To unclog a Graco G-Max 7900, follow these steps:
1. Clean the Strainer – If the strainer (31) is clogged, remove and clean it. 2. Service the Piston Ball – Ensure the piston ball (25) is seating properly; service if necessary. 3. Replace Worn Packings – If the piston packings are worn or damaged, replace them. 4. Replace O-ring – If the O-ring (227) in the displacement pump is worn or damaged, replace it. 5. Clean the Intake Valve Ball – Ensure the intake valve ball is seating properly and clean it if needed. 6. Increase Engine Speed – If the engine speed is too low, increase the throttle setting. 7. Check Pressure Setting – Increase the pressure if it is too low. 8. Clean Filters or Tip – If the fluid filter (318), tip filter, or spray tip is clogged or dirty, clean them. 9. Use a Larger Hose – If there is a large pressure drop in the hose when spraying heavy materials, use a larger diameter hose or reduce its length.
