Graco LineLazer GM 3500 Manuel D'instructions page 61

1. Read and follow the warnings on pages 4–6 be-
fore installing or operating this sprayer.
2. Unpack the LineLazer Carefully raise the handle (19)
to a vertical position. Four screws (39) and locknuts
(40) are packed in a bag. Install the two rear screws
(39A) and finger tighten the nuts (40A). Install one
screw (39B) and nut (40B) on each side of the han-
dle. Firmly tighten all four nuts. See Fig. 3.
CAUTION
When raising the cart handle (19), be sure no cables
are caught on the frame or become kinked.
3. To install a second gun and hose, see page 11.
4. Fill the packing nut/wet–cup (216) 1/3 full with
Graco Throat Seal Liquid (TSL), supplied, and
keep it filled, to help extend the pump life. See
Fig. 4.
5. Check the engine oil level. Refer to the Honda
engine manual, supplied. This is a summary of the
information: Remove one of the oil fill plugs (A);
the oil should be almost overflowing. See Fig. 4.
Add oil as necessary. Also read the Maintenance
section on page 23.
Recommended engine oil: Use a high–quality, deter-
gent oil, SAE 10W–40, classified "FOR SERVICE
SE or SF".
6. Ground the sprayer. Proper grounding is essential to
maintaining an electrically safe system. Also read
and follow FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARD on page
6.
WARNING
Ground the sprayer whenever it is used indoors,
either as a moving line striper or as a stationary
sprayer. Floors in most factories are coated, which
causes them to be poor electrical conductors. This
increases the risk of hazardous static electric
discharge, which can result in serious injury, fire, or
explosion and property damage.
Whenever you flush: connect the ground clamp
(159) to a true earth ground.
Using as an outdoor striper: Be sure the static
chain attached to the bottom of the cart drags on the
ground to help dissipate static electricity. Ground the
sprayer to a true earth ground if specified by your
local electrical code.
Indoor spraying: Ground the sprayer whenever the
sprayer is used indoors. The ground wire supplied
with the sprayer is not long enough to allow much
operator movement. Therefore, the operator must
provide a longer ground wire or provide some other
method of effective electrical grounding as specified
by your local electrical code.
Setup
7. Provide adequate ventilation when spraying indoors.
If the LineLazer is used indoors, you must vent the
exhaust to the outdoors or provide adequate ven-
tilation as specified by you local code. This is to
reduce the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
8. Fill the gas tank. See Fueling on page 10.
9. Flush the pump to remove the lightweight oil which
was left in the pump to protect it from rust. Follow the
Flushing on page 12.
10. Prepare the paint according to the manufacturer's
recommendations. Remove any skin that may have
formed. Stir the paint to mix pigments.
Strain the paint through a fine nylon mesh bag (avail-
able at most paint dealers) to remove particles that
could clog the filter or spray tip. This is an important
step toward trouble–free spraying.
