Installation

The UniDrum Supply System is supplied with every
major component attached and weighs approxi-
mately 3950 lb (1792 kg). The UniDrum Supply Sys-
tem should never be moved or lifted by one person.
To avoid serious injury or equipment damage,
engage an adequate number of personnel and use a
forklift, hand truck, and support devices, such as a
hoist when moving and installing the UniDrum.
Exercise care when the system is being moved to its
installed location. Jarring, dropping, or tilting the frame
while it is being lifted or moved can result in damage to
the system.
The installation procedures in this section are intended
to serve as a guide for installing the UniDrum Supply
System. If you need more information, contact your
Graco distributor.
NOTE: When raising and lowering the Ram, be sure
that the unit is unobstructed overhead to avoid
interference with other objects.

Preparing the Site

Ensure that you have an adequate compressed air supply.
Refer to the applicable instruction manual listed in
Related Manuals on page 3 to find the air consumption
of your Pump. Approximately 450 cfm at 80 psi is required
to operate the Pumps at the maximum rate.
Keep the site clear of any obstacles or debris that could
interfere with the installer's and operator's movement.

NOTICE
Selecting a Location for the
UniDrum
Refer to Technical Specifications on page 77 for ram
mounting and clearance dimensions.
When selecting a location for the UniDrum, keep the
following in mind:
1. There should be sufficient space for installing,
servicing, and using the equipment.
• Select an accessible location for the system.
There must be sufficient space around the
system for maintenance.
• Select a convenient location for the equipment.
Check that there is sufficient overhead clearance
for the Pump and ram when the ram is in the fully
raised position. Make sure the Air Regulators
(AC, AE) for the Pumps (C) and Follower Plate (D)
are fully accessible.
• Make sure the air source for the control panel
and shutoff valves are fully accessible.
• Make sure there is easy and safe access to an
appropriate pneumatic source. Graco
recommends a minimum of 3 feet (0.91 m) of
open space in front of the Pneumatic Logic Panel
(G).
2. Make sure that you will be able to level the base of
the ram using metal shims.

Preparing to Install the UniDrum

Before installing the system:
See component manuals for specific data on
component requirements. Data presented here
pertains to the system only.
Have all system and subassembly documentation
available during installation.
Be sure that all non-Graco supplied hoses are
adequately sized and pressure-rated to meet the
system requirements.
