Installation
Grounding
Pump: unscrew the green grounding screw (W) and
washer (X) located on the ram base (Z). Install a 1.5
mm2(12 awg) minimum ground wire (Y) and secure with
the screw and washer. Connect the other end of the
ground wire to a true earth ground.
Air and fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive
hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined
hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check elec-
trical resistance of hoses. If total resistance to ground
exceeds 29 megohms, replace hose immediately.
Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommenda-
tions.
Spray gun / Dispense valve: ground through connec-
tion to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
Fluid supply container: follow local code.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray
gun/dispense valve firmly to the side of a grounded
metal pail, then trigger the gun/valve.
Pump Location and Set Up
NOTE: Reference numbers and letters in parentheses
in the text refer to the callouts in FIG. 1 on page 6 and
the parts drawings. Refer to those for installation.
If you supply your own accessories, be sure they are
adequately sized and pressure-rated to meet the sys-
tem’s requirements. Contact your Graco distributor for
assistance in designing a system to suit your needs.
1. Place the unit on a hard, level surface. Check that
the unit is level in all directions. Refer to Dimen-
sions on page 28 to ensure that there is sufficient
overhead clearance for the pump when the ram is
fully raised. Leave room on both sides so the air
regulators will be easily accessible.
2. Read the section Pump Components and Acces-
sories on page 8. Connect an air supply hose to the
1/4 npt(f) main air inlet fitting (57). See FIG. 1 on
page 6. Refer to Connect and Disconnect Tubes
on page 8.
Wiper Plate Setup
1. Unpack the wiper plate (P). Back out the screws
(302) so they clear the pump fluid intake housing
(111).
2. Raise the ram by setting the ram director valve
switch (36) to the up position and increasing the set-
ting of the ram air regulator (27B).
3. Place the wiper plate (P) on a 2 in. thick x 4 in. wide
block of wood. Center the wiper plate and the wood
block on the base, under the pump intake housing
(111).
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk
of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to
ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire
for the electric current.

4. Set the ram air regulator (27B) to zero. Set the ram
director valve switch (36) to the down position. As
the ram unit slowly falls, guide the pump intake
housing (111) into the wiper plate (P).
5. Set the ram air regulator (27B) to 10 psi (0.07 MPa,
0.7 bar). Push down on the pump to install the wiper
plate (P) onto the intake housing (111). Secure the
wiper plate to the pump with the two screws (302).
6. Connect the 660 mm (26 in.) air line tube (76) from
the connector (37) at the air assist valve (18) to the
connector (310) at the wiper plate (P). Refer to Con-
nect and Disconnect Tubes on this page.
Connect and Disconnect Tubes
Follow these steps when connecting and disconnecting
any air tubes on the DynaMite 190 Extruder assembly
Connection
1. Grasp the tube, then slowly push it straight into the
fitting until it stops.
2. Be sure that the tube is securely connected, and will
not pull out when air pressure is applied. To check,
pull gently on the tube.
Disconnection
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 9.
2. Push evenly on the fitting’s red release button.
3. While holding the release button in, pull the tube out
of the fitting.
4. To reuse the tubing, cut off the previous connection
portion at 90°, being careful not to damage the outer
diameter of the tube.
NOTE: Use of a tube cutter is recommended. The fitting
will leak if the tubing is not cut at 90°.
Pump Components and
Accessories
The following components are supplied with the pump
(see FIG. 1 on page 6).
•The bleed-type master air valve (8) is supplied
with your system to relieve air trapped between this
valve and the pump after the air is shut off. Trapped
air can cause the pump to cycle unexpectedly. The
valve is located close to the pump, downstream
from the pump air regulator.
•The pump air regulator (27A) controls pump
speed and outlet pressure by adjusting the air pres-
sure to the pump. The regulator is located upstream
from the bleed-type master air valve.
•The ram air regulator (27B) controls ram speed by
adjusting the air pressure to the ram, and also con-
trols the pressure exerted by the wiper plate on the
fluid.
•The pump bleeder valve (25) is supplied in your
system to relieve fluid pressure in the displacement
pump, hose, and dispensing valve. Triggering the
dispensing valve to relieve pressure may not be suf-
ficient. Be sure the drain hole in the valve is pointing
down. This valve is also used to bleed air from the
pump when priming.
Air Line
Connect an air supply line to the 1/4 npt(f) main air inlet
fitting (57). Install an air line filter and lubricator in the
main air line. In the main air line, upstream from all other
air line accessories, install a second bleed-type master
air valve to shut off all air to the system and to isolate
the accessories for servicing.
Fluid Line
Connect a fluid line to the fluid outlet fitting (28). Con-
nect a suitable dispensing valve to the free end of the
line.
To help reduce the risk of serious injury when adjust-
ing or repairing the pump, including skin injection,
splashing fluid, and moving parts, the pump includes
two required safety devices: the bleed-type master air
valve (8) and the pump bleeder valve (25).

Operation

Operation
Pressure Relief Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever
you see this symbol.
1. Lock the sprayer, dispenser, or gun/valve trigger of
the equipment that is being used with this extruder.
2. Disconnect the main air line from the machine.
3. Set the ram director valve to the down position. The
ram slowly drops.
4. Quickly move the ram director valve up and down to
bleed air from the ram cylinder.
5. Unlock the dispensing device trigger.
6. Hold a metal part of the gun/valve firmly to the side
of a grounded pail and trigger the dispensing device
to relieve pressure.
7. Lock the dispensing device trigger.
8. Open the pump bleeder valve.
9. Leave the pump bleeder valve open until you are
ready to dispense again.
If you suspect that the spray tip/nozzle or hose is com-
pletely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully
relieved, proceed as follows:
10. Very slowly open the pump bleeder valve, having a
container ready to catch the drainage.
11. Very slowly loosen the hose end coupling to relieve
pressure gradually; then loosen it completely.
12. Clear the tip/nozzle or hose.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is
manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from
pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, splashing
fluid, and moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure when you stop dispensing and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.

Flush the System
NOTE: The pump is tested with lightweight oil, which is
left in to protect the pump parts. If the fluid you are using
might be contaminated by the oil, flush it out with a com-
patible solvent before using the pump.
Flush with a fluid that is compatible with the fluid you are
pumping and with the wetted parts in your system.
Check with your fluid manufacturer or supplier for rec-
ommended fluids and flushing frequency. Always flush
the pump before fluid dries on the displacement rod.
1. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 9.
2. Remove the tip/nozzle from the dispensing device
you are using with the pump.
3. Hold a metal part of the dispensing device firmly to
the side of a grounded metal pail.
4. Start the pump. See Start and Adjust the Pump on
page 11. Always use the lowest possible fluid pres-
sure when flushing.
5. Trigger the dispensing device.
6. Flush the system until clear solvent flows from the
dispenser.
7. Relieve the pressure. See page 9.
Start and Adjust the Ram
NOTE: Reference numbers and letters in parentheses
in the text refer to the callouts in FIG. 1 on page 6 and
the parts drawings. Refer to those for operation.
1. Close all air regulators and bleed-type air valves.
2. Open the air valve in the main air line and set the
ram air regulator (27B) to 28 psi (200 kPa, 2 bar).
Set the ram director valve switch (36) to the up posi-
tion and let the ram rise to its full height. To change
the speed at which the ram raises and lowers,
adjust the air regulator to increase or decrease the
air volume.
3. Check that the fluid can is not dented or out of
shape, which will damage the wiper plate and cause
leakage around the wiper. Cut off the top of the fluid
can with the can opener, or remove the bottom of
the can. Be sure that the edge is free of burrs, which
will damage the wiper plate. If necessary, bend the
edge back with pliers so the wiper plate will enter
the can easily. Lubricate the wiper ring (305) to help
the plate enter the can easily.
4. Set a can of fluid on the ram base, centering it under
the wiper plate (P).
To avoid fire and explosion, always ground equipment
and waste container. To avoid static sparking and
injury from splashing, always flush at the lowest pos-
sible pressure.
NOTICE
Never leave water or water-based fluid in a carbon
steel pump overnight. If you are pumping
water-based fluid, flush with water first, then with a
rust inhibitor, such as mineral spirits. Relieve pres-
sure, but leave rust inhibitor in the pump to protect
parts from corrosion.
To reduce the risk of serious injury and damage to
equipment, do not shut off the air supply to the ram
when the ram is raised. Doing so will cause the pump
to fall uncontrolled to the bottom. Also, as the ram is
raised and lowered, the wiper plate, ram tubes, and
pump mounting bracket move. To reduce the risk of
pinching or amputation of fingers, keep your hands
away from the wiper plate, lip of the fluid can, pump
bracket, ram tubes, and air motor coupling cavity while
the pump is operating.
If the can has a welded seam, position it with the seam
facing the rear of the pump to avoid injury due to splat-
tering fluid if the can leaks at the seam.
