What to do if my Graco Paint Sprayer motor does not run?
- A
  andersenstevenSep 12, 2025
  If the power switch is on, the sprayer is plugged in, but the Graco Paint Sprayer motor isn't running and the pump isn't cycling, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the pressure isn't set to zero by turning the pressure control knob clockwise to increase the pressure setting. Another possibility is that the electric outlet isn't providing power; try a different outlet or test the outlet with a working device. Damaged extension or sprayer power cords can also be the culprit, so inspect and replace them if necessary. Lastly, paint or water may be frozen or hardened in the pump. If frozen, thaw it completely before use. If hardened, take the sprayer to a Graco/MAGNUM authorized service center for potential pump packings, valves, drivetrain, or pressure switch replacement.

Why is my Graco Magnum X5 Paint Sprayer motor overheating?
- G
  grahamscottSep 5, 2025
  If your Graco Paint Sprayer motor is hot and runs intermittently, clear any clogged vent holes in the shroud. Ensure the sprayer isn't covered. If you're using an extension cord, it should be of the correct gauge and length. Also, if using an electrical generator, make sure it has a proper voltage regulator and provides 220-240 VAC 50/60 Hz. Decrease the pressure setting or increase the tip size and move the sprayer to a cooler location.
