which can result in serious bodily injury and property
damage. Always ground the sprayer and system com-
ponents and the object being sprayed.
• Ensure proper electrical service and amperage
and that the outlet is properly grounded.

• To reduce the risk of static sparking, which can
cause fire or explosion, always hold a metal part of
the gun firmly against the metal pail when flushing.
This also reduces splashing.
• To reduce risk of injection, always remove the
