Grounding
The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces
the risk of static and electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electrical current due to static build
up or in the event of a short circuit.
Pump: connect the ground wire (A) firmly to a metal
part of the tank such as the swivel (B) at the base of the
regulator. Connect the other end of the wire to a true
earth ground. See F
. 1. Order Part No. 237569
Ground Wire and Clamp.
Air compressor: follow manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Object being sprayed: follow local code.
Solvent pails used when flushing: follow local code.
Use only conductive metal pails, placed on a grounded
surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive sur-
face, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts
grounding continuity.
To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or
relieving pressure: hold metal part of the spray gun
firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger
the gun.
