Installation
Installation of your pump involves potentially
hazardous procedures. Only trained and qualified
personnel who have read and who understand
the information in this manual should install this
equipment.
Receiving and Handling
Upon receipt of your pump:
• Carefully inspect the pump to verify that no damage
occurred during transit. Check the packing list to
ensure that all parts and accessories are present.
NOTE: If you find any damage or shortage,
immediately notify your Graco distributor.
• Refer to the pump identification plate (ID) for the
pump part number and series level.
• Leave the pump assembly crated, horizontal, and
stored in a warm, dry location until you are ready
to install it. To store the pump more than 30 days,
see Storage, page 19.

Moving the Pump
The pump is heavy. Handle it carefully. Careless
handling can result in equipment damage and
injury to personnel.
After you receive and inspect your pump, transfer it
to the assembly location or storage area.
NOTE: To prevent hose damage if storing the pump
more than 30 days, see Storage, page 19.
Use the proper forklift truck for lifting equipment
on pallets or in crates. The lift forks should extend
under the equipment and completely support the
unit. When necessary to lift by crane, use the vertical
points of the equipment or the crating for pickup so
the equipment remains level. Use long lift cables,
chains, or straps, as required, to evenly support
the equipment. In addition, use a spreader bar, if
necessary, to ensure a vertical pull at all lift points.
Short cables or chains can create a cross shear that
can damage the equipment.
NOTICE
If your pump is supplied with a gear motor, lift only
with straps located under the gear motor and under
the front of the pump.
