Hazard: Hazardous Vapors; Compressor Safety - Titan PowrCoat Série Mode D'emploi

HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Flammable vapors, such as solvent and paint vapors,
in work area can ignite or explode.
PREVENTION:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area. Keep a good
supply of fresh air moving through the area to keep the air
within the spray area free from accumulation of flammable
vapors. Keep pump assembly in well ventilated area. Do not
spray pump assembly.
• Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes,
portable electric lamps and plastic drop cloths (potential static
arc).
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and
gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light
switches on or off when flammable vapors are present.
• Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area.
Make sure the grounding cable is connected from the
grounding lug to a true earth ground.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Hold spray gun firmly to the side of a grounded pail when
triggering into pail.
• If there is static sparking or if you feel a shock, stop operation
immediately.
• Know the contents of the paint and solvents being sprayed.
Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container
labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint
and solvent manufacturer's safety instructions.
• Do not use a paint or solvent containing halogenated
hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine, bleach mildewcide,
methylene chloride and trichloroethane. They are not
compatible with aluminum. Contact the coating supplier
about compatibility of material with aluminum.
• Keep a fire extinguisher in work area.

HAZARD: HAZARDOuS VAPORS

Paints, solvents, and other materials can be harmful
if inhaled or come in contact with body. Vapors can
cause severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Wear respiratory protection when spraying. Read all
instructions supplied with the mask to be sure it will provide
the necessary protection.
• All local regulations regarding protection against hazardous
vapors must be observed.
• Wear protective eyewear.
• Protective clothing, gloves and possibly skin protection cream
are necessary for the protection of the skin. Observe the
regulations of the manufacturer concerning coating materials,
solvents and cleaning agents in preparation, processing and
cleaning units.

HAZARD: GENERAL
This product can cause severe injury or property
damage.
PREVENTION:
• Follow all appropriate local, state, and national codes
governing ventilation, fire prevention, and operation.
• Pulling the trigger causes a recoil force to the hand that is
holding the spray gun. The recoil force of the spray gun is
particularly powerful when the tip has been removed and
a high pressure has been set on the airless pump. When
cleaning without a spray tip, set the pressure control knob to
the lowest pressure.
• Use only manufacturer authorized parts. User assumes all
risks and liabilities when using parts that do not meet the
minimum specifications and safety devices of the pump
manufacturer.
• ALWAYS follow the material manufacturer's instructions for
safe handling of paint and solvents.
• Clean up all material and solvent spills immediately to prevent
slip hazard.
• Wear ear protection. This unit can produce noise levels above
85 dB(A).
• Never leave this equipment unattended. Keep away from
children or anyone not familiar with the operation of airless
equipment.
• Device weighs in excess of 36 kg. Three-person lift is required.
• Do not spray on windy days.
• The device and all related liquids (i.e. hydraulic oil) must be
disposed of in an environmentally friendly way.

Compressor Safety

PowrCoat units are Air-Powered (powered by an air compressor).
Follow all safety precautions given by the compressor manufacturer
regarding electrical and general safety.
Locate the compressor outside the immediate spraying area to avoid
clogged air intake of the compressor with overspray.
If lacquer or other flammable materials are to be
sprayed, ALWAyS locate the compressor outside the
immediate spraying area. Failure to do so may cause
an explosion.
PowrCoat units are equipped with an internal relief valve that is set
to automatically release air pressure if regulated air pressure exceeds
105 PSI (7.2 bar). A slight bleed in pressure may occur in the relief
valve as regulated air pressure nears 105 PSI (7.2 bar).
If the the relief valve activates, decrease the pressure on the unit's air
regulator by turning it counter-clockwise. This action will reset the
relief valve.
