Installation

Grounding

The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking and electric shock. Electric or static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode.

Improper grounding can cause electric shock. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.

Pump: Use a ground wire and clamp as shown in FIG. 1.

Fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive hoses.

Air compressor: Follow manufacturer’s recommenda- tions.

Fluid supply container: Follow the 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.

To ground the pump: remove the ground screw (Z) and insert through the eye of the ring terminal at end of the ground wire (Y). Fasten the ground screw back onto the pump and tighten securely. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true earth ground. See Fig. To order a ground wire clamp, order Part. No. 222011.
