ALL MODELS
Electrical
Dangerous voltages exist at several points in this equipment.
To avoid personal injury, do not touch exposed connections
and components while input power is on. Disconnect, lockout
and tag external electrical power before removing protective
panels.
A secure connection to a reliable earth ground is essential for safe operation.
An electrical disconnect switch with lockout capability must be provided in the line ahead of the unit. Wiring used to
supply electrical power should be installed by a qualified electrician.
High Temperatures
Severe burns can occur if unprotected skin comes in contact
with molten adhesive or hot application system parts.
Face shields (preferred) or safety glasses (for minimum
protection), gloves and long- sleeved clothing must be worn
whenever working with or around adhesive application
systems.
High Pressure
To avoid personal injury, do not operate the equipment
without all covers, panels and safety guards properly installed.
To prevent serious injury from molten adhesive under
pressure when servicing the equipment, disengage the pumps
and relieve the adhesive system’s hydraulic pressure (ie.,
trigger the heads, hand-held applicators, and/or other application devices into a waste container) before opening any hy-
draulic fittings or connections.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Even when a system’s pressure gauge reads “0” psi, residual pressure and trapped air can remain
within it causing hot adhesive and pressure to escape without warning when a filter cap or a hose or hydraulic connec-
tion is loosened or removed. For this reason, always wear eye protection and protective clothing.
Either of the two High Pressure symbols shown may be used on ITW Dynatec equipment.
Protective Covers
Keep all guards in place!
To avoid personal injury, do not operate the application
system without all covers, panels and safety guards
properly installed.
Service
Refer all servicing to qualified personnel only. Wear appropriate protective clothing and shut off rotating machinery be-
fore performing service. Long hair and loose clothing present a risk around rotating machinery.
