□
Grounding of the paint hose

Use a securely grounded paint hose. When using an extension paint hose, check that it has been
securely grounded. See the section
“For safety of the hose” (on page 5).
□
Grounding of the air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun
The air wrap airless electrostatic spray gun firmly connected with the correctly grounded hose
and paint pump is considered to be sufficiently grounded.
□
Always ground the controller.
□
Grounding of the product to be coated
The resistance between the product to be coated and the grounded conveyor shall not exceed
10k
Ω. Keep the hangers and earth clips clean in order to maintain the grounded condition.
□
Grounding of the human bodies
All operators entering the area where a spraying operation is performed shall wear antistatic
clothes with grounding wires and antistatic shoes with clean soles (conductive shoes with a
resistance about 10M
Ω) so that they will not be charged with static electricity.
When performing an electrostatic coating operation, hold the gun with bare hand. If you inevitably
need to wear gloves, make a hole at the palm of each glove so that part of your hand is kept in
direct contact with the gun grip or use conductive gloves.
□
Grounding of the paint container
No container other than lidded metallic ones can be used. The container shall be provided with an
exclusive opening for paint and put on a grounded floor or table so that it will be completely
grounded. If no floor or table is used for grounding, connect an exclusive grounding wire to the
paint container to completely ground it.
The container shall be kept closed with the lid during a spraying operation.
For detail, follow the instructions from the fire station with jurisdiction over your region.
□
Grounding of cans of solvent used for cleaning
Dripping or spouting cleaning solvent generates static electricity. If the container collecting the
cleaning solvent is made of a metal and not sufficiently grounded, a large amount of static
electricity is accumulated to impose a possibility of danger. Use a metallic container and put it on a
grounded floor or table, or otherwise completely ground it. Never put the container on a
non-conductive sheet such as a corrugated cardboard.
If no floor or table is used for grounding, connect an exclusive grounding wire to the solvent
container to completely ground it. When cleaning the paint pump or reducing the paint pressure,
the hose cap at the bottom of the gun extension shall be supported at the edge of the grounded
solvent container before pulling the trigger.
<<For safe cleaning>>
Before cleaning, check that the whole coating machine and cleaning solvent can have been correctly
grounded. (See the section
“Grounding cans of solvent used for cleaning.”)

When cleaning the system, remove the nozzle according to
“For safety of the nozzle” (on page 3)
and reduce the pressure as far as possible (to the lowest pressure required to run the cleaning
fluid).

To prevent generation of electrostatic sparks, bring the tip of the spray gun into contact with a
grounded can (metallic) before pulling the trigger to clean.
