Safety Precautions
Be safety-conscious! All local and national regulations
governing ventilation, fire prevention, and operation must be
observed.
HAZARD: Injection injury
A high pressure stream produced by this equipment can
pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading to serious
injury and possible amputation. See a physician immediately.
DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injection can
lead to amputation. See a physician immediately. Inform the physician
of the type of coating material or cleaning agent with which the injury
was caused.
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream. DO NOT
allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.
• NEVER put hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not provide protection
against an injection injury.
• Never point the spray gun at anyone else.
• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the pump off, and release all
pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip or guard, changing tip, or
leaving unattended. Pressure will not be released by turning off the
motor. The PRIME/SPRAY valve must be turned to PRIME to relieve the
pressure. Refer to the Pressure Relief Pressure described in the pump
manual.
• ALWAYS keep the tip guard in place while spraying. The tip guard
provides some protection but is mainly a warning device.
• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning the system.
• The paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking and abuse. A leak
can inject material into the skin. Inspect the hose before each use.
• NEVER use a spray gun without a trigger lock and trigger guard in place
and in good working order.
• All accessories must be rated at or above the maximum operating
pressure range of the airless sprayer. This includes spray tips,
extensions, and hose.
HAZARD: Explosion hazard due to incompatible materials
Will cause severe injury or property damage.
• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.
