components in question! Where necessary, take protective measures and effect
special notification of the particular hazard(s)!
When using substances such as solvents which can generate an increased
explosion potential due to atomisation or spraying in air, take protective measures
and effect special notification of the particular hazard! In case of doubt, consult the
supplier of the components!
The compatibility of the parts of the spray gun which come into contact with the
material cannot be guaranteed with all potential coating substances (see chart "Parts
in contact with the material" in Section 10, Technical Data). In case of doubt, consult
Krautzberger GmbH!
(!)
Under no circumstances should the spray jet be directed at people or animals!
The jet can penetrate the skin, enter the body and force air into the organism. Risk of
fatal embolism!
The material jet is particularly dangerous if no airless nozzle is mounted and
the jet is discharged directly from the valve seat screw!
There is also the risk of poisoning when using poisonous coating substances or
detergents!
Preventive measures: set up an emergency first aid unit in the plant (e.g. first aid
training of suitable employees).
What do to in the case of an accident:
Immediate measures: correct treatment of wounds.
Further measures: immediate treatment by an emergency service doctor who has
been informed of the substance used.
Do not stand in the area of the material jet!
Never direct the spray jet at electrical systems or equipment!
Do not spray workpieces or surfaces which are insufficiently stable! The high-
powered spray jet is powerful enough to cause parts of the workpiece or surface to
fly around in the working zone.
During spraying and due to rebound off the workpiece, coating material is discharged
into the surrounding atmosphere. Depending on the coating material used, this can
result in environmental hazards, fire and explosion risk, and health hazards. For this
reason, only use spraying equipment in specially designated areas!
Only work in adequately ventilated areas! If necessary, use suitable extraction
systems!
Ensure adequate earthing (e.g. connection to building earth)!
Radiators or water pipes do not provide sufficient earth contact!
During lengthy breaks in operation or when shutting down the equipment as well as
prior to dismantling or the start of repair and maintenance work, close the shutoff
valve at the material source and press the trigger (22 or 25) until the material
pressure has fully dissipated!
