ELECTRICAL SAFETY
! DANGER
To reduce the risk of electric shock:
•
This product requires a properly grounded
outlet to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Ensure the power outlet is properly grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
The plug and outlet should look like those in Fig.
A. Consult with a qualified electrician or service
person if grounding instructions are not
understood or if there is doubt as to whether the
equipment is properly grounded.
•
Do not modify the power cord plug
provided with the tool.
Never remove the
grounding prong from the plug. If the plug will
not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician.
•
Do not use the tool if the power cord or
plug is damaged.
If damaged, have it
repaired by a service facility before use.
•
Outlet must match the plug. Do not use any kind
of adapter with an earthed (grounded) plug.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
the risk of electric shock.
•
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
•
Do not expose this product to rain or wet
conditions.
Water entering the product will
increase the risk of electric shock.
•
If an extension cord is needed, use a 12 AWG
(2.5mm
2
) minimum to supply the correct
amount of current for the tool. An undersized
cord will result in voltage drop which will
cause loss of power
and overheating.
•
Use only a 3-wire
extension cord with
a grounding plug
that has a properly
grounded receptacle
that will accept the
plug on this tool.
•
Follow local codes when choosing a solvent
pail for flushing.
Use only conductive metal pails
placed on a grounded surface such as concrete.
Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface
such as paper or cardboard. Connect a ground
wire between the pail and a ground such as a
metal pipe. When flushing or relieving pressure
hold a metal portion of the spray gun against the
pail to ensure continuity to ground then spray.

SKIN INJECTION SAFETY
! WARNING
IN CASE OF ACCIDENTAL SKIN INJECTION
SEEK IMMEDIATE MEDICAL TREATMENT!
High pressure spray or leaks can penetrate skin
resulting in serious injury or death.
To reduce the risk of skin injection:
•
Verify all connections are tightened
BEFORE turning on the unit.
•
Do not aim the gun or spray at any person
or animal.
•
Keep hands and other body parts clear of
spray tip and leaks.
Do not attempt to stop
leaks with any part of the body.
•
Always use a nozzle tip guard. Never spray
without a nozzle tip guard installed.
•
Engage the trigger lock when not spraying.
Equipment maintains pressure after power is
shut off.
•
Inspect the hoses and parts for any
damage before each use.
Replace any
damaged hose or parts only with original
replacements.
•
Replacement components must have a
pressure rating not less than the pump
rating of 3000 PSI (205 bar).
! WARNING
•
Always follow the Pressure Relief Procedure
to turn off and relieve pressure.
Do not leave
the unit energized or under pressure while
unattended or not in use.
•
Use caution when cleaning and changing
hoses, nozzle tips, tip guards, or when
installing extensions.
Follow the Pressure Relief
Procedure for turning off and relieving pressure
before attempting to change.
HOT SURFACE SAFETY
Equipment surfaces and fluid that are pressurized
can become hot during operation. Avoid burns by
not touching hot fluid or equipment.
