Important Safety Information
Read all safety information before operating the equipment. Save these
instructions
To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electrical shock and the injury to persons, read and understand
all instructions included in this manual. Be familiar with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.
Severe injury or property damage can occur.
PREVENTION:
• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to keep the air within the spray area free from
accumulation of
flammable vapors.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, electrical
appliances, and hot objects. Connecting or
disconnecting power cords or working light
switches can make sparks.
• Do not smoke in spray area.
• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working order.
• Use only outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Flammable vapors are often heavier than air. The turbine
contains arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer’s warnings and instructions.
• Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 70°F
(21°C). Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid can produce enough vapors to ignite (see coating
supplier).
• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose the spray area. Do not use plastic drop
cloths when spraying flammable materials.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE
TO INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS.
Will cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
• Do not use materials containing bleach or
chlorine.
• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as bleach, mildewcide, methylene chloride and
1,1,1--trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum.
• Contact your coating supplier about the compatibility of
material with aluminum.
HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other
materials can be harmful if inhaled or come in
contact with the body. Vapors can cause
severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be
inhaled. Read all instructions supplied with
the mask to be sure it will provide the
necessary protection.
• Wear protective eyewear.
• Wear protective clothing as required by coating manufacturer.
HAZARD: GENERAL
Can cause severe injury or property damage.
PREVENTION:
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before operating equipment.
• Follow all appropriate local, state, and national codes
governing ventilation, fire prevention, and operation.
• Use only manufacturer authorized parts. User assumes all
risks and liabilities when using parts that do not meet the
minimum specifications and safety devices of the turbine
manufacturer.
• Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
• Wear protective clothing to keep paint off skin and hair.
• Never aim spray gun at any part of the body.
Household use only. Intended for outdoor use ONLY with materials having flashpoint
above 70ºF (21ºC).
Important Electrical Information
1. The tool plug must fit into the socket. The plug may not be modified in any form. Do not use
adaptor plugs together with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
2. Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating elements, stoves and
refrigerators. The risk through electric shock increases if your body is earthed.
3. Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture. The risk of an electric shock increases if water
penetrates electrical equipment.
4. Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool by the lead, hanging it from the lead or by
pulling on the lead to remove the plug. Keep the lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
tool parts. Damaged or twisted leads increase the risk of an electric shock.
5. If you work outdoors, use only extension leads that are approved for outdoor use. The use of
an extension lead that is suitable for outdoors reduces the risk of an electric shock.
