Symbols Warning Symbol Caution Symbol WARNING CAUTION This symbol alerts you to the possibility of serious injury or death if you do not follow the instructions. This symbol alerts you to the possibility of damage to or destruction of equipment if you do not follow the instructions. WARNING EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD Equipment misuse can cause the equipment to rupture or malfunction and result in serious injury. INSTRUCTIONS D This equipment is for professional use only.
WARNING SKIN INJECTION HAZARD Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin can also cause serious injury. D Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate surgical treatment. D Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body. D Do not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip.
WARNING FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Improper grounding, poor ventilation, open flames or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and result in a fire or explosion and serious injury. D Ground the equipment and the object being sprayed. Refer to Grounding on page 7. D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop spraying immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
Setup General Information Prepare the Site NOTE: Reference numbers and letters in parentheses in the text refer to the callouts in the figures and the parts drawing. Ensure that you have an adequate compressed air supply. Refer to the performance charts on page 18 to find the air consumption of your pump. NOTE: Always use Genuine Graco Parts and Accessories, available from your Graco distributor. Refer to Product Data Sheet 305900.
Setup 3. Air and fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive hoses. Grounding WARNING FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Before operating the pump, ground the system as explained below. Also read the section FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD on page 5. 1. Pump: use the ground wire and clamp (supplied). See Fig. 1. Loosen the grounding lug locknut (W) and washer (X). Insert one end of the ground wire (18) into the slot in lug (Z) and tighten the locknut securely. Connect the other end of the wire to a true earth ground.
Setup Supplied Components D The air relief valve (15) opens automatically to prevent overpressurization of the pump. Refer to Fig. 2. WARNING A red-handled bleed-type master air valve (E) and a fluid drain valve (F) are supplied. These components help reduce the risk of serious injury, including fluid injection and splashing of fluid in the eyes or on the skin, and injury from moving parts if you are adjusting or repairing the pump.

Operation Pressure Relief Procedure WARNING SKIN INJECTION HAZARD The system pressure must be manually relieved to prevent the system from starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you: D are instructed to relieve the pressure, D stop spraying, 6.
Operation Prime the Pump 1. See Fig. 3. Remove the tip guard and spray tip from the gun (106). Refer to the gun manual. 2. Close the pump air regulator (G), and bleed-type air valves (B, E). Agitator Operation (Models 232437 and 232449) 1. Slowly open the control valve (J) to start the agitator (39). See Fig. 3. 3. Connect the air line (A) to the air inlet swivel (H). 4. Check that all fittings throughout the system are tightened securely. 5. Fill the pail (19) with fluid.
Operation Adjust the Spray Pattern 1. Start the pump. Use the pump air regulator (G) to adjust the pump speed and fluid pressure until the spray is completely atomized. Use the lowest pressure necessary to get the desired results. Higher pressure may not improve the spray pattern and will cause premature tip and pump wear. See Fig. 3. WARNING COMPONENT RUPTURE HAZARD To reduce the risk of overpressurizing your package, which could cause component rupture and serious injury, never exceed 100 psi (0.
