HAZARD: INjECTION INjuRy
A high pressure stream produced
by this equipment can pierce the
skin and underlying tissues, leading
to serious injury and possible
amputation.
Do not treat a spraying injury as
a harmless cut. In case of injury to
the skin through coating materials
or solvents, consult a doctor
immediately for quick and expert
treatment. Inform the doctor about
the coating material or solvent used.
PREVENTION:
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch
the fluid stream. DO NOT allow body to
touch a leak in the fluid hose.
• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun.
Gloves will not provide protection against
an injection injury.
• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the fluid
pump off and release all pressure before
servicing, cleaning the tip guard, changing
tips, or leaving unattended. Pressure will
not be released by turning off the engine.
The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed
valve must be turned to their appropriate
positions to relieve system pressure.
• ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while
spraying. The tip guard provides some
protection but is mainly a warning device.
• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before
flushing or cleaning the system.
• NEVER use a spray gun without a working
trigger lock and trigger guard in place.
• All accessories must be rated at or above
the maximum operating pressure range of
the sprayer. This includes spray tips, guns,
extensions, and hose.
