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.
Spray gun: ground through connection to a properly
grounded fluid hose and pump.
Fluid supply container: follow local code.
Object being sprayed: follow local code.
Solvent pails used when flushing: follow local code.
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded
surface. Do not place the pail on a non-conductive sur-
face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts
grounding continuity.
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.
The sprayer cord includes a grounding wire with an
appropriate grounding contact.

needed wastes material, causes early tip wear, and
shortens sprayer life.
NOTE: Check the spray pattern. The tip size and angle
determines the pattern width and flow rate.
Shutdown
1. Relieve Pressure, page 10.
2. Clean the tip and gun as recommended in the sepa-
rate Gun Manual supplied with the gun.
3. If spraying water-based material or a material that
could harden in the sprayer overnight, flush the
sprayer after use. See Flushing, page 11.
Storage
Short Term
1. Flush sprayer with compatible solvent before stor-
ing, then fill the pump and hoses with an oil based
solvent such as mineral spirits.
• For oil base paint: flush with mineral spirits
• For water-base paint: flush with water, then min-
eral spirits and leave the pump, hose and gun
filled with mineral spirits.
Long Term
For longer storage, use Graco Pump Armor or mineral
spirits. Shut off sprayer, Relieve Pressure, page 10,
and make sure prime valve is left open.
Start Up After Storage
Before using water-base paint, flush sprayer with soapy
water and then a clean water flush. When using oil-base
paint, flush out the mineral spirits with the material to be
sprayed.
NOTE: Always store unit indoors.
To reduce the risk of injection, never hold your hand,
body, fingers or hand in a rag in front of the spray tip
when cleaning or checking for a cleared tip. Always
point the gun toward the ground or into a waste con-
tainer when checking to see if the tip is cleared or
when using a self cleaning tip.

Maintenance
Daily Maintenance
1. Keep the displacement pump packing nut/wet cup
lubricated with Throat Seal Oil (TSO) or Packing
Seal Fluid at all times. The oil or fluid help protect
the rod and packings.
2. Inspect the packing nut daily. If seepage of paint
into the packing nut and/or movement of the piston
upward is found (while not spraying), the packing
nut should be tightened just enough to stop leakage
(torque is 24 in-lbs). Over tightening will damage the
packings and reduce the packing life.
Electric Motor Maintenance
Lubrication
The motor is supplied with pre-lubricated ball bearings,
lubricated for the life of the bearing.
Motor Brushes
Motor brushes need periodic inspection and replace-
ment as wear indicates. Standard brushes have an ini-
tial length of 1” and should be replaced when they are
worn to a length of 1/2”. Brush wear is greatly influenced
by individual application and it is recommended that
brush wear be checked at early intervals of operation in
order to determine future required inspection.
To change the brushes:
1. Disconnect power from the unit.
2. Remove the cover over the motor, if applicable.
3. Open the two covers at the rear of the motor.
4. Disconnect the brush wire.
5. Pull out the wire.
6. Push the brush retainer clip in and withdraw.
7. Remove the worn brushes.
8. Install new brushes in the reverse order.
9. To increase brush life, new brushes (Part # 331780)
need to have a run in period. After changing
brushes, set the machine for spraying. With a
bucket of Pump Conditioner and water, a 50’ 1/4”
airless hose, airless gun and tip on unit, open the
prime valve and power on. The pump will now
prime. With pump running in the prime mode, turn
the pressure control knob to high pressure. (The
pump has to cycle fast with no pressure in the
pump). Run the pump for 20 minutes and the
brushes will be run in.
