System Pressure
The maximum hydraulic input pressure for this reciprocator is
1000 psi (70 bar). The maximum fluid outlet pressure is 3000 psi
(210 bar). Be sure that any components added to the
tor power supply side are rated to withstand this pressure.
ALWAYS read and follow the fluid and solvent manufacturer’s
recommendations regarding the use of protective eyewear,

.
Static electricity is created by the high velocity flow of fluid
through the reciprocator, pump and hose. If the pump is not
properly grounded, sparking may occur, and the system may
become hazardous. Sparks from any source can ignite fumes
from solvents and the fluid being dispensed, dust particles and
other flammable substances, and can cause a fire or explosion
and serious bodily injury and property damage. Do not smoke,
and do not plug in or unplug any power supply cords in the spray
area when there is any chance of igniting vapors still in the air.
If you experience any static sparking or even a slight shock while
using this equipment, STOP SPRAYING IMMEDIATELY Do not
use the system again until the problem has been identified and
corrected.
Grounding
To reduce the risk of static sparking, ground the pump. CHECK
your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for
your area and type of equipment.

Flushing Safety
Reduce the risk of fluid injection injury, static sparking, or
splashing by following the specific flushing procedure given on
page 5. Be sure to relieve pressure and then remove the spray
tip before flushing. Hold a metal pan of the gun firmly to the side
of a grounded metal pail and use the lowest possible fluid pres-
sure during flushing.
