ble suction tube.

and suction tube strainer and orient as shown.

NOTICE
Failure to properly clean sprayer after each use will
result in hardened materials, damage to the sprayer, and
the warranty will no longer be valid. Do not store solvents
other than mineral spirits in sprayer. Always flush with
Graco Pump Armor prior to storage.
Use only water-based or mineral spirit-type materials
with flash point greater than 100° F (38° C). Do not use
materials which state “FLAMMABLE” on the packaging.
For more information about your material, request MSDS
from distributor or retailer.
Spraying certain materials may cause static build-up
in the sprayer that can result in static shock to the
user. If this occurs, first ensure the material has a flash
point greater than 100° F (38° C) and does not state that it
is FLAMMABLE anywhere on the package. If still feeling a
static shock, the material likely contains a non-mineral
spirits fluid such as, but not limited to, xylene, toluene, or
naphtha, which can build up static. Switch to an alterna-
tive material.
Use oil-based material outdoors or in a well-ventilated
indoor area with a flow of fresh air.
Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of
fresh air moving through the area.
NOTICE
Protect the internal parts of this sprayer from water.
Do not submerge the sprayer in cleaning fluid. Openings
in shroud allow cooling of mechanical parts and electron-
ics inside. If water or cleaning fluid gets into these open-
ings, the sprayer could malfunction or become
permanently damaged.
