Pressure Roller Attachment
Model 245907, Series C
D 9 in. (23 cm) roller frame with 45_ angle and 12 in. reach
D 1/2 in. (13 mm) nap roller cover
309511
Rev. D
3600 psi (24.8 MPa, 248 bar) Maximum Fluid Inlet Pressure
The best operating pressure is the lowest pressure that provides
*
an even paint supply to the roller and typically does not exceed
300 psi (2.1 MPa, 21 bar).
CAUTION
*
Never leave water in the pump, gun, or pressure roller.
Doing so could cause corrosion and damage from freezing.
For storage, flush the system with Graco Pump Armort or
mineral spirits/paint thinner.

INSTRUCTIONS
Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause the equipment to rupture or malfunction and result in serious injury.
To help prevent injury
D Do not modify the extension tube or roller frame or use parts not designed for this
equipment.
D Do not use 1,1,1–trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon
solvents or fluids containing such solvents in this or any other pressurized aluminum
equipment. Such use could result in a chemical reaction, with the possibility of explosion.
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.
To help prevent injury from fire or explosion
D Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable fumes from flushing fluids or
the coating being applied.
D Keep the application area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
FLUID INJECTION HAZARD
If high-pressure fluid pierces your skin, the injury might look like “just a cut”. But it is
a serious wound. Get immediate medical attention.
To help prevent injection
D Keep your hands and body away form the roller frame when flushing. High pressure fluid
emitted from the holes in the frame could cause an injection injury.
D Always relieve pressure before you check or repair leaks and when you turn off pump or
stop painting.
D Never use components rated less than system Maximum Working Pressure.
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
Failure to observe the electrical hazards described below could result in serious injury,
including burns or electrocution.
To help prevent harmful electrical shock
D Avoid contact with power lines.
D Follow all grounding instructions in your separate pump and gun instruction manual, and
comply with all local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.
D Use only MAGNUM or Graco paint hoses.

WARNING
To help prevent injection injuries,
follow this procedure whenever
you stop painting.
psi/MPa/bar
1. Engage gun trigger safety latch.
2. Shut off power to pump.
3. Turn prime/spray valve to the PRIME to relieve
pressure in system.
4. Remove gun trigger safety latch. Trigger gun to
relieve any pressure in hose.
5. Engage gun trigger safety latch. Keep pump
prime/spray valve in PRIME position until you paint
again.
