Install The Fluid Hose - Graco PRO 5500wb Instructions-Parts List Manual

Install the Fluid Hose

NOTE:
D A Graco waterborne fluid hose must be used
between the voltage isolation system fluid outlet
and the spray gun fluid inlet. See page 56 to order
the Graco waterborne fluid hoses and the hose
replacement parts.
D Before connecting the fluid supply line to the gun,
blow it out with air, and flush it with water to remove
contaminants.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
To reduce the risk of an electric shock,
install only one continuous Graco water-
borne fluid hose between the isolated
fluid supply and the spray gun. Do not splice hoses
together.
1. For the fluid hose to seal properly, the hose must
be stripped and assembled to the dimensions
shown in Fig. 12. A new Graco waterborne fluid
hose comes fully assembled to the proper dimen-
sions.
CAUTION
Be careful not to cut into the inner hose layer (K)
when stripping the hose. Nicks or cuts in the tube will
cause premature hose failure.
2. Inspect the condition of the o-rings (G) on the hose
barbed-fitting. Replace the o-rings if they are worn
or damaged.
Installation
3. Unscrew the strain relief nut (L) from the fluid inlet
fitting (P1), and slide the nut onto the hose (H).
See Fig. 13.
4. Apply a light coat of dielectric grease (supplied
with the gun) to the entire length of the exposed
inner hose layer (K). See Fig. 12.
