Pressure Control Adjustment - Graco LINE LAZER A Series Instructions And Parts List

Pressure Control Adjustment

Use extreme caution when performing this calibra-
tion procedure to reduce the risk of a fluid injection in-
jury or other serious bodily injury, which can result from
component rupture, electric shock, fire, explosion or
moving parts.
This procedure sets the sprayer to 2600–3000 psi
(182–210 bar) Maximum Working Pressure.
Perform this procedure whenever the pressure control
assembly is removed and reinstalled, or replaced, to be
sure the sprayer is properly calibrated.
Improper calibration can cause the sprayer to over–
pressurize and result in component rupture, fire or ex-
plosion. It may also prevent the sprayer from obtaining

Set Up
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure Warning on
page 4.
2. Set up the system as shown in Fig. 30.
Set the Dead Band (Pressure Differential)
1. Remove the pressure control cover.
NOTE: Do not alter this adjustment if the wheel is already
set as shown in Fig. 31.
2. Set the white dif ferential wheel (A) on the micro-
switch. Turn the wheel so the letter F is concealed
behind the switch and the letter E is the first letter
seen.
Pressure Up
1. Start the sprayer and prime it.
2. Adjust the pressure to 2600 psi (180 bar).
3. Shut off the engine. If the pressure drops after the en-
gine is shut of f, replace the pump packings before
proceeding. See page 26.
Adjust the Pressure
1. Remove the plug (320) in the bottom of the pressure
control.
2. Turn and hold the pressure control knob (B) at the
maximum pressure.
3. Engage the nut (C): Insert the nut driver through the
pressure control hole (D), or use an ignition wrench
inserted from the front of the pressure control.

the maximum working pressure, resulting in poor
sprayer performance.
NEVER attempt to increase the fluid outlet pressure by
performing these calibrations in any other way. Never
Exceed 3000 Psi (210 Bar) Maximum W orking Pres-
sure. Normal operation of the sprayer at higher pres-
sures could result in component rupture, fire or explo-
sion.
ALWAYS use a new 50 foot (15.2 m) spray hose, rated
for at least 3000 psi (210 bar) Maximum Working Pres-
sure, when performing this procedure. A used, under–
rated hose could develop a high pressure leak or rup-
ture.
