Grounding

Grounding
The equipment must be grounded. Grounding reduces
the risk of static and electric shock by providing an
escape wire for the electrical current due to static build
up or in the event of a short circuit.

2. Connect the other end of the ground wire to a true
earth ground.
3. Ground the object being sprayed, fluid supply con-
tainer, and all other equipment in the work area. Fol-
low your local code. Use only electrically conductive
air and fluid hoses.
4. Ground all solvent pails. Use only metal pails, which
are conductive, placed on a grounded surface. Do
not place pail on a nonconductive surface, such as
paper or cardboard, which interrupts grounding con-
tinuity.
