DANGER
To reduce risk of fire or
explosion:
1. Do not spray flammable or com-
bustible materials near an open
flame or sources of ignition such as
cigarettes, motors, and electrical
equipment.
2. Paint or solvent flowing through
the equipment is able to result in
static electricity. Static electricity
creates a risk of fire or explosion in
the presence of paint or solvent
fumes. All parts of the spray system,
including the pump, hose assembly,
spray gun, and objects in and
around the spray area shall be prop-
erly grounded to protect against
static discharge and sparks. Use only
conductive or grounded high-pres-
sure airless paint sprayer hoses spec-
ified by the manufacturer.
3. Verify that all containers and collec-
tion systems are grounded to pre-
vent static discharge.
4. Connect your sprayer to a grounded
outlet and use grounded extension
cords. Do not use a 3 prong to 2
prong adapter.
5. Do not use paints or solvents con-
taining halogenated hydrocarbons
such as methyl bromine, carbon
tetrachloride, and ethyl iodine.
6. Keep spray area well ventilated.
Keep a good supply of fresh air
moving through the spray area.
7. Do not smoke or eat in the spray
area.
8. Do not operate light switches,
engines, or similar spark producing
products in the spray area.
9. Keep area clean and free of paint or
solvent containers, rags, and other

present and working.
To reduce the risk of
skin injection:
1. Do not aim the gun at, or spray, any
person or animal.
2. Keep hands and other body parts
