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.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the
event that injection occurs, get immediate surgical treatment.
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
• Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For example, do not try to stop
leaks with any part of the body.
• Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without nozzle tip guard in place.
• Use Graco nozzle tips.
• Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the case where the nozzle tip clogs
while spraying, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure for turning off the unit and relieving
the pressure before removing the nozzle tip to clean.
• Equipment maintains pressure after power is shut off. Do not leave the equipment
energized or under pressure while unattended. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
when the equipment is unattended or not in use, and before servicing, cleaning, or
removing parts.
• Check hoses and parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged hoses or parts.
• This system is capable of producing 3300 psi. Use Graco replacement parts or accessories
that are rated a minimum of 3300 psi.
• Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the trigger lock is functioning
properly.
• Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.
• Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be thoroughly familiar with the
controls.
