WARNINGS

High Pressure Spray Can Cause Serious Injury. For Professional Use Only.

Observe All Warnings. Read and understand all instruction manuals before operating equipment.

FLUID INJECTION HAZARD

General Safety

This equipment generates very high fluid pressure. Spray from the gun, leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid through your skin and into your body, and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Also, fluid injected or splashed into the eyes or on the skin can cause serious damage.

Spray Tip Safety

Use extreme caution when cleaning or changing spray tips. If the spray tip clogs while spraying, engage the trigger safety latch immediately. ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF

PROCEDURE, below, and then remove the spray tip to clean it.

NEVER wipe off build–up around the spray tip until the pressure is fully relieved and the gun safety is engageed.

NEVER point the spray gun at any one or at any part of the body.

NEVER put your hand or fingers over the spray tip. NEVER try to “blow back” paint; this is not an air spray system.

ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the spray gun when spraying.

ALWAYS follow the PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE , below, before cleaning or removing the spray tip or servicing any system equipment.

NEVER try to stop or deflect leaks with your hand or body.

Pressure Relief Procedure

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing fluid or solvent in the eyes or on the skin, or injury from moving parts or electric shock, always follow this procedure whenever you shut off the sprayer, when checking or servicing any part of the spray system, when installing, cleaning or changing spray tips, and whenever you stop spraying.

Be sure equipment safety devices are operating properly before each use.

Medical Alert––Airless Spray Wounds

If any fluid appears to penetrate your skin, get EMERGENCY

MEDICAL CARE AT ONCE. DO NOT TREAT AS A SIMPLE

CUT . Tell the doctor exactly what fluid was injected.

Note to Physician: Injection in the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important to treat the injury surgically as soon as possible.

Do not delay treatment to research toxicity.

Toxicity is a concern with some exotic coatings injected directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.

Spray Gun Safety Devices

This gun has several safety devices. Be sure all of them are operating properly before each use. Do not remove or modify any part of the gun; this can cause a malfunction and result in serious injury.

. Engage the trigger safety latch.

. Shut off the power supply to the pump and close any bleed-type master air valves.

. Disengage the trigger safety latch. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, and trigger the gun to relieve pressure.

. Engage the trigger safety latch.

. Open the pressure drain valve (required in system), having a container ready to catch the drainage. Leave the valve open until you are ready to spray again.

If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the steps above, VERY SLOWLY loosen the tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Now clear the tip or hose.

MOVING PARTS HAZARD

Whenever you stop spraying, even for a moment, always set the trigger safety latch in the engaged or “safe” position, making the gun inoperative. Failure to set the trigger safety latch can result in accidental triggering of the gun. See Fig. 1.

ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the spray gun while spraying. The tip guard alerts you to the fluid injection hazard and helps reduce, but does not prevent, the risk of accidentally placing your fingers or any part of your body close to the spray tip. See Fig. 2.

Moving parts can pinch or amputate your fingers or other body parts. KEEP CLEAR of moving parts when starting or operating the sprayer. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure , above, before checking or servicing any part of the sprayer, to prevent it from starting accidentally.

RECOIL HAZARD

Always have the trigger guard in place on the gun when spraying to reduce the risk of accidentally triggering the gun if it is dropped or bumped. The fluid housing and heat shield act as a trigger guard for this gun. See Fig. 2.

Due to the high pressure fluid emitted, a strong recoil action may occur when you trigger this gun. If you are unprepared, your hand could be forced back toward your body or you could lose your balance and fall, resulting in serious injury .

EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD

General Safety

Any misuse of the spray equipment or accessories, such as overpressurizing, modifying parts, using incompatible chemicals and fluids, or using worn or damaged parts, can cause them to rupture and result in fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or other serious bodily injury, or fire, explosion or property damage.

NEVER alter or modify any part of this equipment; doing so could cause it to malfunction.

CHECK all spray equipment regularly and repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

Always wear protective eyewear, gloves, clothing and respirator as recommended by the fluid and solvent manufacturer .

Wear hearing protection when operating this equipment.

System Pressure

Do not exceed 5000 psi (345 bar) Maximum Working Pressure to the gun . Be sure all spray equipment and accessories used are rated to withstand this pressure. Do not exceed the maximum working pressure of any component or accessory used in the system.

Fluid and Solvent Compatibility

All chemicals used in the sprayer must be chemically compatible with the wetted parts shown in the TECHNICAL DATA on the back cover . Consult your chemical supplier to ensure compatibility.

HOSE SAFETY

High pressure fluid in the hoses can be very dangerous. If the hose develops a leak, split or rupture due to any kind of wear, damage or misuse, the high pressure spray emitted from it can cause a fluid injection injury or other serious bodily injury or property damage.

All fluid hoses must have strain reliefs on both ends!

The strain reliefs help protect the hose from kinks or bends at or close to the coupling which can result in hose rupture.

Tighten all fluid connections securely before each use. High pressure fluid can dislodge a loose coupling or allow high pressure spray to be emitted from the coupling.

Never use a damaged hose. Before each use, check the entire hose for cuts, leaks, abrasion, bulging cover , or damage or movement of the hose couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the hose immediately. Do not try to recouple high pressure hose or mend it with tape or any other device. A repaired hose cannot contain the high pressure fluid.

Handle and route hoses carefully. Do not pull on hoses to move equipment. Keep hoses clear of moving parts and hot surfaces of the pump and power supply. Do not use fluids or solvents which are not compatible with the inner tube and cover of the hose. DO NOT expose Graco hoses to temperatures above

180 F (82 C) or below –40 F (–40 C).

Hose Grounding Continuity

Proper hose grounding continuity is essential to maintaining a grounded spray system. Check the electrical resistance of your fluid hoses at least once a week. If your hose does not have a tag on it which specifies the maximum electrical resistance, contact the hose supplier or manufacturer for the maximum resistance limits. Use a resistance meter in the appropriate range for your hose to check the resistance. If the resistance exceeds the recommended limits, replace it immediately . An ungrounded or poorly grounded hose can make your system hazardous. Also read FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD, below .

FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD

Static electricity is created by the flow of fluid through the pump and hose. If every part of the spray equipment is not properly grounded, sparking may occur , and the system may become hazardous. Sparking may also occur when plugging in or unplugging a power supply cord or using a gasoline engine.

Sparks can ignite fumes from solvents and the fluid being sprayed, dust particles and other flammable substances, whether you are spraying indoors or outdoors, and can cause a fire or explosion and serious bodily injury and property damage. Do not plug in or unplug any power supply cords in the spray area when there is any chance of igniting fumes still in the air.

If you experience any static sparking or even a slight shock while using this equipment, stop spraying immediately .

Check the entire system for proper grounding. Do not use the system again until the problem has been identified and corrected.

Grounding

To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the sprayer and all other spray equipment used or located in the spray area. Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equipment. Be sure to ground all of this spray equipment:

IMPORTANT

.

Pump or Sprayer: provide appropriate grounding as recommended in your pump or sprayer instruction manual.

.

Fluid hoses: use only grounded hoses with a maximum f

500 ft (150 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity. See Hose Grounding Continuity, above.

.

Spray gun: obtain grounding through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and sprayer.

.

Object being sprayed: according to local code.

.

Fluid supply container: according to local code.

.

All solvent pails used when flushing, according to local code.

Use only metal pails, which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a non–conductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.

.

To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure, always hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.

Flushing Safety

To reduce the risk of fluid injection injury , static sparking, or splashing, be sure the system is properly grounded, relieve pressure, remove spray tip. Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail and use the lowest possible fluid pressure during flushing.

United States Government safety standards have been adopted under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. These standards

– particularly the General Standards, Part 1910, and the Construction Standards, Part 1926 – should be consulted.

Installation/Operation

System Requirements.

WARNING

Keep the wallet-sized warning card provided with this gun with the operator at all times. The card contains important treatment information should an injection injury occur. Additional cards are available at no charge from Graco Inc.

How to Use the Gun.

1. If an accessory in-line filter is used, connect it to the grounded fluid supply hose. Connect the supply hose to one gun port and connect an electrically conductive, fluid return hose to the other port.

2. With no tip installed, start the pump. Flush the pump according to the instructions supplied with it.

Prime the system with the fluid.

WARNING

Be sure your system has a bleed-type master air valve (pneumatic pumps only) and a pressure drain valve. These accessories help reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on the skin, or injury from moving parts, if you are adjusting or repairing the pump or gun.

3. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 2.

Be sure the trigger safety latch is engaged. See

Fig. 1.

4. Unscrew the tip guard (1) and install the tip (A) and the gasket (2d) in the nut of the tip guard. Screw the assembly firmly onto the gun. Tighten the assembly with a wrench. See Fig. 2.

1. The bleed-type master air valve (air-powered pumps only) relieves air trapped between this valve and the pump after the air regulator is shut off. Trapped air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly.

NOTE: If the gasket (2d) is not installed, the gun will leak.

2. The pressure drain valve assists in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun: triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient.

3. Strain the fluid you are spraying if it contains particles which could clog the spray tip.

How to Use the Trigger Safety Latch

1. To engage the trigger safety latch, turn the latch

(A) to a right angle with the gun body. See Fig. 1.

2. To disengage the trigger safety latch, push the latch (A) out and turn it parallel with the gun body.

5. Start the pump.Adjust the back pressure valve or the Restrict-A-Flo valve in the circulating system return line. Adjust the 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 wear and pump wear.

6. If adjusting the pressure does not give a good spray pattern, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 2 and then try another tip size.

7. Use a full-open, full-close triggering action. Hold the gun about 14 in. (350 mm) from and at right angles to the work surface. Don’t swing the gun in an arc. Practice to find the best length and speed of stroke.

How to Adjust the Spray Pattern.

1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 2.

Loosen the retaining nut (B). Turn the tip guard so the groove in the tip is horizontal (C) for a horizontal pattern and vertical (A) for a vertical pattern.

Tighten the retaining nut.

2. The orifice of the spray tip and the angle of the spray pattern determines the coverage and the size of the pattern. When more coverage is needed, use a larger spray tip rather than increasing the fluid pressure.

CAUTION

The openings in the tip guard reduce paint buildup on the tip guard while spraying. Any damage to the sharp edges of the openings causes paint to collect at that area. Never hang the gun by the tip guard.

How to Clean the Spray Tip and Clear a Spray Tip Obstruction.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fluid injection or splashing in the eyes or on the skin, do not hold a hand, body or rag in front of the spray tip when cleaning or checking a clogged tip. Point the gun toward the ground or into a waste container when checking to see if the spray tip is cleared.

DO NOT try to “blow back” paint; this is NOT an air spray gun.

DO NOT wipe fluid buildup off the gun or spray tip until pressure is relieved.

Cleaning during the day.

1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure, page 2.

2. Clean the front of the tip frequently during the day to help reduce buildup. Also clean the tip and tip guard at the end of each work day. Use a solventsoaked brush to clean the spray tip.

Clearing an obstruction.

If the spray tip clogs while spraying, immediately stop spraying, then:

Gun 235–465 – with standard tip guard

1. Engage the trigger safety latch, open the pressure drain valve.

2. Remove the spray tip and blow out the obstruction by applying air to the front of the spray tip. Or, let the spray tip and gun nozzle soak to dissolve the obstruction. If it won’t dissolve, jar it out by tapping the back of the spray tip against a flat surface.

CAUTION

Never soak the entire gun in solvent. Prolonged exposure to solvent can ruin the packings.

How to Flush the Gun.

WARNING

This gun uses a pre–orifice in the seat to develop the type of spray pattern required in most circulating systems. The pre-orifice does not diffuse the spray from the nozzle into an irregular pattern, as with the other airless spray guns you may have used. Therefore, to reduce the risk of an injection injury when the tip guard is not installed, such as during cleaning, take extra precautions to keep your hands and body away from the nozzle of the gun.

6. With the gun trigger released, circulate the fluid until the system is thoroughly flushed.

7. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure , page 2.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin, or static electric discharge when flushing:

D Be sure the entire system, including flushing pails, are properly grounded.

D Remove the tip guard and spray tip.

D Maintain metal to metal contact between the gun and the flushing pail.

D Use the lowest possible pressure.
