D Do not alter or modify this equipment. Use only genuine Graco parts and accessories.

Caution Symbol

CAUTION

This symbol alerts you to the possibility of damage to or destruction of equipment if you do not follow the instructions.

D Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

D Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated system component. See the

Technical Data on page 11 for the maximum working pressure of this component.

D Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. See the Technical

Data section of all equipment manuals. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.

D Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces. Do not

expose Graco hoses to temperatures above 180_ F (82_ C) or below –40_ F (–40_ C).

D Comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.

D Do not 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.

D Do not use hoses to pull equipment.

D Do not lift pressurized equipment.

D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 10 before you clean, check, or service this

equipment.

D Tighten all fluid connections before you operate this equipment.

D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do

not repair high pressure couplings; you must replace the entire hose.

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 Be sure the entire fluid system is properly grounded. Refer to your pump instruction manual for

complete details. See Grounding on page 5.

D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop dis-

pensing 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 Keep the dispensing area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and spilled gasoline.

D Do not smoke while dispensing flammable fluids.

D You must use one of the battery types as specified in Replacing the Battery on page 8. Use of

any other batteries than those specified could affect the intrinsic safety of this unit.

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

Fluid from the dispensing valve, leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extreme 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 a minor cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate

surgical treatment.

D Do not point the dispensing valve at anyone or at any part of the body.

D Do not put your hand or fingers over the dispensing valve nozzle.

D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

D Use only extensions and automatic tips that are designed for use with your dispensing valve.

D A thermal pressure relief valve is required in closed systems of which this meter is a part.

Installation

These meters must be installed in-line as part of a dispense system as shown in Fig. 1. The typical installation shown is only a guide for selecting and installing an in-line meter; it is not an actual system design. Contact your Graco distributor for assistance in designing a system to suit your needs.

CAUTION

To prevent line contamination, which can cause equipment malfunction or damage, flush the lines before you install this equipment in the system.

CAUTION

The use of this meter with a control valve and a manual shut-off nozzle is prohibited in systems where the operating pressure exceeds the maximum pressure of the meter or any other component in the system.

CAUTION

The use of PTFE tape on threaded connections to the meter is not recommended. Such use could contribute to overtightening of the parts and cause the meter housing to crack. Standard pipe thread compound is recommended.
