Safety regulations
• Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 21° C (70° F).
Flashpoint is the temperature at which a fluid can produce
enough vapors to ignite.
• Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION HAZARD DuE TO
INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS
Will cause severe injury or property damage.
PREVENTION:
• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.
• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as
methylene chloride and 1,1,1 - trichloroethane. They are not
compatible with aluminum and may cause an explosion. If
you are unsure of a material’s compatibility with aluminum,
contact your coating’s supplier.
HAZARD: HAZARDOuS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials
can be harmful if inhaled or come in contact with
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.
HAZARD: GENERAL
This product can cause severe injury or property
damage.
PREVENTION:
• Read all instructions and safety precautions before operating
equipment.
• Follow all appropriate local, state, and national codes
governing ventilation, fire prevention, and operation.
• Pulling the trigger causes a recoil force to the hand that is
holding the spray gun. The recoil force of the spray gun is
particularly powerful when the tip has been removed and
a high pressure has been set on the airless pump. When
cleaning without a spray tip, set the pressure control knob to
the lowest pressure.
• In case of high operating pressure, pulling the trigger can
effect a recoil force of up to 15 N. If you are not prepared for
this, your hand can be thrust backwards or your balance lost.
This can lead to injury.
• Use only manufacturer authorized parts. User assumes all
risks and liabilities when using parts that do not meet the
minimum specifications and safety devices of the pump
manufacturer.
• 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.
• Clean up all material and solvent spills immediately to prevent
slip hazard.
• ALWAYS follow the material manufacturer’s instructions for
safe handling of paint and solvents.
• Do not use this unit in workshops that are covered under the
explosion prevention regulations.
• Always unplug cord from outlet before working on equipment
(electric units only).
• Always keep the power cord plug in sight during usage to
prevent any accidental shutdown or startup.
• Danger of short circuit through penetrating water! Never
spray down the unit with high-pressure or high-pressure
steam cleaners.
• Wear ear protection. This unit can produce noise levels above
85 dB(A).
• Never leave this equipment unattended. Keep away from
children or anyone not familiar with the operation of airless
equipment.
• Do not move unit while unit is running.
• Do not spray on windy days.
• 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 or lower than 197 k½/m (60
k½/ft.).
i
For reasons of function, safety and durability use
only original WAGNER high-pressure hoses.
1.2
Earthing Instructions
Electric models must be earthed. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, earthing reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a
cord having an earthing wire with an appropriate earthing plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
earthed in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER — Improper installation of the earthing
plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If repair
or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do
not connect the green earthing wire to either blade
terminal. The wire with insulation having a green
outer surface with or without yellow stripes is the
earthing wire and must be connected to the earthing
pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the earthing
instructions are not completely understood, or if you are in doubt as
to whether the product is properly earthed. Do not modify the plug
provided. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
Caution – The power cord for this equipment acts as
an emergency stop/emergency switching off device.
The power cord must be placed near an easily
accessible, unobstructed socket-outlet.
