Questions and Answers

Overview

The Graco Ultra Max II 695/795/1095, Mark V, and Mark X series are professional-grade airless paint sprayers designed for efficient and high-quality application of various coatings. These devices are primarily used for painting tasks, offering a fast and consistent method for applying paints, lacquers, enamels, urethanes, acrylics, emulsions, latex, block fillers, and intumescents. The core function of these sprayers is to atomize paint without the use of compressed air, instead relying on high pressure to force paint through a small tip, creating a fine, even spray pattern. This method allows for faster coverage, reduced overspray compared to traditional methods, and a smoother finish.

Function Description:

The Graco Ultra Max II and Mark series sprayers operate by drawing paint from a container through a siphon tube and then pressurizing it using an internal pump. The pressurized paint is then delivered through a high-pressure hose to a spray gun. The gun, equipped with a specialized tip and guard, releases the paint in a controlled fan pattern. The user can adjust the pressure to suit different types of coatings and desired finishes. The system is designed to handle a wide range of viscosities, from thin lacquers to thick block fillers, by selecting the appropriate spray tip and adjusting the pressure settings. The device includes a prime valve that allows the user to switch between priming the pump with water or cleaning fluid and spraying paint. This valve is crucial for both initial setup and post-use cleaning. A pressure control knob enables precise adjustment of the spraying pressure, which is vital for achieving an optimal spray pattern without heavy edges or excessive overspray. The power switch controls the on/off state of the pump, and a safety lever on the gun prevents accidental triggering.

Usage Features:

The Graco Ultra Max II and Mark series sprayers are designed for user-friendly operation, with clear steps for setup, spraying, and shutdown.

Setup:

  1. Hose and Gun Connection: The process begins by connecting the high-pressure hose to both the sprayer and the spray gun, ensuring all connections are tightened with a wrench to prevent leaks.
  2. Tip and Guard Installation: The spray tip and guard are then screwed onto the gun. The tip's arrow-shaped handle should point forward for spraying. The reversible design of the tip allows for quick clearing of clogs without disassembly.
  3. Throat Packing Nut Lubrication: To prevent premature wear, the throat packing nut is filled with TSL™ (Throat Seal Liquid).
  4. Power and Pressure Settings: Before plugging in the electrical cord, the power switch must be set to OFF, and the pressure control knob turned to its lowest setting. The electrical cord is then plugged into a grounded outlet.
  5. Priming with Water: The prime valve is set to the "Prime" position (down), and the siphon tube is placed in a pail partially filled with water. With the gun's safety lever OFF, the power switch is turned ON, and the pressure is gradually increased until water runs out of the prime tube. This flushes air from the system. After 15 seconds, the pressure is decreased until the sprayer stops, and the prime valve is turned to the "Spray" position (horizontal).
  6. Gun Priming: The gun is aimed at the inside wall of the water pail, and the trigger is squeezed. Pressure is increased until water sprays from the gun. The gun is kept triggered for one minute to ensure thorough priming, then the trigger is released.
  7. Paint Preparation: The prime valve is returned to the "Prime" position (down), and the siphon tube is moved from the water pail to the paint pail, while the drain tube remains in the water pail. The gun is again aimed at the water pail, and the trigger is squeezed. Pressure is increased until paint emerges from the gun, at which point the trigger is released, and the safety lever is turned ON. The drain tube is then transferred to the paint pail.

Spraying:

  1. Safety and Positioning: Before spraying, the gun's safety lever is turned OFF. The gun should be held approximately 30 cm from the surface, and the user should begin moving the gun before triggering to ensure an even start.
  2. Spray Pattern and Pressure: The goal is to achieve an evenly distributed spray pattern without heavy edges. Pressure should be adjusted just high enough to achieve this. For thinner materials, a smaller tip size is recommended, while thicker materials may require a larger tip. If pressure adjustments alone cannot achieve an even pattern, changing the tip size is advised.

Maintenance Features:

Proper maintenance is crucial for the longevity and performance of the Graco Ultra Max II and Mark series sprayers. The guide emphasizes thorough cleaning after each use.

Shutdown and Cleanup:

  1. Pressure Relief: The power switch is turned OFF, and the gun is triggered to relieve any remaining pressure in the system.
  2. Filter Removal: The prime valve is set to the "Prime" position (down). The gun filter assembly, manifold filter, and spacer are removed, and the gun is reassembled without the filter. The inter screen is unscrewed from the siphon tube.
  3. Component Cleaning: The gun filter, inlet screen, tip, guard, and manifold filter are cleaned with water and a brush.
  4. System Flushing: The drain tube and siphon tube are placed in a pail of water. The pressure control knob is set to its lowest setting, the power switch is turned ON, and pressure is increased until the sprayer starts. The sprayer is allowed to run and flush itself for two minutes.
  5. Gun Flushing: With the gun triggered into the water pail, the prime valve is turned to the "Spray" position (horizontal). The gun is kept triggered for one minute until the water coming out is clean.
  6. Final Shutdown: The power switch is turned OFF, the pressure control knob is set to its lowest setting, and the prime valve is turned to the "Prime" position (down).
  7. Pump Armor Application: The drain tube is placed in a waste pail, and the siphon tube is placed in a container of Pump Armor™. The power switch is turned ON, and pressure is increased until the sprayer starts. As soon as Pump Armor™ emerges from the drain tube, the power switch is turned OFF.
  8. Reassembly and Lubrication: The inlet screen is screwed back onto the siphon tube, and the manifold filter, spacer, and gun filter are reassembled with the gun, tip, and guard. The outside of the sprayer, hose, and gun are wiped clean with a rag soaked in water or mineral spirits. Finally, the throat packing nut is filled with TSL™.

AutoClean 2™ Guide (for specific models):

Some models feature an AutoClean 2™ system for automated cleaning.

  1. Initial Preparation: The suction and drain tubes are removed from the paint, the drain tube is placed in a waste pail, and the suction tube is wiped clean. The suction tube is then placed in the appropriate cleaning fluid.
  2. Paint Recovery: The drain valve is closed, and the power is switched ON. To save paint from the hose and pump, the gun is triggered into the paint pail, and pressure is increased. When cleaning fluid appears, the gun trigger is released.
  3. Pressure Adjustment: The pressure is turned all the way down, and the drain valve is opened.
  4. AutoClean Connection: The gun is placed in the AutoClean connector, and the connector is screwed onto the gun. The open end of the connector slides over the back of the handle.
  5. Trigger Lock: The trigger lock clip is rotated 90° to lock the trigger open.
  6. Automated Cleaning Cycle: The display button is pressed until a timer appears, and the pressure control knob is turned to its highest setting.
  7. Final Flushing: Once finished, the trigger clip is removed from the gun handle. The connector is unscrewed from the gun, and the gun is removed from the connector. The drain valve is closed. With clean fluid, the gun is briefly triggered into a waste pail several times to clear any debris from the front. The tip and guard are installed, and the gun is briefly triggered into the waste pail to clean the tip, reversing the tip if necessary.

These comprehensive instructions ensure that the Graco Ultra Max II and Mark series sprayers provide reliable performance and a long service life when properly used and maintained.
