WARNING
EXPLOSION OR FIRE - Solvent and paint fumes can
explode or ignite, causing property damage and/or
severe injury.
Exhaust and fresh air introduction must be provided to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumula-
tion of flammable vapors.
Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, hot objects, ciga-
rettes, and sparks from connecting and disconnecting
power cords or working light switches.
Fire extinguishing equipment must be present and in
good working order.
Keep the pump away from the spray area to avoid
solvent and paint fumes.
• High velocity flow of material through equipment may
develop static electricity. The equipment being used,
as well as objects in and around the spray area must
be properly grounded to prevent static discharge and
sparks.
Use only conductive or grounded high pressure fluid
hoses for airless applications. Be sure that the gun is
grounded properly through hose connections.
Use extreme caution when spraying paints and other
flammable fluids which have a flashpoint below 70° F
(21° C). A fluid’s flashpoint is the temperature at
which vapors from the fluid could ignite if exposed to a
flame or spark.
Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's safety
precautions and warnings.
When flushing equipment use the lowest possible
pressure.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE TO INCOMPATIBLE
MATERIALS - May cause property damage or severe
injury.
Do not use bleach.
Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents.
Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such as methylene
chloride and 1,1,1 - trichloroethane are not compatible
with aluminum and may cause an explosion. If you are
unsure of a material’s compatibility with aluminum,
contact your coating's supplier.
WARNING
HAZARDOUS VAPORS - Paints, solvents, insecti-
cides, and other materials may be harmful if inhaled,
causing severe nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance
that vapors may be inhaled. Read all instructions with
the mask to ensure that it will provide the necessary
protection against the inhalation of harmful vapors.
WARNING
GENERAL - May cause property damage or severe
injury.
Read all instructions and safety precautions before
operating any equipment.
Comply with all appropriate local, state, and national
codes governing ventilation, fire prevention, and
operation.
The United States Government Safety Standards have
been adopted under the Occupational Safety and
Health Act (OSHA). These standards, particularly part
1910 of the General Standards and part 1926 of the
Construction Standards should be consulted.
This high pressure airless pump is designed to be
used with manufacturer authorized parts only. When
using this pump with parts that do not comply with the
minimum specifications and safety devices of the
pump manufacturer, the user assumes all risks and
liabilities.
Before each use, check all hoses for cuts, leaks,
abrasion or bulging of cover, as well as damage or
movement of couplings. If any of these conditions
exist, replace the hose immediately. Never repair a
paint hose. Replace it with another grounded hose.
All hoses, swivels, guns, and accessories used with
this unit must be pressure rated at or above 2500 PSI.
Do not spray on windy days.
CAUTION
Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade
grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the product. Make sure your extension cord
is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be
sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
A 14 or 12 gauge cord is recommended.
