Safety Safety
Important Safety
Information
Read all safety information before operating
the equipment. Save these instructions.
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
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.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into
an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.
waRnIng - Improper installation of the grounding plug
can result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
green grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation
having a green outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the grounding
wire and must be connected to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. Make sure that the product is
connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter
should be used with this product.

waRnIng - To reduce the risk of fire or
explosion:
1. Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame,
pilot lights or sources of ignition such as hot objects, cigarettes, motors,
electrical equipment and electrical appliances. Avoid creating sparks
from connecting and disconnecting power cords.
2. Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to keep the air
within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.
3. Use extreme caution when using materials with a flashpoint below 100°
F (38°C). A fluid’s flashpoint is the temperature at which vapors from the
fluid could ignite if exposed to a flame or spark.
4. Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to
prevent static discharge.
5. Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension cords
(electric models only). Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
6. Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.
Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide, methylene chloride and
trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum. Contact the
coating supplier about compatibility of material with aluminum.
7. Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air
moving through the area to keep the air within the spray area free
from accumulation of flammable vapors. Keep turbine assembly in well
ventilated area. Do not the spray turbine assembly.
8. Do not smoke in the spray area.
9. Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing
products in the spray area.
10. Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other
flammable materials.
11. Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed. Read all
Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided with
the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvent manufacture’s
safety instructions.
12. Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.
waRnIng - To reduce the risk of injury:
1. Always wear appropriate gloves, eye protection, clothing and a
respirator or mask when painting. Hazardous vapors – Paints, solvents,
insecticides, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or come
in contact with body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting or
poisoning.
2. Do not operate or spray near children. Keep children away from
equipment at all times.
3. Do not overreach or stand on an unstable support. Keep effective
footing and balance at all times.
4. Stay alert and watch what you are doing.
5. Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs
or alcohol.
6. Never aim spray gun at any part of the body.
7. Follow all appropriate local, state, and national codes governing
ventilation, fire prevention, and operation.
8. The United States Government Safety Standards have been adopted
under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). These standards,
particularly part 1910 of the General Standards and part 1926 of the
Construction Standards should be consulted.
9. Use only manufacturer authorized replacement parts. User assumes
all risks and liabilities when using parts that do not meet the minimum
specifications and safety devices of the manufacturer.
10. Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.
11. Use only recommended Titan FlexSpray components.
12. Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
waRnIng - To reduce the risk of electric shock:
1. Always remove turbine before cleaning.
2. Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit.
3. Never submerge electrical parts, including the turbine.
4. Never expose the equipment to rain. Store indoors.
5. Keep electrical cord plug and spray gun trigger free from paint and
other liquids. Never hold the cord at plug connections to support the
cord. Failure to observe may result in an electrical shock.
Important Electrical Information
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug and a
3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure your
extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power, overheating and possible damage.
This unit is equipped with a 14 gauge power cord, therefore a 14 gauge or 12
gauge extension cord is required. Do not use more than 100 feet of extension
cord.
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix
W-A after the cord type designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A
would indicate that the cord would be appropriate for outdoor use.
