WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or
explode. To help prevent fire and explosion:
• Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame or
sources of ignition such as cigarettes, motors, and electrical equipment.
• Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static
electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence
of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system, including the pump,
hose assembly, spray gun, and objects in and around the spray area shall be
properly grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use Graco
conductive or grounded high-pressure airless paint sprayer hoses.
• Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static
discharge. Do not use pail liners unless they are antistatic or conductive.
• Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extensions cords. Do not use
a 3-to-2 adapter.
• Do not use a paint or a solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.
• Do not spray flammable or combustible liquids in a confined area.
• Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving
through the area.
• Sprayer generates sparks. Keep pump assembly in a well ventilated area at
least 20 feet (6.1 m) from the spray area when spraying, flushing, cleaning, or
servicing. Do not spray pump assembly.
• Do not smoke in the spray area or spray where sparks or flame is present.
• Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in
the spray area.
• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other
flammable materials.
• Know the contents of the paints and solvents being sprayed. Read all Material
Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided with the paints and
solvents. Follow the paint and solvents manufacturer’s safety instructions.
• Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
This equipment must be grounded. Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the
system can cause electric shock.
• Turn off and disconnect power cord before servicing equipment.
• Connect only to grounded electrical outlets.
• Use only 3-wire extension cords.
• Ensure ground prongs are intact on power and extension cords.
• Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
• Wait five minutes after disconnecting power cord before servicing large
capacitor units.
