SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the 

event that injection occurs, 

get immediate surgical treatment.

Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.

Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For example, do not try to stop 

leaks with any part of the body.

Always use the spray tip guard. Do not spray without spray tip guard in place.

Use Graco spray tips.

Use caution when cleaning and changing spray tips. In the case where the spray tip clogs 

while spraying, follow the 

Pressure Relief Procedure

 for turning off the unit and relieving 

the pressure before removing the spray tip to clean.

Do not leave the equipment energized or under pressure while unattended. Remove 

battery and follow the 

Pressure Relief Procedure

 when the equipment is unattended or 

not in use, and before servicing, cleaning, or removing parts.

Check parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged parts.

This system is capable of producing 2000 psi (138 bar, 14 MPa). Use Graco replacement 

parts or accessories that are rated a minimum of 2000 psi (138 bar, 14 MPa).

Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.

Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be thoroughly familiar with the 

controls.
