WARNING
INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the gun, leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extremely
serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin can also
cause serious injury.
D Fluid injected into the skin is a serious injury. The injury may look like just a cut, but it is a serious
injury. Get immediate medical attention.
D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.
D Always have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the gun when spraying.
D Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.
D Check the gun diffuser operation weekly. Refer to the gun manual.
D Be sure the gun trigger safety operates before spraying.
D Lock the gun trigger safety when you stop spraying.
D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 if the spray tip clogs and before cleaning,
checking or servicing the equipment.
D Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do not
repair high pressure couplings; you must replace the entire hose.
MOVING PARTS HAZARD
Moving parts can pinch or amputate your fingers.
D Keep clear of all moving parts when starting or operating the pump.
D Before checking or servicing the equipment, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 to
prevent the equipment from starting unexpectedly.

Installation
6. All solvent pails used when flushing, according to
Grounding
local code. Use only metal pails, which are con-
ductive. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive
surface, such as paper or cardboard, which
interrupts the grounding continuity.
Proper grounding is an essential part of maintaining a
safe system.
7. To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure, always hold a metal part of the
gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail,
then trigger the gun.
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump.
Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding
instructions for your area and type of equipment. Be
sure to ground all of this equipment:
Installation (See Fig. 1)
1. Pump: use a ground wire and clamp as instructed
For assistance in setting up a plural component sys-
tem, contact your Graco distributor. This will help as-
sure that you select the proper type and size equip-
ment for your job.
in your pump instruction manual.
2. Fluid hoses: Use only grounded hoses with a max-
imum of 500 feet (150 m) combined hose length to
ensure grounding continuity.
Use the spacer (40), screws (37), nuts (38) and lock-
washers (39) provided to mount the manifold.
3. Spray gun, manifold, or dispensing valve: obtain
grounding through connection to a properly
grounded connection to a properly grounded fluid
hose and sprayer.
Connect the supply lines from your pump to the man-
ifold inlets (R & Q).
Connect your static mixer or hose to the material outlet
(S). Model 215626 has a 1/2 npt(m) outlet, and model
215625 has a 1/4 npt(m) outlet. Model 241692

(9†) See page 11.
CAUTION
1. Relieve the Pressure.
Be sure to tighten the six socket screws (2) evenly.
The upper four screws, which surround the needle
valve assembly (12), are critical in ensuring that the
needle seats properly. If the bottom two screws are
over-tightened, they will throw off the alignment.
2. Remove the twelve socket-head screws (2) to
separate the two valve housings (8) from the
manifold housing (7). Remove all parts from the
housings.
3. Clean all parts thoroughly in a compatible solvent.
Use a soft bristle brush to clean the manifold
passageways.
10. Repeat the procedure from step 9 on the other
valve housing (8).
Ball Valve Repair (See Page 10.)
4. Install the two check valve assemblies (9†) and
valve seats (6†) in the manifold housing (7).
Note: Repair Kit 217560 is available for the ball valves.
Parts included in the kit are indicated with an asterisk,
for example (18*). See page 11.
5. Install the needle valve (12), back-up ring (4**),
and seal (3†) in each of the valve housings (8).
6. Install six socket-head screws (2) through one
valve housing (8) and into the manifold housing
(7), so the distance between the housings is
0.060 in. (1.5 mm).
When reassembling a ball valve (13 or 24), install the
ball (18* or 29*) so that the round hole aligns with the
main passageway of the valve body and the square
hole aligns with the stem (21 or 32) passageway.
