Page: 21 / 36

PIn order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first
disconnect the unit from the compressed air network, after having
correctly carried out the DEPRESSURISATION procedure
described in Section 10 of the Manual.
Never point the unit towards yourself, other personnel or animals.
The thinners and dilution media used can cause serious injury.
With this unit the product is sprayed at a very high pressure. The
stream coming from the gun, from leaks, or due to the breakage
of a component in the unit, could cause the product to be injected
at high pressure under the skin. LIkewise if the product is sprayed
or splashed in the eyes it can cause serious harm.
Never attempt to stop the application stream or a leak with your
hand or any other part of your body. If you suspect you may have
sprayed the product on your skin, IMMEDIATELY SEEK
MEDICAL ATTENTION. This incidence must not be treated as
a simple cut. Describe the product with which it ocurred to the
Doctor in as much detail as possible.
The location where work is carried out must have sufficient
ventilation in accordance with current legislation and regulations.
Near the unit, only keep the amount of product and thinner required
for the work being done at that time. After work has been
completed, thinners and the product to be applied must be
returned to their corresponding storage location.
Keep the working area clean and free of potentially dangerous
waste (thinners, rags, etc.)
While work is in progress, there must not be any source of ignition
(naked flames, lighted cigarettes, etc.) in the working area as
these might generate easily flammable gases. Likewise, the
approved protective means must be used (breathing, hearing,
etc.) in accordance with the regulations established in this regard.
If the unit is used in an inadequate manner or its components
are altered in any way, severe material damage may occur and
bodily harm may be caused to the operator, other personnel
and/or animals and may even cause death. SAGOLA, S.A.
accepts no responsibility in for any damage caused through the
incorrect use of the unit.
Always use approved breathing units in accordance with current
standards and regulations in order to protect yourself from
emissions produced during application.
Never exceed the maximum operation pressure.
As a general preventive measure we advise you to wear goggles
in accordance with the specific environmental regulations and
characteristics for the work centre.
Use gloves when handling the product (see the manufacturer's
recommendations) and cleaning the gun.
If, when the gun is in use, the ambient noise level exceeds 90
dB. the use of approved hearing protection is recommended.
The gun in itself does not propitiate any mechanical risk of
perforations, impact or pinching, except those deriving from
incorrect installations and handling.
USE SAGOLA ANTISTATIC HOSES TO ELIMINATE
POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL DISCHARGES THAT MIGHT
CREATE THE RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
Pay adequate attention when handling the unit in order to prevent
any damage that might lead to dangerous situations for the user
or personnel standing near the unit, as a consequence of leaks,
breakages, etc.
The gun has been designed for use at ambient temperature. The
maximum operating temperature is 50
o
C.
The use of solvents and/or detergents that contain halogenated
hydrocarbons (trichloroethane, methyl chloride, etc.), may cause
chemical reactions in the unit as well as in its zinc-coated
components (trichloroethane mixed with small amounts of water
produces hydrochloric acid). For this reason, these components
may rust and in extreme cases the chemical reaction caused
may be explosive. We recommend you use products that do not
contain the aforementioned components. Do not use acids, soda
(alkalis or pickling substances, etc.) for cleaning under any
circumstances.
In general, precautions must be taken whenever the unit is
handled, in order to prevent any deterioration to it.
Connectors must be securely tightened and in good condition.
Safety standards must be understood and applied.
Any non-compliance with the indications set out in this manual
may lead to incidents affecting the physical integrity of the user
or other personnel or animals.
Respect and comply with indications relating to the conservation
of the environment.
