safety precautions
PL3500
hAzArD: hIgh preSSure hoSe
The paint hose can develop leaks from wear,
kinking and abuse. A leak can inject material into
the skin. Inspect the hose before each use.
preveNTIoN:
•
Avoid sharp bending or kinking of the high-pressure hose.
The smallest bending radius amounts to about 8” (20 cm).
•
Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect against
sharp objects and edges.
•
Replace any damaged high-pressure hose immediately.
•
Never repair damaged high-pressure hoses yourself!
•
Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pressure
hose is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this
reason the electric resistance between the connections of
the high-pressure hose must be equal to or lower than
1MΩ.
•
For reasons of function, safety and durability use only
original Titan high-pressure hoses.
•
Before each use, check all hoses for cuts, leaks, abrasion
or bulging of cover. Check for damage or movement of
couplings. Immediately replace the hose if any of these
conditions exist. Never repair a paint hose. Replace it with
another earthed high-pressure hose.
•
Make sure power cord, air hose and spray hoses are routed
in such a manner to minimize slip, trip and fall hazard.
hAzArD: exploSIoN or fIre
Flammable vapors, such as solvent and paint
vapors, in work area can ignite or explode.
preveNTIoN:
•
Use equipment only in well ventilated area. Keep a good
supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air
within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable
vapors. Keep pump assembly in well ventilated area. Do
not spray pump assembly.
•
Gas models only - Do not fill fuel tank while engine is
running or hot; shut off engine and allow to cool. Fuel is
flammable and can ignite or explode if spilled on a hot
surface.
•
Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes,
portable electric lamps and plastic drop cloths (potential
static arc).
•
Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and
gasoline.
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light
switches on or off when flammable vapors are present.
•
Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area.
Make sure grounding chain is in place and reaches the
ground.
•
Use only grounded hoses.
•
Hold spray gun firmly to the side of a grounded pail when
triggering into pail.
•
If there is static sparking or if you feel a shock, stop
operation immediately.
•
Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed.
Read all material Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and container
labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the
paint and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
•
Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated
hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine, bleach, mildewcide,
methylene chloride and trichloroethane. They are not
compatible with aluminum. Contact the coating supplier
about compatibility of material with aluminum.
•
Keep a fire extinguisher in work area.
