Setup
1.
Prepare the adhesive.
This is probably the most important step
toward trouble-free spraying!
Prepare the adhesive according to the manufactur-
er’s recommendations. Remove any skin that may
have formed on the top of the coating. If neces-
sary, thin the coating.
2.
Install a spray tip and the tip guard
on the spray
gun. Place the tip washer between the gun outlet and
the extension tube.
3.
Screw the gun tightly on the hose.
Connect the
other end of the hose to the 1/4 npsm(m) outlet nipple
of the sprayer.
4.
Check the hydraulic oil level.
Unscrew the fill cap
(5). The oil should be 1 inch (25 mm) from the top of
the plate. If it is not, fill as necessary with lightweight
hydraulic oil; use only Graco Hydraulic Oil, Part No.
218–797. Install the fill cap. See Fig. 1.
5.
Check the electrical service.
It must be 120 VAC,
60 Hz, 15 Amp (minimum). Be sure the electrical out-
let is properly grounded.
You can use up to 100 foot (30 m) of 3 wire, 14
gauge (minimum) extension cord. Longer exten-
sion cords may affect the sprayer performance.
Use more spray hose, not longer extension cords.
Do not remove the third (grounding) prong of the
plug, and do not use an adapter.
6.
Plug in the sprayer .
First be sure the ON/OFF
switch (11) is OFF and the pressure control (4) is
turned fully
counterclockwise
. Plug the sprayer into
a grounded outlet that is at least 20 foot (6 m) away
from the spray area to reduce the chance of a spark
igniting spray vapors or dust particles.
