Foreseen Use of Tool

This product is designed for the purpose of applying liquids in the form
of paint, lacquers, etc. to a surface for the purpose of providing a
decorative or protective finish. It must not be used for or modified for
any other purpose unless first consulting the manufacturer or an
authorised representative.

Work Stations

The spray gun should only be used as a handheld hand-operated
device. It is always recommended that the spray gun is used when
standing on the solid floor. It can be used in other positions provided the
spray gun is kept near vertical and the operator has a firm grip and
footing. Any work station must take account that the liquid being
sprayed should not be breathed in and the liquid can be highly
flammable and spraying should never be undertaken near naked flames
or hot surfaces. Do not smoke. It should also take account that not all of
the liquid being sprayed will be applied to the object being sprayed and
account must be taken that this surplus, i.e. "over spray" will be
deposited in the surrounding area.

Operating

The Spray Gun is a handheld syphon type
compressed air atomising spray gun
suitable for use with most liquids for paint
spray finishing or the application of
surface coatings. It is a non bleeder type
with external mix nozzle air cap assembly
and full control for material application
and spray pattern between round and fan
