there are no ignition sources in the vicinity, such as naked flames, sparks, glowing wires,
hot surfaces, lighted cigarettes etc. The distance between spray jet exit and a possible
source of ignition (even the Blower itself) must be at least 5 m (fire and explosion hazard
from ignitable spray mist).
●
It must not be used in works locations subject to the provisions of explosion prevention
regulation, or on premises and in areas where there is a risk of fire.
●
Use only paints and solvents with a flash point of 21
°
C/70
°
F or higher without additional
heating (see details on paint tin).
●
When working in confined spaces, these must be properly ventilated using effective
technical ventilation systems.
●
The sprayed paint emerges from the nozzle at high pressure. Never direct the spray jet at
people or animals. If the skin is injured by paint, lacquer or solvent there is a risk of
infection. Seek medical treatment immediately and tell the doctor which paint, lacquer or
solvent was used.
●
Poisonous fumes may be given off during spraying (see paint tin for details). Use a
breathing mask as directed by paint manufacturer’s instructions. Keep children and other
people away from the working area.
●
The
ABAC
SG 2500 Motor Blower is not splash-proof. It must not be used out of doors,
when it is raining or splashed or washed with water or immersed in liquid.
●
Keep the
ABAC

and unauthorized personnel. Make sure that no unauthorized personnel (particularly
children) can put the
ABAC
SG 2500 Motor Blower into operation.
