at least 15 K above the ambient tem-
perature.
– Note explosion group of the fluid.
– Follow safety data sheets.
– Ensure that forced ventilation and fire
protection equipment are in operation.
– Do not use sources of ignition and
open light.
– Do not smoke.
WARNING!
Risk of injury from unsuitable replace-
ment parts in explosive areas.
Replacement parts not compliant with the
specifications of the ATEX guidelines can
cause explosions in an explosive atmos-
phere. Serious injuries and death can be
the consequence.
– Use exclusively original replacement
parts.
WARNING!

– Disconnect the system, in which the
spray gun is installed, from com-
pressed air and material supply.
– Secure the system against reconnec-
tion.

WARNING!
Danger of explosion due to chemical
reactions
Material, halogenated hydrocarbon-based
rinsing agent or cleaning agent can chemi-
cally react with aluminum components of
the product. Chemical reactions can
cause explosions. Serious injuries and
death can be the consequence.
– Only use rinsing agents and cleaning
agents that do not contain any halo-
genated hydrocarbons.
CAUTION!
