WARNING
HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.
FOR PROFESSIONAL USE ONLY. OBSERVE ALL WARNINGS.
Read and understand all instruction manuals before operating equipment.
FLUID INJECTION HAZARD .. :
General Safety
This equipment generates very high fluid pressure. Spray from
the gun, leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid
through your skin and into your body and cause extremely
serious bodily injury, including the need for amputation. Also,
fluid injected or splashed into the eyes or on the skin can
cause serious damage.
NEVER point the spray gun at anyone or at any part of the
body. NEVER put hand or fingers over the spray tip. NEVER
try to "blow back" paint; this is NOT an air spray system.
ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the spray gun when
spraying.
ALWAYS follow the
Pressure Relief Procedure,
below,
before
cleaning or removing the spray tip or servicing any
system equipment.
NEVER try to stop or deflect leaks with your hand or body.
Be sure equipment safety devices are operating properly
before each use.
Medical Alert-Airless Spray Wounds
If any fluid appears to penetrate your skin, get
EMERGENCY
MEDICAL- CARE AT ONCE. DO NOT TREAT AS A
SIMPLE CUT. Tell the doctor exactly what fluid was injected.
Note to Physician:
Injection in the skin is a traumatic in
jury.
It is important to treat the injury surgically as soon
as possible.
Do not delay treatment to research toxicity.
Toxicity is a concern with some exotic coatings injected
directly into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic
surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
Spray Gun Safety Devices
Be sure all gun safety devices are operating properly before
each use. Do not remove or modify any part of the gun; this
can cause a malfunction and result in serious bodily injury.
Safety latch
Whenever you stop spraying, even for a moment, always set
the gun safety latch in the closed or "safe" position, making
the gun inoperative. Failure to set the safety latch can result in
accidental triggering of the gun.
Diffuser
The gun diffuser breaks up spray and reduces the risk of fluid
injection when the tip is not installed. Check diffuser operation
regularly. Follow the
Pressure Relief Procedure,
below,
then remove the spray tip. Aim the gun into a metal pail,
holding the gun firmly to the pail. Using the lowest possible
pressure, trigger the gun. If the fluid emitted
is not
diffused in
to an irregular stream, replace the diffuser immediately.
Tip Guard
ALWAYS have the tip guard in place on the spray gun while
spraying. The tip guard alerts you to the fluid injection hazard
and helps reduce, but does not prevent accidentally placing
your fingers or any part of your body close to the spray tip.
Spray Tip Safety
Use extreme caution when cleaning or changing spray tips. If
the spray tip clogs while spraying, engage the gun safety latch
immediately.
ALWAYS
follow the
Pressure Relief Pro
cedure
and then remove the spray tip to clean it.
NEVER wipe off build-up around the spray tip until pressure is
fully relieved and the gun safety latch is engaged.
Pressure Relief Procedure
-- ----- --- - -- �--
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing fluid or solvent in the eyes or on the skin, or injury
from moving parts or electric shock, always follow this procedure whenever you shut off the sprayer, when checking or servic
ing any part of the spray system, when installing, cleaning or changing spray tips, and whenever you stop spraying. (1 l Engage
the gun safety latch. (2) Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF. (3) Unplug the power supply cord. (4) Disengage the gun safety latch.
(5) Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, and trigger the gun to relieve pressure. (6) Engage the
gun safety latch. (7) Open the drain valve, having a container ready to catch the drainage. (8) Leave the drain valve open until
you are ready to spray again.
If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the
steps above,
VERY SLOWLY loosen the tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen
- completely. Now clear the tip or hose.
