usage of the equipment.
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
 KNOW YOUR PAINT SPRAYER. Read the operator's
manual carefully. Learn the machine's applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential hazards related
to this paint sprayer.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction
or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.
This product is equipped with an electric cord having an
equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes
and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the
cord is required, do not connect the grounding wire to
either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having
an outer surface that is green with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
the grounding instructions are not completely understood,
or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 V circuit and has
a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated below. Only
connect the product to an outlet having the same configuration
as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this product.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
 Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near
an open flame or sources of ignition such as cigarettes,
motors, and electrical equipment.
 Use with only water-based or mineral spirit-type
materials with a minimum flash point of 140°F (60°C).
Do not spray or clean with liquids having a flash point
less than 140°F (60°C).
 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. All parts of the spray system, including
the pump, hose assembly, pistol-grip sprayer, and
objects in and around the spray area shall be prop-
erly grounded to protect against static discharge and
sparks.
 Use only conductive or grounded high-pressure airless
paint sprayer hoses specified by the manufacturer.
 Verify that all containers and collection systems are
grounded to prevent static discharge.
 Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded exten-
sion cords. Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
 Do not use a paint or a solvent containing halogenated
hydrocarbons (a solvent containing Fluorine, Bromine,
Chlorine, or Iodine) such as methyl bromine, carbon
tetrachloride, and ethyl iodide.
 Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply
of fresh air moving through the area. Keep pump
assembly in a well ventilated area.
 Do not smoke in the spray area.
 Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark
producing products in the spray area.
 Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers,
rags, and other flammable materials.
 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.
 Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and
working.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of skin injection:
 Do not aim the nozzle at, or spray any person or animal.
 Keep hands and other body parts away from the dis-
charge. For example, do not try to stop leaks with any
part of the body.
 Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without
nozzle tip guard in place.
 Only use a spray tip specified by the manufacturer.
 Use caution when cleaning and changing spray tips.
In the case where the spray tip clogs while spraying,
follow the manufacturer's instructions for turning off
