Prepare the Operator
All persons who operate the equipment must be
trained in the safe, efficient operation of all system
components as well as the proper handling of all fluids.
All operators must thoroughly read all instruction
manuals, tags, and labels before operating the
equipment.
Prepare the Site
Ensure that you have an adequate compressed air
supply. Refer to the performance charts on pages 21
and 23 to find the air consumption of your sprayer.
Mount the pump (A) to suit the type of installation
planned. The pump dimensions and mounting hole
layout are shown on page 19.
Keep the site clear of any obstacles or debris that
could interfere with the operator’s movement.
Have a grounded, metal pail available for use when
flushing the system.

Air and fluid hoses: Use only electrically conductive
hoses with 500 ft (150 m) maximum combined hose
length to ensure grounding continuity.

Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow your local
code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive,
placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the
pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or
cardboard, which interrupts the grounding
continuity.

To maintain proper grounding continuity when
flushing or relieving pressure, always hold the metal
part of the spray gun firmly to the side of a
grounded metal pail, then trigger the gun.
