TwinControl Electronically Controlled 2K Systems 4 Basic Safety Instructions 4 BASIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 4.1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR 4 Keep this operating manual at hand near the device at all times. 4 Always follow local regulations concerning occupational safety and accident prevention regulations.
TwinControl Electronically Controlled 2K Systems 4 Basic Safety Instructions 4 Ensure that all persons within the working area wear static dissipative shoes. Footwear must comply with EN 20344. The measured insulation resistance must not exceed 100 MΩ. 4 Ensure that during spraying, persons wear static dissipative gloves. The grounding takes place via the spray gun's handle or its trigger.
4 In the event of functional faults, remedy the fault as described in the Troubleshooting chapter 4 If needed, the liquid ejection devices must be checked by experts (e.g., WAGNER service technician) at least every 12 months for their work-safe condition in accordance with DGUV regulation 100-500 Chapter 2.29 and Chapter 2.36.
TwinControl Electronically Controlled 2K Systems 4 Basic Safety Instructions 4 Wear static dissipative gloves when spraying. The grounding takes place via the spray gun's handle or its trigger. 4.2.4 Product Hoses Danger due to bursting of product hose! The product hose is under pressure and may cause dangerous injuries. 4 Ensure that the hose material is chemically resistant to the sprayed products and the flushing agents used.
TwinControl Electronically Controlled 2K Systems 4 Basic Safety Instructions 4 Never use chloride or halogenated solvents (such as trichloroethane and methylene chloride) with devices containing aluminium or galvanized/zinc-plated parts. They may react chemically thus producing an explosion danger. 4 Take measures for workplace safety. 4 It should be noted that when the device is put into operation or emptied: depending on the coating product used, depending on the rinsing agent (solvent) used, there may briefly be a mixture inside the pipes and equipment which can ignite.
TwinControl Electronically Controlled 2K Systems 4 Basic Safety Instructions 4 Only a WAGNER service center or a suitably trained person may carry out repairs and replace parts. 4 Repair or replacement of devices or parts of devices are only allowed to be performed outside the hazard area by qualified personnel.
