  If your Graco Paint Sprayer's motor is running hot and intermittently, it could be due to: * Operating the sprayer at high pressure with small tips, leading to low motor RPM and excessive heat buildup. Decrease the pressure setting or increase the tip size. * High ambient temperature. Ensure the sprayer is in an area no warmer than 90°F and not in direct sunlight. Move the sprayer to a shaded, cooler area if possible.

Replace the tip after relieving pressure. * A clogged filter can restrict flow. Relieve pressure and clean the filter. * Loose suction hose connections can also be a culprit. Tighten any loose connections. * An incorrectly sized or overly long extension cord can reduce performance. Replace it with a grounded extension cord that is at least 12 gauge wire and no longer than 300 ft. * Check the electrical supply to ensure it meets the voltage requirements (210–255 Vac for 220–240 Vac models or 85–130 Vac for 100–120 Vac models).
