WARNING CAUTION
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of serious This symbol alerts you to the possibility of damage to
injury or death if you do not follow the instructions. 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.

 This equipment is for professional use only.

 Read all instruction manuals, tags, and labels before operating the equipment.

 Use the equipment only for its intended purpose. If you are not sure, call your Graco distributor.

 Do not alter or modify this equipment.

 Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

 Do not exceed the maximum working pressure stated on the equipment or in the Technical Data
section of the instruction manual for your equipment. Do not exceed the maximum working
pressure of the lowest rated component in your system.

 Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with the equipment wetted parts. Refer to the
Technical Data section of all equipment manuals. Read the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s
warnings.

 Do not use 1,1,1–trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents,

or fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum equipment. Such use could result in a
chemical reaction, with the possibility of explosion.

 Handle hoses carefully. Do not pull on hoses to move equipment.

 Route hoses away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces. Do not
expose Graco hoses to temperatures above 82 C (180 F) or below –40 C (–40 F).

 Do not lift pressurized equipment.

 Comply with all applicable local, state, and national fire, electrical, and safety regulations.

2 308485
 WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
Fluid from the dispensing valve, 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.

 Fluid injected into the skin may look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate
surgical treatment.

 Do not point the dispensing valve at anyone or at any part of the body.

 Do not put your hand or fingers over the end of the dispensing valve.

 Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

 Use only extensions and no-drip tips that are designed for use with your dispensing valve.

 Do not use a low-pressure flexible nozzle with this equipment.

 Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 if the dispensing valve clogs and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.

 Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.

 Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do
not repair high pressure couplings; you must replace the entire hose.

 Fluid hoses must have spring guards on both ends to help protect them from rupture caused by
kinks or bends near the couplings.

HAZARDOUS FLUIDS
Improper handling of hazardous fluids or inhaling toxic fumes can cause extremely serious injury or
death from splashing in the eyes, ingestion, or bodily contamination.

 Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using.

 Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of hazardous fluid according to all local,
state, and national guidelines.

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

308485 3
 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.

 Ground the equipment and the object being lubricated. Refer to Grounding on page 7.

 If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop
dispensing immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.

 Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable fumes from solvents or the fluid
being dispensed.

 Keep the dispensing area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.

 Before operating this equipment, electrically disconnect all equipment in the dispensing area.

 Before operating this equipment, extinguish all open flames or pilot lights in the dispensing area.

 Do not smoke in the dispensing area.

 Do not turn on or off any light switch in the dispensing area while dispensing or while there are
any fumes in the air.

 Do not operate a gasoline engine in the dispensing area.

MOVING PARTS HAZARD

Moving parts, such as the air motor piston, can pinch or amputate your fingers.

 Keep clear of all moving parts when starting or operating the pump.

 Before servicing the equipment, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 to prevent the
equipment from starting unexpectedly.

date of sale to the original purchaser for use. With the exception of any special, extended, or limited warranty published by Graco,
Graco will, for a period of twelve months from the date of sale, repair or replace any part of the equipment determined by Graco to be
defective. This warranty applies only when the equipment is installed, operated and maintained in accordance with Graco’s written
recommendations.

This warranty does not cover, and Graco shall not be liable for general wear and tear, or any malfunction, damage or wear caused by
faulty installation, misapplication, abrasion, corrosion, inadequate or improper maintenance, negligence, accident, tampering, or sub-
stitution of non-Graco component parts. Nor shall Graco be liable for malfunction, damage or wear caused by the incompatibility of
Graco equipment with structures, accessories, equipment or materials not supplied by Graco, or the improper design, manufacture,
installation, operation or maintenance of structures, accessories, equipment or materials not supplied by Graco.

This warranty is conditioned upon the prepaid return of the equipment claimed to be defective to an authorized Graco distributor for
verification of the claimed defect. If the claimed defect is verified, Graco will repair or replace free of charge any defective parts. The
equipment will be returned to the original purchaser transportation prepaid. If inspection of the equipment does not disclose any defect
in material or workmanship, repairs will be made at a reasonable charge, which charges may include the costs of parts, labor, and
transportation.

THIS WARRANTY IS EXCLUSIVE, AND IS IN LIEU OF ANY OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT
NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Graco’s sole obligation and buyer’s sole remedy for any breach of warranty shall be as set forth above. The buyer agrees that no other
remedy (including, but not limited to, incidental or consequential damages for lost profits, lost sales, injury to person or property, or any
other incidental or consequential loss) shall be available. Any action for breach of warranty must be brought within two (2) years of the
date of sale.

Graco makes no warranty, and disclaims all implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose in connection
with accessories, equipment, materials or components sold but not manufactured by Graco. These items sold, but not manufactured
by Graco (such as electric motors, switches, hose, etc.), are subject to the warranty, if any, of their manufacturer. Graco will provide
purchaser with reasonable assistance in making any claim for breach of these warranties.

In no event will Graco be liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages resulting from Graco supplying equipment
hereunder, or the furnishing, performance, or use of any products or other goods sold hereto, whether due to a breach of contract,
breach of warranty, the negligence of Graco, or otherwise.
