• Always operate, inspect and maintain this tool in accordance with
  American National Standards Institute Safety Code of Portable Air
  Tools (ANSI B186.1) and any other applicable safety codes and
  regulations..

• During cleaning and flushing, sol vents can be

forcefully expelled from fluid and air

passages. Some solvents can cause eye injury.

• Be sure all in the area are wearing im pact-

resistant eye and face protection.

• Even small projectiles can in jure eyes and

cause blind ness.

• High sound levels can cause per ma nent hear ing

loss. Protect your self from noise. Noise levels

vary with work sur face. Wear ear pro tec tion.

• Repetitive work motions, awk ward po si tions and

ex po sure to vibration can be harm ful to hands

and arms.

• Air under pressure can cause severe injury.

Al ways shut off air supply, drain hose of air

pres sure and dis con nect tool from air supply

when not in use, be fore chang ing ac ces so ries

or when mak ing re pairs. Nev er di rect air at

your self or anyone else. Whip ping hos es can

cause serious injury. Al ways check for damaged

or loose hoses and fit tings. Never use quick

change cou plings at tool. They add weight and

could fail due to vi bra tion. In stead, add a hose

whip and con nect cou pling be tween air sup ply

and hose whip, or be tween hose whip and

leader hose. Do not ex ceed max i mum air inlet

pres sure of 50 PSI.

• Always use tool at a safe distance from other peo ple
  in work area.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean and oiled for best
  and safest performance. Follow in struc tions for lu bri cat ing
  and chang ing ac ces so ries. Wiping or clean ing rags and other
  flam ma ble waste materials must be placed in a tight ly closed
  metal con tain er and disposed of later in the prop er fash ion.
• Do not wear loose or ill-fit ting clothing; re move watch es
  and rings.

• Do not over reach. Keep prop er footing and

bal ance at all times. Slip ping, trip ping and

falling can be a ma jor cause of se ri ous in ju ry

or death. Be aware of excess hose left on the

walk ing or work sur face.

• Do not force tool. It will do the job better and

safer at the rate for which it was de signed.

• Do not abuse hoses or con nec tors. Never carry

tool by the hose or yank hose to dis con nect

from air sup ply. Keep hoses from heat, oil and

sharp edg es. Check hoses for weak or worn

condition before each use, mak ing cer tain that

all con nec tions are se cure.

• When possible, secure work with clamps or vise so both hands
  are free to op er ate tool.

• Avoid inhaling dust or han dling de bris from

work processes which can be harmful to your

health.

• Operators and maintenance per son nel must be

phys i cal ly able to handle the bulk, weight and

power of this tool.

• This tool is not intended for us ing in ex plo sive at mospheres and
  is not insulated for contact with electric power sources.

• Solvent and coatings can be highly flam ma ble

or com bus ti ble, especially when sprayed.

Adequate exhaust must be pro vid ed to keep air

free of ac cu mu la tions of flam ma ble vapors.

• Smoking must never be allowed in the spray area.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in the spray area.
• Never spray near sources of ignition such as pilot lights,
  welders, etc.
• Halogenated hydrocarbon sol vents — for example, me th yl ene
  chloride — are not chem i cal ly compatible with the alu mi num
  that might be used in many system com po nents. The chemical
  re ac tion caused by these solvents reacting with aluminum can
  be come violent and lead to an equip ment explosion. Guns with
  stain less steel fluid passages may be used with these sol vents.
  How ev er, aluminum is widely used in other spray ap plica tion
  equipment - such as material pumps, cups and reg u la tors,
  valves, etc. Check all other equipment items be fore use and
  make sure they can also be used safely with these solvents.
  Read the label or data sheet for the ma te ri al you intend to spray.
  If in doubt as to whether or not a coating or cleaning ma te ri al is
  com pat i ble, contact your ma te ri al supplier.
