FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint 
fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To 
help prevent fire and explosion:
•Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
•Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, 
cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic 
drop cloths (potential static arc). 

• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags 

and gasoline.

• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or 

light switches on or off when flammable fumes are 
present.

• Ground all equipment in the work area. See Ground-

ing instructions.

• Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when trigger-

ing into pail.

• If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop 

operation immediately. Do not use equipment until 
you identify and correct the problem.

• Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
• When flammable liquid is sprayed or used for flushing 

or cleaning, keep sprayer at least 20 feet (6 meters) 
away from explosive vapors.

• Do not clean with materials having flash points lower 

than 70° F (21° C). Use water-based materials or 
mineral spirits-type material only. For complete infor-
mation about your fluid, request the MSDS from the 
fluid distributor or retailer.

EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD

Misuse can cause death or serious injury.

• Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the 

influence of drugs or alcohol.

• Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or 

temperature rating of the lowest rated system compo-
nent. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.

• Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with 

equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all 
equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufac-
turer’s warnings. For complete information about your 
material, request MSDS forms from distributor or 
retailer.

• Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or 

damaged parts immediately with genuine manufac-
turer’s replacement parts only.

• Do not alter or modify equipment.
• Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call 

your distributor for information.

• Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, 

sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.

• Do not kink or over bend hoses or use hoses to pull 

equipment.

• Keep children and animals away from work area.
• Comply with all applicable safety regulations.

PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD 

Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chlo-
ride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or 

fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum 
equipment. Such use can cause serious chemical reac-
tion and equipment rupture, and result in death, serious 
injury, and property damage. 

PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT

You must wear appropriate protective equipment 
when operating, servicing, or in the operating 

area of the equipment to help protect you from serious 
injury, including eye injury, inhalation of toxic fumes, 
burns, and hearing loss. This equipment includes but is
