Installation

Grounding

The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces the risk of static and electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electrical current due to static build up or in the event of a short circuit.

Pump: Use a ground screw (Z) and lockwasher on the motor to attach ground wire 244524 (Y). Tighten the screw securely. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true earth ground. See FIG. 1.

Installation

Object being sprayed: follow local code.

Solvent pails used when flushing: follow local code. Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive sur- face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts grounding continuity.

To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.

Air and fluid hoses: use only electrically conductive hoses with a maximum of 500 ft. (150 m) combined hose length to ensure grounding continuity. Check the electrical resistance of hoses. If total resistance to ground exceeds 29 megohms, replace hose immedi- ately.

Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s recommenda- tions.

Hydraulic power supply: follow manufacturer’s recom- mendations.

Surge tank: use a ground wire and clamp.

Spray gun: ground through a connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

Fluid supply container: follow local code.
