  4. Remove the cross-head screw from the prime / pump spray nub and remove the nub
  5. Remove the seven cross-head screws from the sprayer enclosure and remove the enclosure cover
  6. Carefully remove the pump assembly from the enclosure (on the Graco UltraMax you will have to remove the static dissipation wire first – and save the screw!)
  7. Place the new pump assembly into the Smart Control housing – DO NOT REMOVE THE YELLOW LOCKING DEVICE! (on Graco UltraMax models you will have to reinstall the static dissipation wire)
