E N
Use appropriate protection devices for personal protection. Wear an activated charcoal respirator and protective eyewear.
Keep children and bystanders away from the unit while in use. You may lose control of the unit if you are distracted. Remove the unit from the com-
pressed air supply before any repair or maintenance work, when interrupting work and before transporting the unit. When disconnecting the hose
from the coupling, hold the hose firmly to prevent injury from the hose being pulled back quickly. When disconnecting the hose from the coupling,
hold the hose firmly to avoid injury caused by rapid hose retraction.
Beware of damage.
Check the device for damage before putting it into operation. If the device shows any defects, do not put it into operation under any circumstances.
Do not bend the hose of the device. The hose will otherwise be damaged.
Always pay attention, watch what you are doing and always work sensibly. Never use a device if you are tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medication. Do not remove the nameplates, these components of the device are essential for safety. If you have no experience with
this device, take a training course to learn how to handle it safely.
Original accessories/additional devices
Use only the accessories and additional equipment specified in the operating instructions. The use of accessories other than those recommend-
ed in the operating instructions may result in a risk of injury to you.
Safety Instructions for Precision Spray Systems
Keep work area clean, well lit and free of containers of paints or solvents, rags and other flammable materials and substances. Possible risk of spontaneous
combustion. Keep fire extinguishers in working order at all times.
Ensure good ventilation in the application area and sufficient fresh air supply throughout the room. Flammable solvents that evaporate create an explosive
environment.
- Do not apply or clean with products or materials with a flash point below 21°C. Use water-based, low-volatility hydrocarbon, or comparable products, mate-
rials or materials. Volatile solvents evaporate and create an explosive environment.
- Do not apply in the area of ignition sources such as static sparks, open flames, ignition flames, hot objects, engines, cigarettes and sparks from connecting
and disconnecting electrical cables or from the use of switches. Such sources of sparks can cause the surrounding area to ignite.
- Do not apply products that you do not know are hazardous. Unknown products can create hazardous conditions.
Wear additional personal protective equipment such as protective gloves and a corresponding mask or respirator when applying or handling chemicals. Wear-
ing protective equipment appropriate for the conditions reduces exposure to hazardous substances.
- Do not apply product to yourself, other people or animals. Keep your hands or other body parts away from the spray. If the spray gets on your skin, seek
medical attention immediately. The spray can penetrate the skin even through a glove and enter your body.
- Do not treat a spray penetration as a simple cut. A high pressure spray can inject toxic substances into the body and cause serious injury. If injected, seek
medical attention immediately.
- Be aware of the various risks and hazards that can be caused by the spray. Observe the markings on the containers or the manufacturer's information on the
spray product, including the requirement to use personal protective equipment. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions to reduce the risk of fire, as well
as the risk of injury from toxins, carcinogens, etc.
- Never spray material without the nozzle head attached. Use of a special nozzle element with a fitted nozzle head reduces the likelihood of toxins being inject-
ed into the body by the high-pressure spray passing through the skin.
Commissioning
Connection of the device
The product may only be operated with clean, condensation-free and oil-free compressed air and a maximum working pressure of 8 bar at the device may not
be exceeded. In order to regulate the air pressure, the compressed air source must be equipped with a pressure reducing valve (with filter). To use this device,
you need a quick-coupling pressure hose and a corresponding compressed air source. Observe the operating and safety instructions of the compressed air
source and the special instructions for paint preparation. Note: Make sure that the working pressure is correct. Too much working pressure leads to too much
fine distribution and too fast evaporation of the liquid. Surfaces become rough and adhesion is poor. On the other hand, if the working pressure is too low, the
paint is not sprayed sufficiently. This results in wavy surfaces and dripping. Connect the quick-coupling pressure hose to the compressed air connection of the
unit. It is automatically locked. Set the working pressure at the filter pressure reducer of the compressed air source to 3 bar.
Preparation of the application surface
Thoroughly and extensively cover the area around the application surface. All uncovered surfaces may otherwise become soiled. Ensure that the application
surface is clean, dry and free of grease. Lightly scrape smooth surfaces and then remove any dust resulting from sanding.
Turning the unit ON/OFF Working instructions: Open the purge while working.
