What to do if metering pumps do not run when Run Mode is selected and the blue LED is illuminated on my Graco XM PFP?
- B
  Brenda MillerDec 1, 2025
  If the metering pumps on your Graco Paint Sprayer fail to run when Run Mode is selected and the blue LED is lit, consider the following: * Air pressure to metering pumps is too low. Increase the pressure to 50 psi (0.35 MPa, 3.5 bar) or greater. * Air pressure to metering valves is too low. Check the air regulator behind the main air panel; it should be at 80-85 psi (0.55-0.59 MPa, 5.5-5.9 bar). * Circulation valves or mix manifold ball valves are not open. Open the ball valves. * Air pilot lines are obstructed. Check the pilot lines for kinks or pinches. * Solenoid valve stuck. Actuate solenoid manually, if it does not operate, replace solenoid. * Air pilot valve(s) to motor stuck. Replace valve(s). * Metering valve(s) not opening. Service or replace valve(s). * Air motor...

Why does my Graco XM PFP Paint Sprayer have a poor spray pattern?
- L
  ljonesAug 25, 2025
  A poor spray pattern in your Graco Paint Sprayer can be caused by: * Fluid pressure being too low. Increase the metering pump pressure. * Fluid temperature being too low. Increase the fluid temperature. * Spray tip being dirty or worn. Relieve pressure, then clean or replace the tip, following the gun manual instructions. * Mix manifold, mixer, swivel, gun, or hoses partially plugged or too restrictive. Inspect parts for cured material. Clean or replace, or use larger hoses and mixer.

How to troubleshoot little or no resin output in Graco Industrial Equipment?
- D
  diane52Sep 14, 2025
  If your Graco Industrial Equipment has little to no resin output, the fluid inlet may be plugged, so clean the inlet and remove any obstruction. Another possibility is that the fluid container is empty, so refill it.

What to do if Pump Test completes without error, but A or B component has more than 750cc of fluid in beaker on my Graco XM PFP Paint Sprayer?
- N
  Nicole GardnerSep 6, 2025
  If the Pump Test completes without error, but either the A or B component has more than 750cc of fluid in the beaker for your Graco Paint Sprayer: * Repeat Pump Test with fresh fluid, because air is trapped in fluid due to excessive agitation, circulation, and heat. Fluid is measured by volume when it is compressed under pressure.

What to do if I receive a ratio alarm after starting in spray mode while using a remote mix manifold on my Graco Paint Sprayer?
- C
  Catherine DillonSep 4, 2025
  If you receive a ratio alarm after starting in spray mode while using a remote mix manifold on your Graco Paint Sprayer, it may be because A and B hoses do not fill to the correct pressure ratio simultaneously, increasing spray time to balance pressure. Pressurize outlet hoses in manual A/B pump mode, then start spray mode.
