The conductive ring (9) is a conductive metal contact ring, not a sealing o-ring. To reduce the risk of fire, explosion, or electric shock:

Do not remove the conductive ring except to replace it.

Never operate the gun without the conductive ring in place.

Do not replace the conductive ring with anything but a genuine Graco part.
