The fluid supply system’s main line pressures often exceed the pressure range of the gauge supplied
with regulators 214706, 26C160, and 24A082. Exposing this gauge to excessive pressure can damage
the gauge, causing inaccurate readings and the needle will not return to zero.
This damage is not covered by the Graco warranty.

WARNING
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can splash fluid in the eyes or on the skin
and cause serious injury.
D Do not stop or deflect fluid leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 whenever you: are instructed to relieve the
pressure; stop spraying; clean, check, or service the equipment; and install or clean the fluid
nozzle.
D Tighten all the fluid connections before operating the equipment.
D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn, damaged, or loose parts immediately.
Permanently coupled hoses cannot be repaired; replace the entire hose.
