SAFETY RULES FOR SPRAY GUNS
RISK TO BREATHING
• Spray materials may be harmful if inhaled, or if there is contact with the skin.
Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep the air free of accumulations of toxic
materials. For toxic vapors produced by spraying certain materials can create intoxica-
tion and serious damage to health. Always wear safety glasses, gloves and respirator
to prevent the toxic vapor hazard, solvent and pointing paint coming into contact your
eyes or skin.
• Operate the Spray Gun in a well-ventilated area. Read and follow all safety instruc-
tions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator
designed for use with your specific application.
RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
• Avoid dangerous environments. Do not spray combustible/flammable liquid in a
confined area. Spray area must be well ventilated. Do not smoke while spraying or
spray where spark or flame is present. Do not use Spray Gun near gasoline or other
flammable materials. Operate the Spray Gun in a well-ventilated area. Never use
oxygen, combustible or other bottled gas as an air source. This could cause explosion
and serious personal injury. Fluid and solvent can be highly flammable or combustible.
Read and follow all safety instructions for the material
you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator designed for use with your
specific application.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in the spray area.
RISK OF INJURY
• Air under pressure can cause severe injury. Always shut off air supply, drain hose of
air pressure and disconnect tool from air supply when not in use and before chang-
ing accessories or when making repairs. Never direct air at yourself or anyone else.
Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always check for damaged or loose hoses
and fittings. Never use quick-change couplings at tool. They add weight and could fail
due to vibration. Instead, add a hose whip and connect coupling between air supply
and hose whip, between hose whip and leader hose whip, or between hose whip and
leader hose. Do not exceed
MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURE
. Use clean, dry and regu-
lated compressed air. Never exceed maximum permissive operating pressure. Always
use tool a safe distance from other people in work area.
