NOTICE

 

 

 

 

Tipping the spray gun causes the spray gun to clog. Dried spray material also clogs the pressure delivery 
tube and fittings. The spray gun does not function when clogging occurs. 

 

When not in use, be sure to disconnect the hose and place the spray gun into the Handi-Hold™ Docking 
Station on the turbine to avoid tipping. 

 

 

Improper installation of the ground plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If repair or 
replacement of the plug or cord is necessary, do not connect the ground wire to either flat blade 
terminal. The wire with green insulation (with or without a yellow stripe) is the

 

grounding wire.

 

 

1. For any question regarding proper installation of the ground plug, consult a qualified (licensed 

or certified) electrician.

 

 

2. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug does not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet 

installed by a qualified electrician.

 

 

3. This product is for use on a nominal 110-volt circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like 

the plug in Figure 2. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same 
configuration as the plug. Do not use adapters with this product.

 

 

4. If an extension cord is required, use only a three wire extension cord that has the same 

configuration as the unit cord, including the (round) ground terminal.   Make sure that the 
extension cord is plugged into a properly grounded receptacle.

 

 

5. When using an extension cord, be sure it is in good condition and heavy enough to meet the 

specifications in the chart below. If an extension cord is needed the following wire sizes must 
be used.

 

 

25’ cord (7.62m)…………………………............................ 10, 12, or 14 Gauge

 

50’ cord (15.24m)………………………………................... 10 or 12 Gauge

 

100’ cord (30.48m)…………  ……………………………...... 10 Gauge

 

 

Grounding instructions for all countries using a 2 pronged plug configuration. 

 

 

 
 

Figure 2

 

 

 

This product must be properly grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces

 

the risk of electrical shock by providing an alternate path for the electrical current.

 

 

This product is equipped with a cord that has a ground wire and an appropriate ground plug. Plug the unit into an outlet that 

is properly installed and grounded in accordance with local codes and ordinances.

 

 

Safety Note: Users in countries in continental Europe and Australia and anywhere that offers a two pronged plug must be 

aware that this configuration does not provide grounding.
