A-l HANDGUN
MANUAL NO. 26-4
Page 1-3
l
At atmospheric temperatures below 20°F (-6°C) or above 120°F
(50°C).
l
With hoses enclosed in any material that interferes with heat dis-
sipation. This includes electrical conduit, insulation of any type, or
tight metal covers.
l
With large areas of hose in contact with a cold floor, cold supports
or other such surfaces. Cold points along the hose restrict the flow
of adhesive inside the hose and can create potential problems
during operations.
l
In drafty areas with the applicator guns unshielded from the draft.
Rapid heat dissipation due to air movement across the guns may
cause operational problems.
l
(If a handgun is used) with the handgun trigger left unlocked
while the gun is unattended.
In addition:
l
Use only the metal base when attempting to lift or move an ap-
plicator. DO NOT use equipment covers, doors, panels or hose con-
nectors as braces or grips.
l
NEVER use Nordson equipment as a ladder or stepping stool.
l
Route all hoses to prevent damage from kinking, abrasion and
other physical damage. DO NOT allow a hose to be installed with
a bend radius of less than 6 inches (15.1 cm).
l
NEVER point an applicator handgun at yourself or anyone else.
SAFETY DURING SERVICING
l
DO NOT perform internal service or adjustment on any equip-
ment unless another person capable of rendering first aid and
resuscitation is present.
l
Only qualified personnel should service Nordson equipment.
l
To avoid personal injury, never touch exposed connections and com-
ponents while power is ON. Dangerous voltages exist at several
points in the equipment.
