Setup - Graco 231-576 Instructions-Parts List Manual

NOTE: A 55 gallon (200 liter) suction tube kit,
208–259, is available.
WARNING
If you are supplying your own hoses and spray
gun, be sure the hoses are electrically conductive,
that the gun has a tip guard, and that each part is
rated for at least 3000 psi ( 207 bar, 21 MPa,)
Maximum Working Pressure . This is to reduce the
risk of serious injury caused by static sparking, fluid
injection or over-pressurization and rupture of the
hose or gun.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the pressure control, which may
result in poor equipment performance and compo-
nent damage, follow these precautions.
1. Always use nylon spray hose. Never use a wire
braid hose; it is too rigid to act as a pulsation
dampener.
2. Always use a minimum hose length of 100 ft
(30.4 m) 1/4 in. ID or 50 ft (15.2 m) 3/8 in. ID
hose.
3. Never install any shutoff device between the filter
(51) and main hose (202). See Fig. 2.
4. Always use the primary filter outlet (N) for a one
gun operation. Never plug this outlet.
1. Connect hose and gun. (Fig. 2)
a. Remove the plastic cap from the 1/4 npsm(m)
filter outlet nipple (N). Screw the 50 foot (15.2
m) main fluid hose (202) onto the nipple. Read
the CAUTION, above.
b. Connect the whip end hose (203) between the
main fluid hose and the inlet adapter of the
gun (204).
c. DO NOT use thread sealant, and DO NOT
install the spray tip yet!

Setup

2. Two gun hookup. Remove the cap from the

4. Check the engine oil level. Refer to the Honda
engine manual, supplied. This is a summary of the
information: Remove one of the oil fill plugs (R);
the oil should be almost overflowing. See Fig. 3.
Add oil as necessary.
Recommended lubrication oil: Use a high–quality,
detergent oil, SAE 10W–40, classified "FOR
