Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Some solutions require disassembling the dispense valve or orbital dispenser. Always relieve system pressure before performing these procedures.
Table 3 provides troubleshooting information. For other troubleshooting situations, call your Graco distributor.
To reduce the risk of serious injury whenever you are instructed to relieve pressure, always follow the Pres- sure Relief Procedure (see manual 309043).
To reduce the risk of serious injury whenever you are instructed to remove, change, check, clean, or han- dle the nozzle in any manner, always disconnect the motor control cable from the control assembly (see FIG. 8 on page 17), or place the control assembly in the MANUAL mode of operation using the CON- TROL SELECT switch. (See FIG. 12 on page 22.)
