The equipment must be installed on a horizontal, stable and flat ground
(eg concrete slab).
Non-moving equipment must be secured by suitable fixing devices (spit,
screws, bolts, etc.) to ensure its stability during use.
To avoid risks due to static electricity, the equipment and its components
must be grounded.
For pumping equipment (pumps, elevators, chassis, etc.), a
2.5 mm section wire is attached to the equipment. Use this
wire to connect the equipment to the general "earth". In
severe environments (mechanical protection of the ground
wire, vibrations, moving equipment, etc.) where damage to
the grounding function is likely, the user will have to replace
the wire of 2, 5 mm supplied, by a device more adapted to
its environment (wire of greater section, braid of mass, fixing
by lug with eyelet ...).
Have the earth continuity checked by a qualified
electrician. If earth continuity is not assured, check terminal,
wire and grounding point. Never operate the equipment
without solving this problem.
The gun must be "grounded" through the fluid hose. When
spraying from a gun, the fluid hose must be conductive.
The materials to be painted must also be "grounded" by
means of clamps with cables or, if they are suspended, by
means of hooks which must remain permanently clean.
Note: all objects in the work area must also be grounded.
