Safety Safety This spray gun was designed and built in accordance with all safety aspects. It corresponds with the present standards of technical regulations and current rules for accident prevention. It left the factory in perfect condition, insuring a high level of safety. However, the following dangers exist if operated incorrectly or used inappro- priately: to life and limb of operator or third...
Safety operation, it is absolutely required to: Shut down the spraying equipment in accordance with the instructions in ➤ ➤ the user's handbook. Release the pressure found in the spray gun and hose. ➤ ➤ Secure the spray gun. ➤ ➤...
Safety Take care to ground the spray gun through contact with the contai- ner in order to prevent a major static discharge. DANGER OF EXPLOSION marks a situation, where there is danger of explosion. Observation of this information is absolutely essential. USE BREATHING PROTECTION For health reasons, it is very important to pay attention to this warn- ing.
Safety Dangers caused by attachments and spare parts If you use original attachments and original spare parts from , the compatibility with our equipment is guaranteed. It is, however, essential that the safety regulations of the attachments and spare parts are observed. You can find these safety regulations in the User’s Handbook located with the spare parts lists.
Safety Safety instructions Observe the following notes: The spray gun must meet or exceed the maximum operational pressure ➤ ➤ of the paint spraying equipment being used. Because of the electrostatic charges produced by spraying, the spray ➤ ➤ gun may only be mounted to conductive hoses. All original hoses are conductive and matched to spray equipment.

Setting-up Place the spray tip into the air cap so that the groove in the tip matches the pin in the air cap (fig. 4.2). This prevents the tip from rotat- ing in the cap. Place the air cap with tip into the spray gun.
Operation Operation Unlock the spray gun. Pressing the lever to the first resistance point activates the atomizing air. Press the lever completely to release the high pressure fluid stream. Take care to maintain contact with the container wall when spraying into metallic containers in order to avoid build-up of a static charge.
