WARNING
SYSTEM PRESSURE
DO NOT exceed 3000 PSI (210 bar) MAXIMUM
WORKING PRESSURE to the gun. Be sure all
accessory items and system components are rated
to withstand the pressure developed. NEVER
exceed the pressure rating of any component in the
system.
WARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
To reduce the risk of serious injury, including fluid
injection or splashing in the eyes or on the skin,
always follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
described below before checking, servicing, instal-
ling, removing, changing or cleaning spray tips or
any part of the gun or system.
WARNING
WARNING CARD
The wallet–sized warning provided with this gun
should be kept with the operator at all times. The
card contains important treatment information
should an injection injury occur. Additional cards
are available at no charge from Graco Inc.

Pressure Relief Procedure

1. Start the pump. Adjust the fluid pressure so the
spray is completely atomized. Always use the
lowest pressure necessary to get the desired
results. Higher pressure may not improve the
spray pattern and will cause premature tip and
pump wear.

Operation

2. If adjusting the pressure does not give a good
spray pattern, try another tip size. Be sure to
relieve pressure completely before changing tips.
3. Use a full–open, full–close trigger action. Hold the
gun for about 14" (350 mm) from and at right
angles to the work surface. Don't swing the gun in
an arc. Practice to find the best length and speed
of stroke.

Gun Safety Latch

Whenever you stop spraying, even for a moment,
always set the gun safety latch in the closed or "safe"
position, making the gun inoperative. Failure to set the
safety latch can result in accidental triggering of the
gun.

Tip Guard

ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the gun while
spraying. The tip guard alerts you to the fluid injection
hazard and help reduce, but does not prevent, the risk
of accidentally placing your fingers or any part of your
body close to the spray tip.

Trigger Guard

ALWAYS have the trigger guard in place on the gun
when spraying to reduce the risk of accidentally trig-
gering the gun if it is dropped or bumped.
