Warnings
Warnings
The following general warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. Addi-
tional, more specific warnings may be found throughout the body of this manual where applicable. Symbols appear-
ing in the body of the manual refer to these general warnings. When these symbols appear throughout the manual,
refer back to these pages for a description of the specific hazard.
WARNING
EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause death or serious injury.
• Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system
component. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.
• Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all
equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings. For complete information
about your material, request MSDS forms from distributor or retailer.
• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately with genuine Graco
replacement parts only.
• Do not alter or modify equipment.
• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.
• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.
• Do not kink or over bend hoses or use hoses to pull equipment.
• Keep children and animals away from work area.
• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from dispense valve, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may
look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical
treatment.
• Do not point dispense valve at anyone or at any part of the body.
• Do not put your hand over the end of the dispense nozzle.
• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
• Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop dispensing and before cleaning,
checking, or servicing equipment.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch or amputate fingers and other body parts.
• Keep clear of moving parts.
• Do not operate equipment with protective guards or covers removed.
• Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equipment,
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual. Disconnect power or air supply.

Grounding
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump
and all other components used or located in the
dispensing area. Check your local electrical code for
detailed instructions for your area and type of
equipment.
Ground this equipment:
Pump: remove the ground screw (Z) and insert through
the eye of the ring terminal at end of ground wire (Y).
Fasten the ground screw back onto the pump and
tighten securely. Connect the other end of the ground
wire to a true earth ground. See FIG. 1. To order a
ground wire and clamp, order Part No. 222011.

Air Line and Accessories
NOTE: Install air line accessories in the order
shown in the Typical Installation illustration.
Trapped air can cause the air motor to cycle
unexpectedly, causing serious injury if you are
adjusting or repairing the pump. Be sure to follow the
•
Install a pump runaway valve (G) to shut off the air
to the pump if the pump accelerates beyond the pre-
adjusted setting. A pump that runs too fast can be
seriously damaged.
•
•
Install the air regulator (C) to control pump speed
and pressure.
On the main air supply line from the compressor,
install an air line filter (E) to remove harmful dirt and
contaminants fro the compressed air supply.
•
•
Install an air line lubricator (F) for automatic air
motor lubrication.
Install a bleed-type master air valve (H) to relieve air
trapped between the valve and the motor when the
valve is closed.
•
For models 253384 through 253390, install the pro-
vided air regulator/safety valve (K) at the pump air
inlet with the nipple (9a, also included).
Avoid hanging air accessories directly on the pump
air inlet. The fittings are not strong enough to sup-
port the accessories and may cause one or more to
break. If accessories must be installed directly on
the pump, provide a bracket on which to mount
them.

Operation
Operation
NOTE: A pump runaway valve can be installed on
the air line to automatically shut off the pump if it
starts to run too fast.
Pressure Relief Procedure
NOTE: Never allow the pump to run dry of the fluid
being pumped. A dry pump will quickly accelerate
to a high speed, possibly damaging itself. If the
pump accelerates quickly or is running too fast,
stop it immediately and check the fluid supply. If the
supply container is empty and air has been
pumped into the lines, prime the pump and lines
with fluid, or flush it and leave it filled with a com-
patible solvent. Be sure to eliminate all air from the
fluid system
1. Shut off the air to the pump.
2. Bleed off the air pressure by closing the air regulator
(self–relieving type), or closing the bleed–type mas-
ter air valve installed upstream of the air regulator,
or disconnecting the air supply hose at the
quick–disconnect.
3. Hold a metal part of the gun or valve firmly to the
side of a grounded metal waster container and trig-
ger to relieve fluid pressure.
The maximum working pressure of each pump in your
system may not be the same. To reduce the risk of
over–pressurizing any part of your system, be sure you
know the maximum working pressure rating of each
pump and its connected components. Never exceed
the maximum working pressure of the lowest rated
component connected to a particular pump.
Start–up: Single or Multiple Pump Systems
1. Close the air regulators and bleed–type master air
valves to all but one pump.
2. Open the master air valve from the compressor.
3. For the pump which is connected, trigger the dis-
pensing valve into a grounded metal waste con-
tainer, making firm metal–to–metal contact between
the container and valve. Open the bleed–type mas-
ter air valve, and open the pump air regulator slowly
until the pump is running. When the pump is primed
and all air has been pushed out of the lines, release
the trigger.
To determine the fluid output pressure using the air
regulator reading, multiply the ratio of the pump by the
air pressure shown on the regulator gauge. For exam-
ple:
50:(1) ratio x 100 psi air = 5000 psi fluid output
50:(1) ratio x 0.7 MPa air = 35 MPa fluid output
50:(1) ratio x 7 bar air = 350 bar fluid output
4. If you have more than one pump, repeat this proce-
dure for each pump.
Limit the air to the pump so that no air line or fluid line
component or accessory is overpressurized.
NOTE: When the pump is primed, and with suffi-
cient air supplied, the pump starts when the dis-
pensing valve is opened and shuts off when it is
closed.
6. Read and follow the instructions supplied with each
component in the system.
5. Set the air pressure to each pump at the lowest
pressure needed to get the desired results.
7. When shutting off the system, always follow the
Pressure Relief Procedure.
