WARNING
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire
and explosion:
-
Do not spray combustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition such as cigarettes, motors,
and electrical equipment.
- Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity cre-
ates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system,
including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun, and objects in and around the spray area shall be properly
grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use approved conductive or grounded high-pres-
sure airless paint sprayer hoses.
- Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge. Do not use
bags for paint tanks.
- Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extensions cords. Do not use adapters without gan eart-
hing rounding contact.
- Do not use a paint or a solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.
- Do not spray combustible liquids in a confined area.
- Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the area.
- Sprayer generates sparks. Keep pump assembly in a well ventilated area at least 6.1 m from the spray
area when spraying, flushing, cleaning, or servicing. Do not spray pump assembly.
- Do not smoke in the spray area or spray where sparks or flame is present.
- Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the spray area.
- Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.
- Know the contents of the paints and solvents being sprayed. Read all Safety Data Sheet (SDS) and con-
tainer labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvents manufacturer's safety
instructions.
- Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.
WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause serious bodily injury. In the event that
injection occurs, get immediate surgical treatment.
- Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
- Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For example, do not try to stop leaks with any
part of the body.
- Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without nozzle tip guard in place.
-
Use original equipment nozzle tips.
- Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. If the spray nozzle clogs while spraying, follow the
pressure relief procedure for turning off the unit and relieving the pressure before removing and cleaning
the nozzle.
- The system remains pressurised after having switched it off. Do not leave energised or pressurised units
unattended. Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when the equipment is unattended or not in use, and
before servicing, cleaning, or removing parts.
- Check hoses and parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged hoses or parts.
- This system is capable of producing pressures of up to 207 bar. Use original equipment replacement
parts or accessories that are rated a minimum of 207 bar.
-
Always engage the trigger lock when the gun is not in use. Verify the trigger lock is functioning properly.
- Verify that all connections have been securely connected before operating the unit.
- Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls.
