 Keep guards in place and in working order. Never
operate the tool with any guard or cover removed. Make
sure all guards are operating properly before each use.
 To reduce the risk of injury, keep children and visitors
away. All visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept
a safe distance from work area.
 Keep the area of operation clear of all persons,
particularly small children, and pets.
 Use right tool. Don't force tool or attachment to do a
job it was not designed for. Don't use it for a purpose not
intended.
 Do not operate the equipment while barefoot or when
wearing sandals or similar lightweight footwear. Wear
protective footwear that will protect your feet and improve

in fluids entering your eyes resulting in possible serious
injury.
 Use only recommended accessories. The use of im-
proper accessories may cause risk of injury.
 Follow the maintenance instructions specified in this
manual.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of the tool, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its
operation. A guard or other part that is damaged must
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center to avoid risk of personal injury.
 Never leave tool running unattended. Turn power off.
Don't leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.
 Follow manufacturer's recommendations for safe
loading, unloading, transport, and storage of
machine.
 Be thoroughly familiar with controls. Know how to stop
the product and bleed pressure quickly.
 Keep tool dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake
fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any sol-
vents to clean tool.
 Do not use tool if switch does not turn it off. Have
defective switches replaced by an authorized service
center.
 Before cleaning, repairing, or inspecting, shut off the
motor, release pressure, and make certain all moving
parts have stopped.
 Avoid dangerous environment. Don't use in damp or
wet locations or expose to rain. Keep work area well
lit.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

4 — English
 Never direct a paint stream toward people or pets,
or any electrical device.
 Never start the machine if ice has formed in any part
of the equipment.
 WARNING: High pressure spray can be dangerous
if subject to misuse. The spray must not be directed
at persons, animals, electrical devices, or the machine
itself.
 Keep away from hot parts.
 Check bolts and nuts for looseness before each use.
A loose bolt or nut may cause serious motor prob-
lems.
 Before storing, allow the product to cool.
 Store in a cool, well-ventilated area, safely away from
spark and/or flame-producing equipment.
 When servicing use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
 Never use the sprayer without a spray tip in-
stalled.
 An injection injury can lead to possible amputation.
See a physician immediately.
 Never put your hand in front of the spray tip when in
use. Gloves will not always provide protection against
an injection injury.
 Wear protective clothing to keep paint off skin and
hair, along with a mask or respirator during use. Paints,
solvents, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or
if they come into contact with the body.
 Always unplug the paint sprayer, shut the unit off
and release pressure before servicing, cleaning
the tip or guard, changing the tip, or leaving unat-
tended.
 Plastic can cause sparks. Never hang plastic to
enclose a spray area. Do not use plastic drop cloths
when spraying flammable materials.
 Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
 Do not attempt to clean or unclog the spray tip with
your finger.
 Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 12 is recommended for an
extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
 Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and
use them to instruct other users. If you loan someone this
tool, loan them these instructions also.
