• To reduce the risks associated with chemical exposure, hazardous pressure, fire/explosion, or
environmental contamination:
• Read, understand and follow all safety statements in applicable equipment user's manuals to avoid
possible safety hazards.
• Ensure you are familiar with the controls, functionality, and proper use of the equipment.
• Use only in a well ventilated area.
• Never perform unapproved modifications or maintenance on this product.
• Always comply with local, state, and national laws and regulations governing ventilation, fire
protection, operation, maintenance, and housekeeping. Consult applicable SDS(s) and material
container labels for each material being sprayed in the work area.
• To reduce the risks associated with fire and explosion:
- Ensure VOC concentration is kept below ignition threshold per liquid coating material SDS(s).
- All ignition sources such as smoking or electrical devices must be kept out of the spray area.
- Always maintain a readily available, approved fire extinguisher or other approved fire fighting
equipment in or near the spray area.
- When operating this unit, use only undamaged suitably solvent-resistant and appropriately
pressure-rated static-conductive air hoses.
- Users are expected to comply with local regulations for working in explosive environments and
any requirements for the material to be sprayed (consult material SDS) and use appropriate PPE
for both. [Note: This may include grounding with shoes, heel straps, and static conductive (or
static dissipative) gloves.]
• To reduce the risks associated with chemical exposure, hazardous pressure and impact:
• Do not maintain or service the spray gun other than as instructed in the user's manual.
• If fasteners were removed for hardware maintenance or accessories, ensure that all fasteners are
replaced and tightened before operation.
• To reduce the risks associated with chemical exposure and hazardous pressure:
- Do not use this product around unsupervised children.
- Never point a spray gun at anyone else or place any part of your body in front of the spray gun.
- Before use check spray equipment for damage and proper function. Repair/replace worn,
damaged or malfunctioning components with 3M approved components.
- Ensure the equipment you are using with this product is suitable for the use application.
• To reduce the risks associated with bursting and chemical exposure:
- Do not operate spray gun system without a functional inlet pressure gauge. See pressure
recommendations in user's manual for each spray gun atomizing head.
- Ensure air and liquid input pressure and all applicator system regulators are properly adjusted
per material's recommendations prior to each use. Do not exceed working pressure per
user's manual.
- Always follow required air and liquid pressure relief procedures for relieving air and liquid
pressure from the spray equipment.
