Do not install equipment approved only for non-hazardous location in a hazardous area. Substitution of
components may impair intrinsic safety. See page 5.
*Model 248842 is designed for remote feed pumps and a remote mix manifold. It does not include hoppers, mix
manifold, hose, or spray gun. Refer to manual 310794 for application layout.
Model 248842 is limited to 5000 psi (34.5 MPa, 345 bar) for use in “quick set” packages where heated hoses,
whip hoses, and spray accessories are limited to 5000 psi (34.5 MPa, 345 bar). If all your downstream components are rated for 7000 psi (48 MPa, 483 bar), you can replace the standard relief valve with relief valve
113498.

The following general warnings are related to the safe setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. Additional more specific warnings may be found throughout the text of this manual where applicable.
Warning
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent
fire and explosion:
•Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
•Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop
cloths (potential static arc).
•Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
•Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes
are present.
•Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area. See Grounding instructions.
•Use only grounded hoses.
•Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
•If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment
until you identify and correct the problem.
•Keep a fire extinguisher in the work area.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the system can cause electric shock.
•Turn off and disconnect power at main switch before disconnecting any cables and before servicing
equipment.
•Connect only to grounded power source.
•All electrical wiring must be done by a qualified electrician and comply with all local codes and regulations.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from gun, 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.
•Do not point gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
•Do not put your hand over the spray tip.
•Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
•Do not spray without tip guard and trigger guard installed.
•Engage trigger lock when not spraying.
•Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop spraying and before cleaning,
checking, or servicing equipment.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch or amputate fingers and other body parts.
•Keep clear of moving parts.
•Do not operate equipment with protective guards or covers removed.
•Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equipment,
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual. Disconnect power or air supply.

Warning
Warning
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
•Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system com-
ponent. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.
•Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all
equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.
•Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
•Do not alter or modify equipment.
•For professional use only.
•Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.
•Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
•Do not kink or overbend hoses or use hoses to pull equipment.
•Comply with all applicable safety regulations.
BURN HAZARD
Equipment surfaces and fluid that’s heated can become very hot during operation. To avoid severe burns,
do not touch hot fluid or equipment. Wait until equipment/fluid has cooled completely.
TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or swallowed.
•Read MSDS’s to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
•Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose of it according to applicable guidelines.
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT
You must wear appropriate protective equipment when operating, servicing, or when in the operating
area of the equipment to help protect you from serious injury, including eye injury, inhalation of toxic
fumes, burns, and hearing loss. This equipment includes but is not limited to:
•Protective eyewear
•Clothing and respirator as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer
•Gloves
•Hearing protection
RECOIL HAZARD
Gun may recoil when triggered and cause you to fall and be seriously injured if you are not standing
securely.

Maintenance
Metering Valve
•Fill metering valves A and B packing nuts (627) with
throat seal liquid (TSL) and tighten 1/4 turn after nut
contacts packings; about 145-155 in/lbs (16-18
N•m). Check packing nut tightness after first hour of
operation, again after 24 hours, then check as
needed (when TSL discolors or seeps over packing
nut). Also check tightness whenever unit is transported.
•Recommend that you replace metering valve packings every other time that pump packings are
replaced.
