6. CAUTIONS WHEN BANDING L. V. CABLE WITH HOSES
(1) In order to extend the life of the cable, follow the instructions on the cautions of banding the
cable with the hoses.
1) Do not band the connection cable at the length shorter than 70cm from the grip portion of
the gun.
2) When banding the cable, there should be enough allowance to the cable relative to the air
and paint hose so as not to cause excessive bending or tension to the cable when the gun
is faced upward, downward, left or right.
3) When banding the cable at a length longer than 70 cm from the grip portion of the gun,
make an enough allowance at 5cm intervals using resin bands (insulation lock) vinyl tape.
Do not wind the vinyl tape of wide-spiral tape continuously, because the wound part
becomes the rod-like shape and this might cause the breakage of the cable or hose.
(2) Do not operate the gun or do not band the cable so as not to cause excessive bending or
tensile to the cable, air hose and paint hose during painting. If this is not observed, breakage
might occur due to degradation of strength.
(3) Please pay attention not to step on the cable. Breakage might occur if you step on the cable
placed on the metal pallet.
(4) Do not wind on the cable the vinyl tape or the like continuously for reinforcement or
contamination-prevention, especially portion close to the gun connector. Breakage might
occur if you step on the cable placed on the metal pallet.
(5) Do not immerse cable into solvent or paint. It will shorten the cable life.
(6) Wipe off the solvent on the surface or air-blowing should be performed after washing of the
cable.
(7) Do not use metal cable ties, they will build a capacitance charge and discharge to nearest
ground.
