Warnings
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.
• Engage trigger lock when not spraying.
• Do not point gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
• Do not put your hand over the spray tip.
• Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
• Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
• Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
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:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
• Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric
lamps, and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when
flammable fumes are present.
Ground all equipment in work area. See Grounding instructions.
•
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when triggering into pail.
If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do
•
not use equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
• Keep a fire extinguisher in the work area.
THERMAL EXPANSION HAZARD
Fluids subjected to heat in confined spaces, including hoses, can create a rapid
rise in pressure due to the thermal expansion. Over-pressurization can result in
equipment rupture and serious injury.
• Open a valve to relieve the fluid expansion during heating.
• Replace hoses proactively at regular intervals based on your operating condi-
tions.
PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD
Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocar-
bon solvents or fluids containing such solvents in pressurized aluminum equipment.
Such use can cause serious chemical reaction and equipment rupture, and result in
death, serious injury, and property damage.
