can ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and explo-
sion:
•
Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
•
Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths
(potential static arc).
•
Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes are present.
•
Ground all equipment in the work area. See

Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail. Do not use pail liners unless they are antistatic or
conductive.
•
Stop operation immediately
if static sparking occurs or you feel a shock
.
Do not use equipment until you identify
and correct the problem.
•
Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
•
When flammable liquid is sprayed or used for flushing or cleaning, keep sprayer at least 20 feet (6 meters) away
from explosive vapors.
•
Do not clean with materials having flash points lower than 70° F (21° C). Use water-based materials or mineral
