Setup

1.Prepare the paint according to the manufactur- er's recommendations.

This is probably the most important step

toward trouble-free spraying!

Remove any skin that may have formed on the top of the paint. If necessary, thin the paint. Finally, strain the paint through a fine nylon mesh bag (available at most paint dealers) to remove par- ticles that could clog the spray tip.

2.

Install a spray tip and RAC IV tip guard on the

 

spray gun as instructed in manual 307±848.

3.

Connect the hose and gun. Connect the other end

 

of the hose to 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 the oil is low, fill as necessary with light-

 

weight hydraulic oil; use only Graco Hydraulic Oil,

 

Part No. 218±797. Install the fill cap. See Fig. 1.

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.

5. Check the electrical service which must be 120V,

60 HzAc, 15 Amp (minimum). Be sure the electrical

outlet 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.
