FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help prevent
fire and explosion:

• When spraying oil-based material, use outdoors or in a well-ventilated indoor area with a flow of fresh
air.
• Do not spray or flush with combustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition.
• Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity
creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of paint or solvent fumes.
• Keep sprayer at least 10 in. (25 cm) away from objects while spraying or flushing.
• Verify all containers and collection systems are grounded to prevent static discharge.
