Warnings
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 risk. Refer back to these warnings. Additional, product-specific warnings
may be found throughout the body of this manual where applicable.
WARNING
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 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.
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.
•Always wear chemically impermeable gloves when spraying, dispensing, or cleaning
equipment.
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

Warnings
WARNING
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.
• Engage trigger lock when not spraying.
• 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.
• 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 and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
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.
THERMAL EXPANSION HAZARD
Fluids subjected to heat in confined spaces, including hoses, can create a rapid rise in pressure due to the thermal expansion. Over-pressurization can result in equipment rupture and
serious injury.
•Open a valve to relieve the fluid expansion during heating.
•Replace hoses proactively at regular intervals based on your operating conditions.

Warnings
WARNING
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.
•Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or fluids containing such solvents.
•Many other fluids may contain chemicals that can react with aluminum. Contact your
material supplier for compatibility.
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
•This equipment is for professional use only.
•Do not leave the work are while the equipment is energized or under pressure. Turn off all
equipment and follow the Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual when the equipment
is not in use.
•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 forms from distributor or retailer.
•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.
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.
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.

Important Two-Component Material Information
Important Two-Component Material Information
Isocyanate Conditions
Spraying or dispensing materials containing
isocyanates creates potentially harmful
mists, vapors, and atomized particulates.
Read material manufacturer’s warnings and
material MSDS to know specific hazards
and precautions related to isocyanates.
Prevent inhalation of isocyanate mists,
vapors, and atomized particulates by providing sufficient ventilation in the work area.
If sufficient ventilation is not available, a
supplied-air respirator is required for everyone in the work area.
To prevent contact with isocyanates, appropriate personal protective equipment,
including chemically impermeable gloves,
boots, aprons, and goggles, is also required
for everyone in the work area.
Keep Components A and B
Separate
Cross-contamination can result in cured
material in fluid lines which could cause serious injury or damage equipment. To prevent
cross-contamination of the equipment’s wetted parts, never interchange component A
(isocyanate) and component B (resin) parts.
Moisture Sensitivity of
Isocyanates
Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two
component foam and polyurea coatings. ISO
will react with moisture (such as humidity) to
form small, hard, abrasive crystals, which
become suspended in the fluid. Eventually a
film will form on the surface and the ISO will
begin to gel, increasing in viscosity. If used,
this partially cured ISO will reduce performance and the life of all wetted parts.
Material Self-ignition
To prevent exposing ISO to moisture:
Some materials may become self-igniting if
applied too thickly. Read material manufacturer’s warnings and material MSDS.

iccant dryer in the vent, or a nitrogen atmosphere. Never store ISO in an open
container.
installed) filled with Graco Throat Seal Liquid (TSL), Part 206995. The lubricant creates a barrier between the ISO and the
atmosphere.
Important Two-Component Material Information
•Use moisture-proof hoses specifically
designed for ISO, such as those supplied
with your system.
•Never use reclaimed solvents, which may
contain moisture. Always keep solvent containers closed when not in use.
•Never use solvent on one side if it has
been contaminated from the other side.
•Always lubricate threaded parts with ISO
pump oil or grease when reassembling.
Foam Resins with 245 fa
Blowing Agents
Some foam blowing agents will froth at temperatures above 90°F (33°C) when not under
pressure, especially if agitated. To reduce
frothing, minimize preheating in a circulation
system.
Changing Materials
•When changing materials, flush the equipment multiple times to ensure it is thoroughly clean.
•Always clean the fluid inlet strainers after
flushing.
•Check with your material manufacturer for
chemical compatibility.
•Most materials use ISO on the A side, but
some use ISO on the B side.
•Epoxies often have amines on the B (hardener) side. Polyureas often have amines on
the B (resin) side.
