SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
FOR SPRAY GUNS
SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPRAY gUNS
1) Keep area clean well lit and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other
flammable materials. Spontaneous combustion may occur. Fire extinguisher equipment
must be present and working at all times.
2) Provide for good ventilation in the spraying area and for sufficient fresh air in the
complete room. Evaporating flammable solvents create an explosive environment.
3) Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 32° C for spraying and cleaning. Use
water-based materials, non-volatile hydrocarbons or similar materials. Fast evaporating
solvents create an explosive environment.
4) Do not spray in the vicininty of ignition sources, such as static electricity sparks, open
flames, pilot lights, hot objects, engines/motors, cigarettes and sparks from plugging in
or unplugging power cords or operating switches. Such spark sources can ignite the
spraying vicinity/environment.
5) Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential. Unknown materials can create
hazardous conditions.
6) Wear additional protective equipment such as appropriate protective gloves and
protective masks or respirators when spraying or handling chemicals. Wearing
protective equipment for the appropriate conditions reduces the exposure to hazardous
substances.
7) Never point the spray jet against yourself, towards other persons or animals. Keep your
hands and other body parts away from the spray jet. If the spray jet should penetrate
the skin, seek medical attention immediately. The material being sprayed can even
penetrate the skin through a glove and be injected into your body.
8) Do not treat injection as a simple cut. High pressure spray is able to inject toxins into
the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs, seek
medical attention immediately.
9) Always disconnect power cord from the power source before filling the paint container
or cleaning the spray gun.
Warning
: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual
cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood
by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the operator.
Note: Performance of this tool may vary depending on variations in local line voltage.
Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
VOLTAgE WARNINg
Before connecting the tool to a power source (receptacle, outlet, ect.) be sure the voltage
supplied is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. If one says 120V and
the other says 115V then there will be no complications. Never try to plug a 120V tool into
a 240V outlet, or the other way around. The plug and outlet have completely different
shapes. This is because a power source with a voltage greater than that specified on the
tool can result in
SERIOUS INJURY
to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt,
DO NOT PLUg IN THE TOOL
.
ExTENSION CORDS
Your tool has a polarized, two-prong plug. Do not
alter the plug in any way. Only use rounded
jacket extension cords listed by the Underwriters
Laboratories (UL). Improper use of extension
cords may cause inefficient operation of your tool
which can result in overheating. Be sure your
extension cord is rated to allow sufficient current
flow to the motor. If you are using the tool
outdoors, use an extension cord rated for
outdoor use (signified by “WA” on the jacket).
The extension cord must have a minimum wire size depending on the amperage of the tool
and the length of the extension cord. This size is determined by its AWG (American Wire
Gauge) rating. The smaller the gauge, the greater the cable’s capacity. The amount of
cords used does not matter: Total length determines the minimum AWG rating. Every cord
must meet the AWG rating. Use the chart above to determine what AWG rating is required
for your situation. Cord length is rated in feet.
