SAFE HANDLING OF WAGNER SPRAY DEVICES
The spray jet is under pressure and can cause dangerous injuries.
Avoid injection of paint or fl ushing agents:
Never point the spray gun at people.
Never reach into the spray jet.
Before all work on the device, in the event of work interruptions and functional faults:
- Switch off the energy/compressed air supply.
- Relieve the pressure from the spray gun and device.
- Secure the spray gun to prevent actuation.
- In the event of functional faults, remedy the fault as described in the "Troubleshooting"
chapter.
If necessary, or at least every 12 months, the liquid ejection devices should be checked
by an expert (e.g. Wagner service technician) to ensure their safe operational condition
in accordance with the guidelines for liquid ejection devices (ZH 1/406 and BGR 500
Part 2 Chapter 2.29 and 2.36).
- If devices have been decommissioned, the examination can be suspended until the
next start-up.
