Table 1 General Safety Warnings and Cautions
WARNING! Hazardous vapors! Before processing any polyurethane
reactive (PUR) hot melt or solvent‐based material through a compatible
Nordson melter, read and comply with the material's MSDS. Ensure
that the material's processing temperature and flashpoints will not be
exceeded and that all requirements for safe handling, ventilation, first
aid, and personal protective equipment are met. Failure to comply with
MSDS requirements can cause personal injury, including death.
WARNING! Reactive material! Never clean any aluminum component
or flush Nordson equipment with halogenated hydrocarbon fluids.
Nordson melters and applicators contain aluminum components that
may react violently with halogenated hydrocarbons. The use of
halogenated hydrocarbon compounds in Nordson equipment can
cause personal injury, including death.
WARNING! System pressurized! Relieve system hydraulic pressure
before breaking any hydraulic connection or seal. Failure to relieve the
system hydraulic pressure can result in the uncontrolled release of hot
melt or cold adhesive, causing personal injury.
