result in hardened materials, damage to the sprayer, and
the warranty will no longer be valid. Do not store solvents
other than mineral spirits in sprayer. Always flush with
Graco pump armor prior to storage.

Flushing Sprayer

in a bucket of compatible solvent.
Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of
fresh air moving through the area.
Protect the internal parts of this sprayer from water.
Do not submerge the sprayer in cleaning fluid. Openings
in shroud allow cooling of mechanical parts and electron-
ics inside. If water or cleaning fluid gets into these open-
ings, the sprayer could malfunction or become
permanently damaged.
