hazard: exploSion or fire
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.
Severe injury and/or property damage can occur.
prevention:
•
Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors.
•
Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks,
electrical appliances, flames, pilot lights, hot objects, and
sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords or
working light switches.
•
Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to
enclose spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when
spraying flammable materials.
•
Do not smoke in spray area.
•
Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working
order.

1.3
electric Safety
Electric models must be grounded/earthed. In the event
of an electrical short circuit, grounding/earthing reduces
the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having
an grounding/earthing wire with an appropriate grounding/
earthing plug. Connection to the power cord only through a
special feed point, e.g. through an error protection insallation
with INF < 30 mA.
DANGER — Work or repairs at the electrical
equipment may only be carried out by a skilled
electrician. No liability is assumed for incorrect
installation. Switch the unit off. Before all repair
work, unplug the power plug from the outlet.
Danger of short-circuits caused by water
ingressing into the electrical equipment. Never
spray down the unit with high-pressure or high-
pressure steam cleaners.
Caution – The power cord for this equipment
acts as an supply circuit connector. The power
cord must be placed near an easily accessible,
unobstructed socket-outlet.
