Installation
General Information
D The Typical Installations in Fig. 2 are only guides
for selecting and installing system components.
Contact your Graco distributor for assistance in
planning a system to suit your needs.
D Always use Genuine Graco Parts and Accessories.
D Use a compatible, liquid thread sealant on all male
threads. Tighten all connections firmly to avoid air
or fluid leaks.
Tightening Th readed F asten ers Before
First Use
Before using the pump for the first time, check and
retorque all external fasteners. See Torque Se-
quence, page 20. After the first day of operation,
retorque the fasteners. Although pump use varies, a
general guideline is to retorque fasteners every two
months.
Toxic Fluid Hazard
Read Toxic Fluid Hazard
on page 3.
Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with the
equipment wetted parts. Refer to the Technical Data
section of all equipment manuals. Read the fluid and
solvent manufacturer’s warnings.

Safe Operating Temperatures
Minimum: 40_ F(4_ C)
Maximum: 225_ F (107_ C)
These temperatures are based upon mechanical stress
only and may be significantly altered by pumping certain
chemicals. Consult engineering guides for chemical com-
patibilities and temperature limits, or contact your Graco
distributor.
Mountings
D These pumps can be used in a variety of installa-
tions. Be sure the mounting surface can support
the weight of the pump, hoses, and accessories, as
well as the stress caused during operation.
D Fig. 2 shows some installation examples. On all
installations, mount the pump using screws and
nuts.
Pumping High-Density Fluids
High density fluids may prevent the lighter non-metallic
check valve balls from seating properly, which reduces
pump performance significantly. Stainless steel balls
should be used for such applications.
