WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause an
extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin
can also cause a serious injury.

WARNING
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of serious
injury or death if you do not follow the corresponding
instructions.
Caution Symbol
CAUTION
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of damage to
or destruction of equipment if you do not follow the corresponding instructions.
D Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate medi-
cal attention.
D Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
D Do not put your hand or fingers over the gun 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 Be sure the gun trigger safety operates before dispensing.
D Lock the gun trigger safety when you stop dispensing.
D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 5 if the gun nozzle clogs and before cleaning,
checking or servicing the equipment.
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.
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,

WARNING
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 uncertain about usage, call your Graco
distributor.
D Do not alter or modify this equipment. Use only genuine Graco parts and accessories.
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. This equip-
ment has a 3400 psi (23.4 MPa, 234 bar) maximum working pressure.
D Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces. Do not expose
Graco hoses to temperatures above 66_C (150_F) or below –40_C (–40_F).
D Do not use the hoses to pull the equipment.
D Use only Graco approved hoses. Do not remove hose spring guards, which help protect the hose
from rupture caused by kinks or bends near the couplings.
D Use fluids or solvents that are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. See the Technical
Data section of all the equipment manuals. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
D Never 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 Comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.
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 on page 4.
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 dispense area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
D Before operating this equipment, electrically disconnect all equipment in the dispense area.
D Before operating this equipment, extinguish all open flames or pilot lights in the dispense area.
D Do not smoke in the dispense area.
D Do not turn on or off any light switch in the dispense area while dispensing or while operating if
fumes are present.
D Do not operate a gasoline engine in the dispense area.

Installation
Grounding
WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Before operating the pump, ground the
system as explained below. Also read
the section FIRE AND EXPLOSION
HAZARD on page 3.
1. Pump: use a ground wire and clamp as shown in
your separate pump manual.
2. Fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive fluid
hoses with a maximum of 500 feet (150 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity.
Check the electrical resistance of your fluid hoses
at least once a week. If your hose does not have a
tag on it which specifies the maximum electrical
resistance, contact the hose supplier or manufacturer for the maximum resistance limits. If the hose
resistance exceeds the recommended limits,
replace it immediately.
3. Air compressors and hydraulic power supplies:
ground the equipment according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.
4. Flow gun: ground through connection to a properly
grounded fluid hose and pump.
5. Fluid supply container: Ground according to your
local code.
6. Flammable liquids in the dispensing area: must be
kept in approved, grounded containers. Do not
store more than the quantity needed for one shift.
7. Solvent pails used when flushing: follow your local
code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive,
placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the
pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or
cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.
8. To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure, hold a metal part of the gun
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then
trigger the gun.
