A-l HANDGUN
SAFETY DURING SERVICING
(continued)
l
Disconnect, lock out and tag external electrical power before
removing protective panels or replacing electrical components.
l
Remove all jewelry (rings, watches, etc.) before servicing
equipment.
l
If possible, stand on a rubber mat when servicing Nordson equip-
ment. DO NOT work on equipment if standing water is present.
Avoid working in a high-humidity atmosphere. Cover exposed ter-
minals and work areas with rubber sheeting to avoid accidental
contact while the power is ON.
l
Always wear safety glasses, protective gloves and long-sleeved
protective clothing to prevent injury from hot applicator parts,
splashed hot melt adhesive and hot gun surfaces.
l
To prevent serious injury from molten adhesive under pressure, al-
ways relieve system hydraulic pressure (by triggering the gun, for
example) before opening any hydraulic fitting or connection.
l
NEVER use an open torch or drill to clean a nozzle.
-
l
NEVER operate equipment with a known leak in the system.
SAFETY WHEN USING HOT MELT
ADHESIVES/SEALANTS,
SOLVENTS AND REACTIVE MATERIALS
l
Use extreme care when working with molten materials. They
solidify rapidly at high temperatures and present a hazard. Severe
burns can occur if the molten materials come in contact with the
skin. Even when first solidified, they are still hot.
l
Always wear protective clothing and eye protection when handling
molten material or working near equipment containing hot melt
adhesives under pressure.
l
DO NOT use an open flame or uncontrolled heating device to heat
solvents (for example, a small pan on an unregulated hot plate).
l
Avoid a fire hazard by using a controlled heating device to heat sol-
vents (for example, a small deep fat fryer or thermostatically
con-
trolled hot plate).
