inject material into the skin.
7. Do not expose the hose to temperatures or pressures in
excess of those specified by manufacturer.
8. Do not use the hose as a strength member to pull or lift the
equipment.
9. Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.
10. Follow all appropriate local, state and national codes
governing ventilation, fire prevention and operation.
11. 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.

of couplings. Immediately replace hose if any of those
conditions exist. Never repair a paint hose. Replace with
a conductive high-pressure hose.
13. Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
14. Always unplug cord from outlet before working on
equipment (electric models only).
Grounding Instructions
Electric models 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.

IMPORTaNT: 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 and overheating. a 12
gauge cord is recommended. 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.
