan the mounting layout for easy operator access to
the pump air controls, sufficient room to change
drums, and a secure mounting platform.
For ease in changing drums, install a pump elevator.
Open-Drum, Cover-Mounted Pumps
1. Remove the original drum cover.
2. Mount and fasten the new drum cover.
3. Guide the pump riser tube through the mounting
gasket.
Closed Bung-Type Drum
1. Loosen the drum cover vent plug, and remove the
bung cover.
Air and Fluid Line Accessories
Install the accessories in the order shown in Fig. 2.
CAUTION
Do not hang the air accessories directly on the air
inlet. Mount them on brackets. The fittings are not
strong enough to support the accessories and may
break.
D Use thread sealant on male threads except at
swivel connections.
D Install a pump runaway valve (D) to stop the pump
if the fluid supply is depleted.
D Install a bleed-type master air valve (F) upstream
from the pump air regulator (G), but within easy
reach of the pump.
2. Install the pump through the bung hole until the
pump foot valve is 1/2 in. (13 mm) off the drum
bottom. Tighten the bung adapter.
To order a 300 psi (21 bar) maximum working
pressure, 1/2 in. npt bleed-type master air valve,
order Part No. 107142.
