06. Warnings
Before putting the unit into operation, we recommend that you clean the equipment as this has been
subjected to functional tests and before packaging it is treated internally with a protective coating,
some of which may still remain. Apply solvent to eliminate this. Remove any residual grease applied
during assembly.
The unit is supplied depressurised (without pressure inside).
Before starting up and especially after each cleaning and/or repair procedure, you must check that
the components of the unit are perfectly tightened and that the hoses are technically suited to the
features of the equipment and the work to be carried out, in addition to being flexible and sealed
(without leaks). Faulty parts must be replaced or repaired as appropriate.
Check that the unit's safety devices work properly before using it.
The unit is easy to handle thanks to its design and the simplicity of its mechanisms. Use it according
to the operating, maintenance and safety instructions indicated in this manual and follow the
application methods indicated to obtain the required finish quality.
USE ANTISTATIC AIR HOSES. SHOULD AN ANTISTATIC AIR HOSE NOT BE
AVAILABLE, YOU MUST ATTACH THE UNIT TO A GROUND CONNECTION IN
ORDER TO ELIMINATE ANY STATIC ELECTRICITY.
You must always connect the equipment and all the elements involved in the work process
to a grounding connection to eliminate static electricity. Regularly verify (one a week) its
electrical continuity. If its resistance exceeds the recommended limits, it must be fixed. An
equipment unit without or with a faulty grounding connection may make the installation
dangerous.
The total derivative resistance must be <1 million Ohms (Ω).
Read and carefully apply all the information, instructions and safety measures given by the
manufacturer of the products to be used (products to be applied, solvents, etc.), as chemical
reactions, fire and/or explosions may occur. These may be toxic, irritant or noxious and in any event
are dangerous for the health and wellbeing of the user and the personnel around him (See section
on Health and Safety).
Ensure that the products to be applied are chemically compatible with the components of the
equipment they come into contact with (polyamide, stainless steel, steel, brass, aluminium,
polypropylene, PTFE, fluoroelastomer, polyacetal, NBR).
Do not use corrosive or abrasive products with the standard versions of the equipment.
Mix, prepare and filter the product to be applied in accordance with the
manufacturer's instructions, ensuring that no foreign particles ruin the
quality of the finish and application. Should there be any doubt on the purity
of the product, its composition, etc., please contact your supplier.
Control the viscosity of the product to be applied by means of ELCOMETER
2435 Viscosity Kit.
The exit speed of the product to be transferred is determined depending
on the air pressure, the product viscosity and the diameter of the hose to
be used.
