Important Safety Instructions
Read all warnings and instructions in this manual and in related manuals.
Be familiar with the controls and the proper usage of the equipment.
Save these instructions.
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 symbols refer to procedure-specific risks. When these symbols appear in the body of this manual or on warning labels, refer back to these Warnings. Product-specific hazard sym-
bols and warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this manual where applicable.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment can cause static sparking. To help prevent fire and explosion:
•Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
•Do not fill fuel tank while engine is running or hot; shut off engine and let it cool. Fuel is flammable and can
ignite or explode if spilled on hot surface.
•Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths
(potential static arc).
•Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
•Never spray or flush solvent at high pressure.
•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.
•Use only grounded hoses.
•Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail. Do not use pail liners unless they are antistatic or conductive.
•Stop operation immediately if static sparking occurs or you feel a shock. Do not use equipment until you
identify and correct the problem.
•Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
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.
•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 n ozzle 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.
•Equipment maintains pressure after power is shut off. Do not leave the equipment energized or u nder pressure while unattended. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when the equipment is unattended or not
in use, and before servicing, cleaning, or removing parts.
•Check hoses and parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged hoses or parts.
•This system is capable of producing 3300 psi. Use Graco replacement parts or accessories that are rated
a minimum of 3300 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.

Important Laser Information for Units with Laser Option
LASER LIGHT HAZARD: AVOID DIRECT EYE CONTACT
Eye exposure to Class IIIa/3R levels of laser light can potentia lly present an eye (retinal) injury hazar d, including spot blindness or other retinal injury. To avoid direct eye exposure:
•Never look directly in to a laser beam or point the beam into the eyes of others, even at long distances.
•Never shine the laser at mirror like surfaces which can cause specular reflections of the beam.
•Always set the laser at a height and angle that prevents the beam from shining into people’s eyes.
•Immediately terminate laser emissions if personnel, animals or reflective objects approach the beam.
•Always turn off laser when unattended.
•Do not remove any warning labels from the laser.
•Only properly trained laser operators are to use this product.
•Never allow beams to be aimed toward traffic, vehicles, or heavy equipment. Even when not damagi ng at
long distances, the high brightness of lasers can distract or disrupt vehicle operations.
•Never point a laser at an aircraft or law enforcement personnel. This is considered a felony in most locations, with the possibility of jail time, heavy fines or both.
•Do not disassemble laser product. Return to factory for all service procedures.
•Laser must be turned OFF when cleaning the lens, so as not to create unwanted laser refraction.
Warnings
LASER RADIATION HAZARD
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in
hazardous radiation exposure.
•Do not attempt to open or disassemble the laser housing under any circumstances. Doing so may cause
exposure to potentially hazardous levels of laser radiation.
•No serviceable parts within. Unit is factory sealed.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Connecting directly to a generator source can create a short or sparking under certain conditions.
•Only connect GL1700 to a dedicated 12 volt DC battery source.

Battery Disposal
Do not place batteries in the trash. Recycle batteries a ccording to local re gulations. To find a recycling locatio n in the
USA and Canada call 1-800-822-8837 or go to www.call2recycle.org.
This equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to
ignite or explode. Grounding provides a n escape wire
for the electric current.
1. Position striper so that the tires are not on pavement.
2. Striper is shipped with a grounding clamp. Grounding clamp must attach to grounded object (e.g.
metal sign post).
2. Set pump switch to OFF. Turn engine OFF.

Pressure Relief Procedure
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury
from pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure Re lief
Procedure when you stop dispensing and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.
1. Perform Grounding Procedure if using flammable
materials.
5. If you suspect the spray tip or hose is clogged or
that pressure has not been fully relieved:
a. VERY SLOWLY loosen the tip guard retaining
