Never point the spray gun at people.
Never reach into the spray jet.
Before any work on the device, in the event of work interruptions and malfunctions:
- Relieve pressure from spray guns and devices.

- Switch off the energy/compressed air supply.
- Disconnect the control unit from the mains.
- In the event of functional faults, remedy the fault as described in the

Ensure that during spraying, persons wear static dissipative gloves. The grounding
takes place via the spray gun handle.
Protective clothing, including gloves, must comply with EN 1149-5. The measured
insulation resistance must not exceed 100 megohms.
Ensure that there are no ignition sources such as naked fl ames, sparks, glowing wires,
or hot surfaces in the vicinity. Do not smoke.
Ensure that the pipe joints, hoses, equipment parts and connections are permanently,
technically leak-proof:
- Periodic preventative maintenance and service (replacing hoses, checking tightness
strength and connections, etc.)
- Regular monitoring of leaks and defects via visual inspection and odor testing, e.g.,
daily before commissioning, at the end of work or weekly.
In the event of defects, immediately bring the device or system to a stop and arrange
to have repairs carried out immediately.
Grounding
Make sure that the ground and potential equalization of all system parts are performed
reliably and continuously and can withstand the expected stress (e.g. mechanical
stress, corrosion).
