• Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic
drop cloths (potential static arc).
• 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.
• Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
• Use only grounded hoses.

chemical reaction and equipment rupture. Failure to follow this warning can result in death, serious
injury, or property damage.
• Do not use 1,1,1-trichloroethane, methylene chloride, other halogenated hydrocarbon solvents or
fluids containing such solvents.
• Many other fluids may contain chemicals that can react with aluminum. Contact your material
supplier for compatibility.
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Fluid from the gun/dispense valve, leaks, or ruptured components can splash in the eyes or on skin
and cause serious injury.
• Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or
servicing equipment.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
