the correct parts, unscrew, realign, and secure properly in matching parts.
WARNING
CAUTION
SOME DUST CREATED BY PAINT SPRAYING, POWER SANDING, SAWING,
GRINDING, DRILLING, AND OTHER RELATED ACTIVITIES KNOWN TO THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA TO CAUSE CANCER, BIRTH DEFECTS, AND OTHER
REPRODUCTIVE HARM. A LISTING OF CHEMICALS CAN BE OBTAINED FROM
www.oehha.ca.gov UNDER PROPOSITION 65. SOME EXAMPLES OF THESE
CHEMICALS ARE:
YOUR RISK FROM THESE EXPOSURES VARIES, DEPENDING ON HOW OFTEN
YOU DO THIS TYPE OF WORK. TO REDUCE YOUR EXPOSURE TO THESE
CHEMICALS WORK IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA, AND WORK WITH
WHICH ARE SPECIALLY DESIGNED TO FILTER MICROSOPIC PARTICLES.

APPROVED SAFETY EQUIPMENT, SUCH AS A RESPRIATOR OR DUST MASKS
Use proper respirator whenever possible, or if there is a chance of inhaling sprayed
materials. The mask must be compatible with the materials being sprayed. Contact the
materials supplier for further details.
Solvent and coating can be highly combustible especially when sprayed.
Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep air free of flammable vapors.
Do not smoke in or near work area.
Always keep a fire extinguisher present in the work area.
Never spray near sources of ignition such sources such as pilot lights, welders, etc.
Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents, and methylene chloride, are not chemically
compatible with the aluminum that might be used in may spray system components.
The chemical reaction caused by these solvents reacting with aluminum can become
dangerous and lead to equipment failure and or equipment explosion.
Guns with stainless steel fluid passages may be used with these solvents; however
aluminum is widely used in other spray applications such as material pumps, cups, and
regulators, valves etc. Check all other equipment items before use and make sure they
can also be safely used with these solvents. Read the label or material safety data
sheet for the materials you intend to spray.
Operators and maintenance personnel must be physically able to handle the bulk
weight, and power of the tool.
This tool is not intended for using in explosive atmospheres and is not insulated for
contact with electrical power sources.
