EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD
Misuse can cause the equipment to rupture or
malfunction and result in serious injury.
To help prevent injury
DDo not modify the extension tube or roller
frame or use parts not designed for this
equipment.
DDo not use 1,1,1--trichloroethane, methylene
chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon sol-
vents or fluids containing such solvents in this or
any other pressurized aluminum equipment.
Such use could result in a chemical reaction,
with the possibility of explosion.
ELECTROCUTION HAZARD
Failure to observe the electrical hazards described
below could result in serious injury, including burns
or electrocution.
To help prevent harmful electrical shock
DAvoid contact with power lines.
DFollow all grounding instructions in your
separate pump and gun instruction manual,
and comply with all local, state, and national
fire, electrical, and safety regulations.
DUse only Graco paint hoses.
FLUID INJECTION HAZARD
If high-pressure fluid pierces your skin, the injury
might look like “just a cut”. But it is a serious
wound. Get immediate medical attention.
To help prevent injection
DKeep your hands and body away form the
roller frame when flushing. High pressure
fluid emitted from the holes in the frame
could cause an injection injury.
DAlways relieve pressure before you check or
repair leaks and when you turn off pump or stop
painting.
DNever use components rated less than system
Maximum Working Pressure.
INSTRUCTIONS
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Improper grounding, poor ventilation, open
flames or sparks can cause a hazardous
condition and result in a fire or explosion and
serious injury.
To help prevent injury from fire or explosion
DProvide fresh air ventilation to avoid the
buildup of flammable fumes from flushing
fluids or the coating being applied.
DKeep the application area free of debris,
including solvent, rags, and gasoline.

2. Prime pump.
3. Install roller frame.
Cleaning
This is the procedure for flushing the pressure roller.
The pump and gun you are using may have additional
flushing steps, such as cleaning filters and screens.
See the pump and gun flushing instructions.
NOTE: Leave the pressure roller attached to the gun
