CAUTION
THIS UNIT IS PROVIDED WITH A THERMALLY PRO-
TECTED AUTOMATIC RESET. IF AN OVERLOAD
OCCURS THE THERMALLY PROTECTED AUTO-
MATIC RESET DISCONNECTS THE MOTOR FROM
THE POWER SUPPLY.
• The motor will restart without warning when the
protector automatically resets.
• Always disconnect the motor from the power supply
before working on the equipment.
• When the thermally protected automatic reset discon-
nects the motor from the power supply, relieve pres-
sure by turning the priming valve to PRIME ( ).
• Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF.
NOTE: The cause of the overload should be cor-
rected before restarting. See TROUBLE-
SHOOTING.
WARNING
INJECTION INJURY - A high pressure stream of
paint produced by this equipment can pierce the skin
and underlying tissues, leading to serious injury and
possible amputation.
DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE
CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See a physician
immediately.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important
to treat the injury surgically as soon as possible. DO NOT
delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is a concern
with some coatings injected directly into the blood stream.
Consultation with a plastic surgeon or reconstructive
hand surgeon may be advisable.
• The maximum operating range of the gun is 2500 PSI
fluid pressure.
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to come in contact
with the fluid stream. DO NOT come in contact with a
fluid stream created by 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. Pres-
sure will not be released by turning off the engine. The
PRIME/SPRAY knob must be turned to PRIME ( ) to
relieve the pressure. Refer to the PRESSURE RE-
LIEF PROCEDURE described in this manual.
• ALWAYS have the tip guard in place while spraying.
The tip guard provides some protection against
injection injuries but is mainly a warning device.
• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or
cleaning the system.
• The paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking
and abuse. A leak is capable of injecting material into
the skin. Inspect the paint hose before each use.
• NEVER use a spray gun which does not have a trigger
lock or trigger guard in place and in working order.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 2500 PSI.
This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.
• DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A
SIMPLE CUT! A skin injection can lead to amputation.
See a physician immediately.
