This symbol indicates a hazardous situation, which, if
not not avoided could result in death or serious
injury.
To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electrical
shock and the injury to persons, read and understand
all instructions included in this manual. Be familiar
with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.
WARNING: INJECTION INJURY
A high pressure paint stream produced by this
equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues,
leading to serious injury and possible amputation. See
a physician immediately.
DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE CUT!
Injection can lead to amputation. See a physician immediately.
The maximum operating range of the sprayer is 3300 PSI / 22.8
MPa fluid pressure.
PREVENTION:
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream. DO
NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.
• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not
provide protection against an injection injury.
• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the pump off, and release
all pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip or guard,
changing tip, or leaving unattended. Pressure will not be
released by turning off the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve
or pressure bleed valve must be turned to their appropriate
positions to relieve system pressure. Refer to the
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE described in this manual.
• ALWAYS keep the tip guard in place while spraying. The tip
guard provides some protection but is mainly a warning device.
• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning the
system.
• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking and abuse.
A leak can inject material into the skin. Inspect the hose
before each use. Do not use hose to lift or pull equipment.
• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lock and
trigger guard in place.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 3300 PSI / 22.8
MPa. This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.
• Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while
unattended. When the unit is not in use, turn off the unit and
relieve the pressure in accordance with the PRESSURE
RELIEF PROCEDURE described in this manual.
• Verify that all connections are secure before operating the
unit. Unsecured parts may eject at great force or leak a high
pressure fluid stream causing severe injury.
• Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the
trigger lock is functioning properly.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN: Injection into the skin is a traumatic
injury. It is important to treat the injury as soon as
possible. DO NOT delay treatment to research toxicity.
Toxicity is a concern with some coatings injected directly
into the blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon
or reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
WARNING: HAZARDOUS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials can be
harmful if inhaled or come in contact with the body.
Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be inhaled.
Read all instructions supplied with the mask to be
sure it will provide the necessary protection.
• Wear protective eyewear.
• Wear protective clothing as required by coating manufacturer.
WARNING: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite. Property
damage and/or severe injury can occur.
PREVENTION:
• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to keep the
air within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable
vapors. Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.
• Do not spray in a confined area.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric sparks,
open flames, pilot lights, electrical appliances, and hot
objects. Connecting or disconnecting power cords or working
light switches can make sparks. Paint or solvent flowing
through the equipment is able to result in static electricity.
• Do not smoke in spray area.
• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working order.
• Place pump at least 25 feet (7.62 meters) from the spray
object in a well ventilated area (add more hose if necessary).
Flammable vapors are often heavier than air. Floor area must
be extremely well ventilated. The pump contains arcing parts
that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.
• The equipment and objects in and around the spray area
must be properly grounded to prevent static sparks.
• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags
and other flammable materials.
• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid hose.
Gun must be grounded through hose connections.
• For electric units — power cord must be connected to a
grounded circuit.
• Always flush unit into a separate metal container, at low pump
pressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gun firmly against side
of container to ground container and prevent static sparks.
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's warnings and
instructions. Know the contents of the paints and solvents
being sprayed. Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
and container labels provided with the paints and solvents.
Follow the paint and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
• Use extreme caution with liquids having a flash point of less
than 21ºC (70ºF). Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid
can produce enough vapors to ignite.
• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to
enclose a spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when
spraying flammable materials.
• Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.
• Do not spray onto pump assembly.
WARNING: EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE TO
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS
Will cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION:
• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.
• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as
bleach, mildewcide, methylene chloride and 1,1,1 -
trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum.
• Contact your coating supplier about the compatibility of
material with aluminum.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
•
Read all safety information
before operating the equipment. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
