Setup
Wet Cup
Before starting, fill the wet cup (L) 1/3 full with Graco
Throat Seal Liquid (TSL) or a compatible solvent.
Torque the Wet Cup
The wet cup is torqued at the factory; however, throat
packing seals on Severe Duty pumps may relax over
time. Check wet cup torque frequently after initial
start-up and periodically after the first week of produc-
tion. Maintaining proper wet cup torque is important to
extending seal life.

NOTE: MaxLife pumps use a special u-cup throat seal
that is non-adjustable and does not require periodic
torquing.
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 22.
2. Torque the wet cup (R) 95-115 ft-lbs (128-155 N•m)
using the packing nut wrench (supplied) whenever
necessary. Do not overtighten the wet cup. See the
