WARNING
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:
•
Sprayer generates sparks. Do not
spray or flush with flammable
liquids.
•
Use only non-flammable or
water-based materials, or
non-flammable paint thinners.
•
Keep spray area well-ventilated.
Keep a good supply of fresh air
moving through the area.

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.
