WARNING
WARNINGWARNINGWARNING
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 all equipment in the 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 working fire extinguisher in the work area.

WARNING
WARNINGWARNINGWARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Fluid from the gun/dispense valve, leaks, or ruptured components can splash in the eyes or on skin and
cause serious injury.
•Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing equipment.
•Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
•Check hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
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.
•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.
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 MSDSs 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, hearing loss, inhalation of
toxic fumes, and burns. This equipment includes but is not limited to:
•Protective eyewear, and hearing protection.
•Respirators, protective clothing, and gloves as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer.

Installation
Installation
Mount the Fluid Regulator
See FIG. 1. Mount the fluid regulator (C) in a location
close to the fluid dispense device. A mounting bracket
(D) is supplied. See Dimensions on page 14 for mounting information.
Grounding
The equipment must be grounded. Mount the regulator
to a conductive mounting surface (E) which is connected to a true earth ground. Follow local code. Graco
Part No. 222011 Ground Wire and Clamp is available as
an accessory. See F
IG
. 1.
Air Supply
The regulator’s air inlet fittings accept 5/32 in. (4 mm)
OD tubing. Air pressure can be controlled manually or
with electronic pressure controls.
Regulated Fluid Outlet Line
See FIG. 1. Connect the regulated fluid outlet line (F)
between the 1/8 npt(f) fluid outlet port and the system’s
fluid dispense point.
NOTE: All components located downstream of the fluid
regulator must be rated for the maximum fluid inlet pressure sent to the regulator. Do not use the regulator as a
fluid shutoff valve.
Flush Before Using Equipment
The equipment was tested with a rust inhibiting test
fluid. To avoid contaminating your system, flush the
equipment with a compatible solvent before using the
equipment. See Flushing, page 7.
Connections can be made in two ways:
•Use separate high (A) and low (B) air pressure supply lines, connected as shown in F
•Use a single air supply line and connect it to the
high or low pressure air inlet fitting alternately, as
desired.
IG
. 1.
Fluid Inlet Line
See FIG. 1. Connect the fluid inlet line (G) between the
1/4 npt(m) fluid inlet fitting and the fluid supply.
Install the following accessories in the order shown in
F
IG
. 1, using adapters as necessary.
•Fluid filter (H): to filter particles from the fluid
before it passes through the fluid regulator.
•Fluid drain valve (J): required in your system, to
relieve fluid pressure in the fluid regulator.
•Fluid shutoff valve (K): shuts off fluid flow.
