Caulking Gun
309162B
Graco Power Caulkt guns are made with heavy duty, all metal construction. They
use on-demand, regulated air power to provide fast, consistent, and smooth
application of adhesives and sealants. Regulated air pressure dispenses in a
smooth, even bead. These guns feature an instant exhaust valve to prevent dripping
or stringing when the trigger is released.
Model C27098 100 psi (0.7 MPa, 7 bar) Maximum Working Pressure
This gun accommodates a 10-oz. (.3 l.). plastic or fiber cartridge. A bayonet lock
makes for fast and easy attachment of the cartridge. A lightweight cast aluminum
handle gives you variable dispense rates depending on air pressure or trigger
position.

WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause
extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin
can also cause serious injury.
D Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate medi-
cal attention.
D Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
D Do not put your hand or fingers over the dispense tip.
D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.
D Tighten all connections before operating the equipment.
D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn, damaged, or loose parts immediately.
Permanently coupled hoses cannot be repaired; replace the entire hose.
D Use only Graco approved hoses. Do not remove any spring guard that is used to help protect the
hose from rupture caused by kinks or bends near the couplings.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop dis-
pensing immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
D Keep the dispensing area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
D Electrically disconnect all equipment in the dispensing area.
D Extinguish all open flames or pilot lights in the dispensing area.
D Do not smoke in the dispensing area.
D Do not turn on or off any light switch in the dispensing area while operating or if fumes are present.
D Do not operate a gasoline engine in the dispensing area.
TOXIC MATERIAL HAZARD
Hazardous material or toxic fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the
skin, inhaled, or swallowed.
D Know the specific hazards of the product you are using.
D Store hazardous material in an approved container. Dispose of hazardous material according to all
local, state and national guidelines.

manufacturer.

Installation
5. Practice applying a bead on scrap material. Hold
General Information
the gun at a slight angle from the point of applica-
tion to produce a smooth, flat-tooled bead. Too
great an angle produces a round-tooled bead.
NOTE: Reference numbers and letters in parentheses
in the text refer to the callouts in the figures and the
parts drawing.
6. If the caulking compound continues to flow when
the trigger is released, disconnect the air line.
Remove the barrel (see Removing the barrel)
and check the plunger in the cartridge. Air will
bypass a stuck plunger. To free the plunger from
the wall of the cartridge, push the plunger forward
manually.
NOTE: Always use Genuine Graco Parts and Acces-
sories, available from your Graco distributor. If you
supply your own accessories, be sure they are ade-
quately sized and pressure-rated for your system.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of bodily injury and property
damage, stop using the gun if the bayonet lock on
the gun handle is worn or damaged and prevents
the barrel from locking securely into position.
CAUTION
To extend the life of the bayonet lock, follow the
barrel installation and removal procedures carefully.
Installation
Removing the barrel
1. Insert a cartridge in the barrel. To ensure a good
seal, verify that the plunger end of the cartridge is
not torn. See Removing the barrel and Installing
the barrel elsewhere on this page.
To remove the barrel from the hand grip, push the
barrel straight back and fully into the gun handle.
Continue pushing the barrel back while rotating the
gun barrel out of the bayonet lock and sliding it out of
the gun handle.
2. Cut the cartridge nozzle tip to the desired opening
size. Cut the tip squarely rather than at an angle.
Puncture the inner seal of the cartridge.
Installing the barrel
3. Connect an air line to the 1/4” npt air hose fitting.
use an adjustable regulator to provide maximum
application control.
Place the barrel in the handle grip by pushing the
barrel straight back and fully into the gun handle.
Continue pushing the barrel back while rotating the
barrel into the bayonet lock, which locks the barrel into
the gun handle.
4. Adjust the air pressure to 10 to 15 psi (about 1
bar). Pull the trigger to start flow. Adjust air pres-
sure to help control the flow rate. The flow rate can
also be controlled through the trigger. When par-
tially triggered, air bypasses the valve (leaking of
air) and reduces the flow rate. When fully trig-
gered, no air escapes. Do not use more air pres-
sure than necessary to develop a good application
rate and solid bead.
Repair
A spring/seal repair kit, P/N C27100, and a replace-
ment hose assembly, P/NC27106 are available. No
other parts are sold separately. See the Parts drawing
on page .
