Safety Precautions
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
A. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS – To reduce the risks of fire
or explosion, electrical shock, and the injury to persons, read
and understand all instructions included in this manual. Be
familiar with the controls and the proper usage of the
equipment.
B. WARNING – To reduce the risk of fire or explosion:
1. Do not spray flammable or combustible materials near an open flame,
pilot lights or sources of ignition such as hot objects, cigarettes,
motors, electrical equipment and electrical appliances. Avoid creating
sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords.
2. Use extreme caution when using materials with a flashpoint below
70ºF (21ºC). Flashpoint is the temperature that a fluid can produce
enough vapors to ignite.
3. Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in
static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in
the presence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system,
including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun and objects in and
around the spray area shall be properly grounded to protect against
static discharge and sparks. Use only conductive or grounded high-
pressure airless paint sprayer hoses specified by the manufacturer.
4. Verify that all containers and collection systems are grounded to
prevent static discharge.
5. Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension cords
(electric models only). Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
6. Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated hydrocarbons.
Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide, methylene chloride and
trichloroethane. They are not compatible with aluminum. Contact the
coating supplier about compatibility of material with aluminum.
7. Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air
moving through the area to keep the air within the spray area free
from accumulation of flammable vapors. Keep pump assembly in well
ventilated area. Do not spray pump assembly.
8. Do not smoke in the spray area.
9. Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing
products in the spray area.
10. Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and
other flammable materials.
11. Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed. Read
all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels
provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvent
manufacture's safety instructions.
12. Place pump at least 25 feet (7.62 meters) from the spray object in a
well ventilated area (add more hose if necessary). Flammable vapors
are often heavier than air. Floor area must be extremely well ventilated.
The pump contains arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.
13. Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic to enclose spray
area. Do not use plastic drop cloths when spraying flammable
material.
14. Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working.
C. WARNING – To reduce the risk of skin injection:
HAzARd:
Injection Injury - A high pressure fluid stream produced by this
equipment can pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to a
serious injury and possible amputation. See a physician immediately.
dO NOT TREAT AN INjECTION INjURY AS A SIMPlE CUT.
1. Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or animal.
2. Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For
example, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.

3. Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without the nozzle tip
guard in place.
4. Only use a nozzle tip specified by the manufacturer.
5. Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. In the case
where the nozzle tip clogs while spraying,
ALWAYS lock gun trigger, shut pump off, and release all pressure
before servicing, cleaning tip or guard, or changing tip. Pressure will
not be released by turning off the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve
handle must be turned to PRIME to relieve the pressure. Refer to
PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE described in the pump manual.
6. Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while unattended.
When the unit is not in use, turn off the unit and relieve the pressure in
accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
7. High-pressure spray is able to inject toxins into the body and cause
serious bodily injury. In the event that injection occurs, seek medical
attention immediately.
8. Check hoses and parts for signs of damage, a leak can inject material
into the skin. Inspect hose before each use. Replace any damaged
hoses or parts.
9. This system is capable of producing 3600 PSI / 25 MPa. Only
use replacement parts or accessories that are specified by the
manufacturer and that are rated a minimum of 3600 PSI. This includes
spray tips, nozzle guards, guns, extensions, fittings, and hose.
10. Always engage the trigger lock when not spraying. Verify the trigger
lock is functioning properly.
11. Verify that all connections are secure before operating the unit.
12. Know how to stop the unit and bleed pressure quickly. Be thoroughly
familiar with the controls. Pressure will not be released by turning off
the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve handle must be turned to PRIME
to relieve the pressure. Refer to PRESSURE RELIEF PROCEDURE
described in the pump manual.
13. Always remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning the system.
d. WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury:
1. Always wear appropriate gloves, eye protection, clothing and a
respirator or mask when painting. Hazardous vapors – Paints,
solvents, insecticides, and other materials can be harmful if inhaled or
come in contact with body. Vapors can cause severe nausea, fainting
or poisoning.
2. Do not operate or spray near children. Keep children away from
equipment at all times.
3. Do not overreach or stand on an unstable support. Keep effective
footing and balance at all times.
4. Stay alert and watch what you are doing.
5. Do not operate the unit when fatigued or under the influence of drugs
or alcohol.
6. Do not kink or over-bend the hose. Airless hose can develop leaks
from wear, kinking and abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin.
7. Do not expose the hose to temperatures or pressures in excess of
those specified by manufacturer.
8. Do not use the hose as a strength member to pull or lift the equipment.
9. Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.
10. Follow all appropriate local, state and national codes governing
ventilation, fire prevention and operation.
11. The United States Government Safety Standards have been adopted
under the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA). These
standards, particularly part 1910 of the General Standards and part
1926 of the Construction Standards should be consulted.
12. Before each use, check all hoses for cuts, leaks, abrasion or bulging
of cover. Check for damage or movement of couplings. Immediately
replace hose if any of those conditions exist. Never repair a paint hose.
Replace with a conductive high-pressure hose.
13. Do not spray outdoors on windy days.
14. Always unplug cord from outlet before working on equipment.
