power tools that have been maintained badly.
f) Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in
accordance with these instructions and in a fashion
speci ed for this special tool type. Take the working

SAFETY REGULATIONS FOR
AIRLESS SPRAYING
All local safety regulations in force must be observed.
The following safety regulations are to be observed in order to
ensure safe handling of the Airless high-pressure spraying unit.
2.1
FLASH POINT
Only spray coating materials with a ash point
of 21 °C or higher.
The ash point is the lowest temperature at
which vapors develop from the coating mate-
rial. These vapors are su cient to form an in-
ammable mixture over the air above the coat-
ing material.
2.2
EXPLOSION PROTECTION
Do not use the unit in work places which are
covered by the explosion protection regula-
tions. The unit is not designed to be explosion
protected. Do not operate the device in explo-
sive areas (zone 0, 1 and 2). Explosive areas are,
for example, places where paints are stored
and locations in direct proximity to the object
being sprayed. Keep the device at least 3 m
from the object you are spraying.

2.3
DANGER OF EXPLOSION AND FIRE FROM
SOURCES OF IGNITION DURING SPRAYING
WORK
There must be no sources of ignition such as,
for example, open res, lit cigarettes, cigars or
tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot sur-
faces, etc. in the vicinity.
2.4
DANGER OF INJURY FROM THE SPRAY JET
Attention, danger of injury by injection!
Never point the spray gun at yourself, other
persons or animals.
Only use the spray gun with spray jet touch
protection.
The spray jet must not come into contact
with any part of the body.
In working with Airless spray guns, the high
spray pressures arising can cause very dan-
gerous injuries. If contact is made with the
spray jet, coating material can be injected
into the skin. Do not treat a spray injury as a
harmless cut. In case of injury to the skin by
coating material or solvents, consult a doctor
for quick and correct treatment. Inform the
doctor about the coating material or solvent
used.
2.5
SECURE SPRAY GUN AGAINST UNINTENDED
OPERATION
Always secure the spray gun when mounting or dismounting
the tip and in case of interruption to work.
2.6
RECOIL OF SPRAY GUN
When using a high operating pressure, pull-
ing the trigger guard can e ect a recoil force
up to 15 N.
If you are not prepared for this, your hand can
be thrust backwards or your balance lost. This
can lead to injury.
2.7
BREATHING EQUIPMENT AS PROTECTION
AGAINST SOLVENT VAPORS
Wear breathing equipment during spraying work.
