Warnings

The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance and repair of this equipment. The exclamation point symbol alerts you to a general warning and the hazard symbol refers to procedure-specific risks. Refer back to these warnings. Additional, product-specific warnings may be found throughout the body of this manual where applicable.

WARNING

WARNINGWARNINGWARNING

GROUNDING

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

• Improper installation of the grounding plug is able to result in a risk of electric shock.

• When repair or replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal.

• The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.

• Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or when in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.

• Do not modify the plug provided; if it does not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

• This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and has a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in the figure below.

ti9164a

• Only connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug.

• Do not use an adapter with this product.

Extension Cords:

• Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that accepts the plug on the product.

• Make sure your extension cord is not damaged. If an extension cord is necessary, use 12 AWG (2.5 mm

• An undersized cord results in a drop in line voltage and loss of power and overheating.

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:

• Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition

such as cigarettes, motors, and electrical equipment. For X5 and X7 models: only use water-based or mineral spirit-type materials with a flash point greater than 70

• Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system, including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun, and objects in and around the spray area shall be properly grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use Graco conductive or grounded high-pressure airless paint sprayer hoses.

• Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge.

• Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extensions cords. Do not use a 3-to-2 adapter.

• Do not use a paint or a solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.

• Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area. Keep pump assembly in a well ventilated area. Do not spray pump assembly.

• Do not smoke in the spray area.

• Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the spray area.

• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.

• Know the contents of the paints and solvents being sprayed. Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvents manufacturer’s safety instructions.

• Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.

• Sprayer generates sparks. When flammable liquid is used in or near the sprayer or for flushing or cleaning, keep sprayer at least 20 feet (6 m) away from explosive vapors.

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.

• Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For example, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.

• Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without nozzle tip guard in place.

• Use Graco nozzle tips.

• Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the case where the nozzle tip clogs while spraying, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure for turning off the unit and relieving the pressure before removing the nozzle tip to clean.

• Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while unattended. When the unit is not in use, turn off the unit and follow the Pressure Relief Procedure for turning off the unit.

• High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs, get immediate surgical treatment.

• Check hoses and parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged hoses or parts.

• This system is capable of producing 3000 psi. Use Graco replacement parts or accessories that are rated a minimum of 3000 psi.

• Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the trigger lock is functioning properly.

• Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.

• Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls.

EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD

Misuse can cause death or serious injury.

• Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system component. 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. For complete information about your material, request MSDS from distributor or retailer.

• Do not leave the work area while equipment is energized or under pressure.

• Turn off all equipment and follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when equipment is not in use.

• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately with genuine manufacturer’s replacement parts only.

• Do not alter or modify equipment. Alterations or modifications may void agency approvals and create safety hazards.

• Make sure all equipment is rated and approved for the environment in which you are using it.

• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your distributor for information.

• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.

• Do not kink or over bend hoses or use hoses to pull equipment.

• Keep children and animals away from work area.

• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

This equipment must be grounded. Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the system can cause electric shock.

• Turn off and disconnect power cord before servicing equipment.

• Connect only to grounded electrical outlets.

• Use only 3-wire extension cords.

• Ensure ground prongs are intact on power and extension cords.

• Do not expose to rain. Store indoors

PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD

Use of fluids that are incompatible with aluminum in pressurized equipment can cause serious chemical reaction and equipment rupture. Failure to follow this warning can result in death, serious injury, or property damage.

Grounding and Electric Requirements

Sprayer must be grounded. Grounding reduces the risk of static and electric shock by providing an escape wire for electrical current due to static build up or in the event of a short circuit.

• The 120 Vac sprayers require a 120 Vac, 60 Hz, 15A circuit with a grounding receptacle.

• Never use an outlet

ti5573a

that is not grounded or an adapter.

• Do not use the sprayer if the electrical cord has a damaged ground prong.

• Only use an extension cord with an undamaged 3-prong plug.

ti5572a

Recommended extension cords for use with this sprayer:

• 50 ft (15.0 m) 14 AWG (2.1 mm

• 100 ft (30.0 m) 12 AWG (3.3 mm

)

Solvent pails used when flushing

: follow local

code. Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded surface such as concrete. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts grounding continuity.

Grounding the metal pail

: connect a ground wire

to the pail by clamping one end to pail and other end to ground such as a water pipe.

Maintaining grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure: hold

metal part of the spray gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.
