SPRAY GUN SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the
warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power
tool.
1. Work area safety
a.
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b.
Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c.
Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
d.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
e. Check the maximum pressure rating of any tools or accessories that you intend using with the
compressor. The output pressure of the air from the compressor must be regulated so that it never exceeds
the rated pressure of the tool or accessory.
f. Always wear safety goggles or glasses when using the air compressor. Never point the nozzle of an
accessory towards any part of your body or towards another person.
g. Use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield, ear protection, breathing or respirator mask and
protective clothing.
h. The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual

injury resulting from such cases of misuse.
WARNING!
In the event that an air line is cut or broken, the air supply must be turned off at the
compressor. A broken air line which is not supported is extremely dangerous and can whip around
very quickly, both with the capability of striking people, and blowing foreign particles into the air.
•
Do not attempt to catch the air line but immediately keep bystanders well clear and turn off the air supply to
the hose, turn off the compressor at the On / Off button, and then remove the hose from the compressor.
