PLASTIC PARTS CLEANING SOLVENT HAZARD
Many cleaning solvents can degrade plastic parts and cause them to fail, which could cause serious
injury or property damage.
• Use only compatible solvents to clean plastic structural or pressure-containing parts.
• See Technical Specifications in all equipment manuals for materials of construction. Consult the
solvent manufacturer for information and recommendations about compatibility.
PRESSURIZED EQUIPMENT HAZARD
Fluid from the equipment, 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/dispensing and before cleaning,
checking, or servicing equipment.
• Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
• Check fluid lines and connections daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately.
PRESSURIZED ALUMINUM PARTS HAZARD
Use of fluids that are incompatible with aluminum in pressurized equipment can cause serious
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.
• Do not use chlorine bleach.
• Many other fluids may contain chemicals that can react with aluminum. Contact your material
supplier for compatibility.
THERMAL EXPANSION HAZARD
Fluids subjected to heat in confined spaces, including fluid lines, can create a rapid rise in pressure
due to the thermal expansion. Over-pressurization can result in equipment rupture and serious injury.
• Open a valve to relieve the fluid expansion during heating.
• Replace fluid lines proactively at regular intervals based on your operating conditions.
