Warnings Warnings The following warnings are for the setup, use, grounding, maintenance, and repair of this equipment. The exclama- tion point symbol alerts you to a general warning and the hazard symbols refer to procedure-specific risks. When these symbols appear in the body of this manual, refer back to these Warnings. Product-specific hazard symbols and warnings not covered in this section may appear throughout the body of this manual where applicable.

Warnings WARNING FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. To help pre- vent 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).

Warnings WARNING EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD Misuse can cause death or serious injury. • Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. • Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system component.
Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information Isocyanates (ISO) are catalysts used in two-component materials. Isocyanate Conditions Spraying or dispensing fluids that contain isocyanates creates potentially harmful mists, vapors, and atomized particulates. • Read and understand the fluid manufacturer’s warnings and Safety Data Sheet (SDS) to know specific haz- ards and precautions related to isocyanates.
Important Isocyanate (ISO) Information Material Self-ignition Foam Resins with 245 fa Blowing Agents Some foam blowing agents will froth at temperatures above 90°F (33°C) when not under pressure, especially if agitated. To reduce frothing, minimize preheating in a circulation Some materials may become self-igniting if applied too thick. system.
