SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from dispensing device, hose leaks, or ruptured components will pierce skin. This
may look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical
treatment.
•
Do not point dispensing device at anyone or at any part of the body.
•
Do not put your hand over the fluid outlet.
•
Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
•
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop dispensing and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing equipment.
•
Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
•
Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. Paint or
solvent flowing through the equipment can cause static sparking. To help prevent 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 sparking).
•
Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
•
Never spray or flush solvent at high pressure.
•
Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
•
Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes
are present.
•
Use only grounded hoses.
•
Stop operation immediately if static sparking occurs or you feel a shock. Do not use equipment until
you identify and correct the problem.
•
Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
TOXIC FLUID OR FUMES HAZARD
Toxic fluids or fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on skin, inhaled, or
swallowed.
•
Read Safety Data Sheets (SDSs) to know the specific hazards of the fluids you are using.
•
Store hazardous fluid in approved containers, and dispose of it according to applicable guidelines.
