Installation

Prepare the Site

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.

Bring a compressed air supply line from the air com- pressor to the pump location. Be sure all air hoses are properly sized and pressure-rated for your system. Use only electrically conductive hoses. The air hose should have a 3/4 npsm(m) thread. Before installing any air line components, blow out the air lines to remove scale and other debris. Use pipe compound or tape sparingly and only on male threads.

Install a bleed-type shutoff valve in the air line upstream from all other air line components, to isolate them for servicing.

Kit Components (page 7)

Use the bleed-type master air valve (3) to relieve air trapped between it and the pump when the valve is closed. This helps reduce the risk of serious injury, including fluid injection and splashing of fluid in the eyes or on the skin, and injury from moving parts if you are adjusting or repairing the pump.

Bleed-Type Master Air Valve (3)

Relieve air trapped between it and the air motor when the valve is closed. Be sure the bleed valve is easily accessible from the pump, and is located downstream from the air filter/regulator (1). FIG. 2

Air Filter/Regulator (1)

Controls pump speed and outlet pressure by adjusting the air pressure to the pump. It also removes harmful dirt and moisture from the compressed air supply. Locate the regulator as close as possible to the equip- ment it serves, but upstream from the bleed-type mas- ter air valve (3). Install the regulator in the air line so the air flow is in the direction of the arrow stamped on the body. FIG. 2.

Using the Pipe Port Inserts

To open the pipe port insert (A), remove the insert pin

(S)and pull insert up in direction away from pin hole. Install new insert and reinsert pin.
