Safety Warnings
HIGH PRESSURE SPRAY CAN CAUSE EXTREMELY SERIOUS INJURY.
INJECTION HAZARD
Fluids under high pressure from spray or leaks can penetrate the skin and cause extremely serious
injury, including the need for amputation.
• NEVER point the spray gun at anyone or any part of the body.
• NEVER put hands or fingers over the spray tip. Do not use a rag or any other material over your fingers. Paint will
penetrate through material and into the hand.
• NEVER try to stop or deflect leaks with your hand or body.
• NEVER try to "blow back" paint, this is not an air spray sprayer.
• ALWAYS have gun tip guard in place when spraying.
• ALWAYS lock gun trigger when you stop spraying.

spray tip or servicing any system equipment.

• ALWAYS tighten all fluid connections before each use.
