In order to carry out maintenance, repairs or cleaning, first
disconnect the unit from the compressed air network, after
having correctly carried out the DEPRESSURISATION
procedure described in Section 9 of the Manual.
Never point the unit towards yourself, other personnel or
animals.The thinners and dilution media used can cause
serious injury. With this unit the product is sprayed at a very
high pressure. The stream coming from the gun, from leaks,
or due to the breakage of a component in the unit, could cause
the product to be injected at high pressure under the skin.
LIkewise if the product is sprayed or splashed in the eyes it
can cause serious harm.
Never attempt to stop the application stream or a leak with
your hand or any other part of your body. If you suspect you
may have sprayed the product on your skin, IMMEDIATELY
SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. This incidence must not be
treated as a simple cut. Describe the product with which it
ocurred to the Doctor in as much detail as possible.
The location where work is carried out must have sufficient
ventilation in accordance with current legislation and regulations.
Near the unit, only keep the amount of product and thinner
required for the work being done at that time. After work has
been completed, thinners and the product to be applied must
be returned to their corresponding storage location.
Keep the working area clean and free of potentially dangerous
waste (thinners, rags, etc.) While work is in progress, there
must not be any source of ignition (naked flames, lighted
cigarettes, etc.) in the working area as these might generate
easily flammable gases. Likewise, the approved protective
means must be used (breathing, hearing, etc.) in accordance
with the regulations established in this regard.
If the unit is used in an inadequate manner or its components
are altered in any way, severe material damage may occur
and bodily harm may be caused to the operator, other
personnel and/or animals and may even cause death.

As a general preventive measure we advise you to wear
goggles in accordance with the specific environmental
regulations and characteristics for the work centre.
Use gloves when handling the product (see the manufacturer's
recommendations) and cleaning the gun.
If, when the gun is in use, the ambient noise level exceeds
90 dB. the use of approved hearing protection is
recommended. The gun in itself does not propitiate any
mechanical risk of perforations, impact or pinching, except
those deriving from incorrect installations and handling.

temperature. The maximum operating temperature is 50ºC.
The use of solvents and/or detergents that contain halogenated
hydrocarbons (trichloroethane, methyl chloride, etc.), may
cause chemical reactions in the unit as well as in its zinc-coated
components (trichloroethane mixed with small amounts of
water produces hydrochloric acid). For this reason, these
components may rust and in extreme cases the chemical
reaction caused may be explosive. We recommend you use
products that do not contain the aforementioned components.
Do not use acids, soda (alkalis or pickling substances, etc.)
for cleaning under any circumstances.
