The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. The exclama-
tion 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 symbols and warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this manual where
applicable.
BURN HAZARD
Equipment surfaces and fluid that is heated can become very hot during operation. To avoid
burns:
•Do not touch hot fluid or equipment.
SPLATTER HAZARD
severe
Hot or toxic fluid can cause serious injury if splashed in the eyes or on skin. During blow off of platen,
splatter may occur.
•Use minimum air pressure when removing platen from drum.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch, cut 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 and disconnect all power sources.
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
This equipment must be grounded. Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the system can cause electric
shock.

Location Requirements
1. Make sure there is sufficient overhead clearance for
the Heated Pump and Ram when the Ram is in the
fully raised position (approximately 110 in. (280
cm)).
2. If you are installing a vent hood, make sure there is
sufficient horizontal clearance for it. Locate the Ram
near a connection to the factory ventilation system.
3. Make sure the air regulators for the Heated Pump
and Ram are fully accessible, with room to stand
directly in front of the Pneumatic Control Panel and
the Electrical Control Panel.
4. When locating the system, do not install closer than
36 in. (914 mm) to vertical surfaces.
3. Lift the system off the pallet using a crane or a
lift and place in desired location.
4. Level the base of the Ram, using metal shims.
5. Bolt the Ram to the floor, using anchors that are
long enough to prevent the unit from tipping.

To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or electric shock,
the resistance between the supply unit components
and true earth ground must be less than 0.25 ohms.
3. Connect the ground wire to the ground lug. Have a
qualified electrician check the resistance between
each Therm-O-Flow system ground and the true
earth ground. The resistance must be less than 0.1
ohms. If the resistance is greater than 0.1 ohms, a
different ground site may be required. Do not oper-
ate the system until the problem is corrected.

Grounding
Ground the unit as instructed here and in the compo-
nent manuals.
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking and electric shock. Electric or static
sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode.
Improper grounding can cause electric shock.
Grounding provides and escape path for the electric
current.
System: ground through ground lug in Electrical Enclo-
sure. See Connect Power, page 20.
Air and Fluid Hoses: use only electrically conductive
hoses.
Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions.
Spray gun / Dispense valve: ground through connec-
tion to a properly grounded fluid hose and Pump.
Material drums: follow local code. Use only metal
drums placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the
drum on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or
cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure: follow instructions in your separate
gun manual for instructions on how to safely ground
your gun while flushing.
Connect Secondary System
A secondary system is a Therm-O-Flow supply system
that connects to the primary Therm-O-Flow system, with
the ADM. See Models, page 7for secondary system
model numbers.
1. Connect adapter cable (AC) and communication
cable (SC) to the secondary Electrical Enclosure
and rout to splitter (SS) installed on the primary sys-
tem.
2. To enable a secondary system, select “Enable Tan-

Purge System
NOTICE
Purge the system before initial use and when chemi-
cals are changed to prevent material contamination,
which may cause the material to fail or perform poorly.
The system was factory- tested using a light soluble
oil, a soybean oil, or some other oil as tagged. Flush
the system to avoid contaminating the material that
has been designated for initial material loading.
3. Select a drum of material that can eliminate the fac-
tory-test oil from the system. If necessary, check
with Graco or the material supplier for a recom-
mended solvent.
4. Before purging be sure the entire system and waste
drum are properly grounded. See Grounding, page
21.
5. Turn all heat zones’ setpoint temperature to the
material manufacturer’s recommended dispense
temperature, or a minimum of 100°F (37°C) mini-
mum.
NOTE: Remove any dispense valve orifices before
purging. Reinstall after purging has been completed.
6. Purge the material through the system for approxi-
mately 1 to 2 minutes.
7. Remove the drum if purge material was used. See
Change Drums, page 38.

Load Material
NOTICE
To prevent damage to Platen wipers, do not use a
drum of material that has been dented or damaged. An
empty drum clamp can interfere with up and down
operation of the Ram. When raising the Ram, make
sure the drum clamp stays clear of the Platen.
NOTE: Before loading material, make sure there is a
minimum overhead clearance of 110 in. (280 cm) and all
air regulators are backed off to their full counterclock-
wise position.
1. Open the Main Air Slider Valve (CA).
4. Fill displacement pump wet cup 2/3 full with Graco
Throat Seal Liquid (TSL™) for Butyl and PSA mate-
rials.
NOTE: Use IsoGuard Select
for PUR or reactive Polyurethane material. IGS is
designed to dissolve and suspend the Polyurethane
materials. IGS will solidify after a period of time and
should be replaced once the solidified lube does not
return to liquid form after heating.

2. Set Ram Director Valve (CC) to UP and slowly turn
the Ram Up Regulator (CD) clockwise until the
Platen (G) begins to rise.
5. Open drum, remove any packing material, and
inspect material for any contamination.
6. Slide the drum between the drum centering guides
and against the stops at the back of the Ram base-
plate.
