ence to callouts in the Component Identification sec-
tion starting on page 7.
NOTE: Refer to the E-Flo SP Software Instructions
manual for ADM setup instructions. See Related Manu-
als on page 2.

Wet Cup

Before starting, fill the wet cup (H) 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 the pumps may relax over time. Check
wet cup torque frequently after initial start-up and peri-
odically after the first week of production. Maintaining
proper wet cup torque is important to extending seal life.

Flush the Pump

To avoid fire and explosion, always ground the equip-
ment and the waste container. To avoid static spark-
ing and injury from splashing, always flush at the
lowest possible pressure.
NOTE: The pump is tested with lightweight oil, which is
left in to protect the pump parts. If the fluid you are using
may be contaminated by the oil, flush it out with a com-
patible solvent before using the pump.
Always flush at the lowest pressure possible. Check
connectors for leaks and tighten as necessary. Flush
with a fluid that is compatible with the fluid being dis-
pensed and the equipment wetted parts.
NOTE: Check with your fluid manufacturer or supplier
for recommended flushing fluids and flushing frequency.
To prevent damage to the pump from rust, never
leave water or water-based fluid in a carbon steel
pump overnight. If you are pumping a water-based
fluid, flush with water first. Then flush with a rust
inhibitor, such as mineral spirits. Relieve pressure,
but leave the rust inhibitor in the pump to protect
parts from corrosion.
NOTE: Refer to the E-Flo SP Software Instructions
manual for information about using the software features
of the ADM. See Related Manuals on page 2.
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 16.
2. Turn the disconnect switch (J) ON.
3. At the ADM (D), use the ADM's arrow keys to select
the pump you want to flush from the Menu Bar.
NOTE: If multiple pumps are connected together, there
can be up to six pumps shown in the Menu Bar.
