ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
This equipment must be grounded. Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the system can cause electric shock.
•

•
Use only grounded electrical outlets.
•
Use only 3-wire extension cords.
•
Ensure ground prongs are intact on power and extension cords.
•
Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from dispensing device, hose leaks or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may look
like just a cut, but it is a serious injury than can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical treatment.
•
Engage trigger lock when not dispensing.
•
Do not point dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
•
Do not put your hand over the fluid outlet.
•

Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
•
Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and
explosion:
•
Do not dispense flammable or combustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition such as
cigarettes, motors, and electrical equipment.
•
Material or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity
creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of material or solvent fumes. All parts of the system,
including the pump, hose assembly, dispenser, and objects in and around the work area shall be properly
grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use Graco® conductive or grounded high-pressure
airless material hoses.
•
Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge.
•
Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension cords. Do not use a 3-to-2 adapter.
•
Do not use a material or a solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.
•
Keep work area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area. Keep pump
assembly in a well ventilated area.
•
Do not smoke in the work area.
•
Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the work area.
•
Keep area clean and free of material or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.
•
Know the contents of the materials and solvents being dispensed. Read all Material Safety Data Sheets
(MSDS) and container labels provided with the materials and solvents. Follow the materials and solvents
manufacturer’s safety instructions.
•
Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.
•
Drywall feed and pump generates sparks. When flammable liquid is used in or near the drywall feed pump
or for flushing or cleaning, keep unit at least 20 feet (6 m) away from explosive vapors.
