Ground the System
WARNING
FIRE
AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Improper grounding could cause static
sparking, which could cause a fire or
explosion. T
o reduce the risk of property
damage or serious injury
, follow the
grounding instructions below
.
The following grounding instructions are minimum
requirements for a system. Y
our system may include
other equipment or objects which must be grounded.
Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding
instructions for your area and type of equipment. Y
our
system must be connected to a true earth ground.
1. Pump/Sprayer:
Ground the pump/sprayer by
connecting a ground wire and clamp between the
pump/sprayer and a true earth ground as in
-
structed in the equipment’
s instruction manual.
2.
Air compressor:
Ground according to the
manufacturer recommendations.
3. Air
and fluid hoses:
Use only grounded hoses
with a maximum of 500 feet (150 m) combined
hose length to ensure grounding continuity
. Check
the electrical resistance of your air and fluid hoses
at least once a week. If the resistance exceeds the
recommended limits, replace the hose immedi
-
ately.
4. Pole gun:
Ground the gun by connecting it to a
properly grounded fluid hose and pump.
5. Fluid supply container:
Ground it according to
local code.
6. Object being sprayed:
Ground it according to
local code.
7. All solvent pails used when flushing:
Ground
them according to local code. Use only metal pails,
which are conductive. Do not place the pail on a
non-conductive surface, such as paper or card
-
board, which interrupts the grounding continuity
.
8. To maintain grounding continuity when flush-
ing or relieving pressure:
Always hold a metal
part of the gun firmly to the side of a grounded
metal pail, then trigger the gun.
