SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This may look like just
a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical treatment.
•
Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
•
Do not put your hand or fingers over the gun fluid nozzle.
•
Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
•
Do not "blow back" fluid; this is not an air spray system.
•
Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 31, when you stop spraying and before cleaning, check-
ing, or servicing equipment.
•
Use lowest possible pressure when flushing, priming, or troubleshooting.
•
Engage spray gun piston safety lock when not spraying.
•
Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
•
Check hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. High pres-
sure hose cannot be recoupled; replace the entire hose.
FIRE, EXPLOSION AND ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD
Solvent and fumes in work area can ignite or explode. High voltage components can cause electric
shock. To help prevent fire, explosion, and electric shock:
•
Shut off main power switch and wait 5 minutes before opening Reactor cabinet door.
•
All electrical wiring must be done by trained and qualified personnel and comply with all local codes.
•
Ground equipment and conductive objects. See Ground system, page 24.
•
Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
•
Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes and plastic drop cloths (potential static
arc).
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.
•
Keep the work area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
•
Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
•
Use only grounded hoses.
•
If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment
until you identify and correct the problem.
•
To avoid chemical reaction and explosion, do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride,
other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum
equipment.
