INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause
extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed into the eyes or onto the
skin can also cause serious injury.
Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate
medical attention.
Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
Do not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip.
Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.
Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.
Always have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the gun when spraying.
Check the gun diffuser operation weekly. Refer to the gun manual.
Be sure the gun trigger safety operates before spraying.
Lock the gun trigger safety when you stop spraying.
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 whenever you: are instructed to relieve
pressure; stop spraying; clean, check, or service the equipment; and install or clean the spray tip.
Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do
not repair high pressure couplings; you must replace the entire hose.
Fluid hoses must have spring guards on both ends, to help protect them from rupture caused by
kinks or bends near the couplings.
