WARNING
This symbol alerts you to the possibility of serious
injury or death if you do not follow the instructions.
The wallet-sized warning card provided with this pole gun should be kept with the operator at all times. The card
contains important treatment information should a fluid injection injury occur. Additional cards are available at no
charge from Graco Inc.
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the spray tip, hose leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause
extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin
can also cause serious injury.
D Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate
surgical attention.
D Do not point the spray tip at anyone or any part of the body.
D Do not put hand or fingers over the spray tip, and do not stop or deflect fluid leaks with your hand,
body, glove or rag.
D Do not "blow back" fluid; this is not an air spray system.
D Always have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the in-line valve when spraying.
D Be sure the trigger safety lever operates before operating the in-line valve.
D Lock the trigger safety lever when you stop spraying.
D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 4 when you are instructed to relieve pressure;
stop spraying; check, clean, or service any system equipment; or install or change spray tips.
D Tighten all fluid connections before each use.
D Check the hoses, tubes and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Perma-
nently coupled hoses cannot be repaired.
D Handle and route hoses and tubes carefully. Keep hoses and tubes away from moving parts and
hot surfaces. Do not use the hoses to pull equipment. Do not expose Graco hoses to temperatures
above 150_F (65_C) or below --40_F (--40_C).
TOXIC FLUID HAZARD
Hazardous fluids or toxic fumes can cause a serious injury or death if the fluid is swallowed or
splashed in the eyes or on the skin or if the fumes are inhaled.
D Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using.
D Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose hazardous fluid according to all local,
state and national guidelines.
D Dress appropriately for your application. Wear protective eyewear, noise protection for the ears, a
personal respirator, gloves, and clothing.
RECOIL HAZARD
Due to the high pressure fluid emitted, a strong recoil action may occur when you trigger the pole gun.
If you are unprepared, your hand could be forced back toward your body or you could lose your bal-
ance and fall, resulting in serious injury.
