EXPLOSION RISK FROM HALOGENATED
HYDROCARBON SOLVENTS
Never use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents in this
machine.
Contact with aluminum parts may cause an
explosion.
Some of the most common of these solvents
are: Carbontetrachloride, Chlorobenzene,
Dichloroethane, Dichloroethyl Ether,
Ethylbromide, Ethylchloride, & Tethrachloethane.
PREVENT STATIC SPARKING FIRE/
EXPLOSIONS
Vapors created when spraying can be ignited by
sparks.
To reduce the risk of fire, always locate the sprayer
at least 20 feet (6 m.) away from spray area. Do
not plug in or unplug any electrical cords in the
spray area. Doing so can cause sparks which can
ignite any vapors still in the air. Follow the coating
& solvent manufacturers safety warnings and
precautions.
MEDICAL ALERT -
A
irless Spray Injection
Injuries
If any fluid appears to penetrate your skin,
GET EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE AT
