Safety Precautions
This manual contains information that must be read and
understood before using the equipment. When you come to an
area that has one of the following symbols, pay particular
attention and make certain to heed the safeguard.
This symbol indicates a potential hazard that may cause
serious injury or loss of life. Important safety information
will follow.
This symbol indicates a potential hazard to you or to the
equipment. Important information that tells how to prevent
damage to the equipment or how to avoid causes of minor
injuries will follow.
This unit is provided with a thermally protected automatic
reset. If an overload occurs the thermally protected
automatic reset disconnects the motor from the power
supply.
The motor will restart without warning when the protector
automatically resets.
Always disconnect the motor from the power supply
before working on the equipment.
When the thermally protected automatic reset disconnects
the motor from the power supply
, relieve pressure by
turning the priming valve to PRIME.
Turn the ON/OFF switch to OFF.
HAZARD: Injection injury - A high pressure stream
produced by this equipment can pierce the
skin and underlying tissues, leading to serious
injury and possible amputation.
DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A SIMPLE
CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See a physician
immediately.
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTE: Notes give important information which should
be given special attention.
CAUTION
WARNING
The maximum operating range of the unit is 20.7 MPa
(3000 PSI) fluid pressure.
PREVENTION:
NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream.
DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.
NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves will not
provide protection against an injection injury.
ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the fluid pump off and
release all pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip
guard, changing tips, or leaving unattended. Pressure will
not be released by turning off the engine. The
PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valve must be
turned to their appropriate positions to relieve system
pressure. Refer to the PRESSURE RELIEF
PROCEDURE described in this manual.
ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while spraying. The tip
guard provides some protection but is mainly a warning
device.
ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning
the system.
The paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking and
abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin. Inspect
the hose before each use.
NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lock
and trigger guard in place.
All accessories must be rated at or above the maximum
operating pressure range of the sprayer. This includes
spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE - Solvent and paint fumes
can explode or ignite. Severe injury and/or
property damage can occur.
PREVENTION:
Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction to
keep the air within the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors.
Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks,
electrical appliances, flames, pilot lights, hot objects, and
sparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords or
working light switches.
Do not smoke in spray area.
Fire extinguisher must be present and in good working
order.
Place sprayer at least 6.1 m (20 feet) from the spray object
in a well ventilated area (add more hose if necessary).
Flammable vapors are often heavier than air. Floor area
must be extremely well ventilated. The pump contains
arcing parts that emit sparks and can ignite vapors.
The equipment and objects in and around the spray area
must be properly grounded to prevent static sparks.
Use only conductive or earthed high pressure fluid hose.
Gun must be earthed through hose connections.
Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit
(electric units only).
Always flush unit into separate metal container, at low
pump pressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gun firmly
against side of container to ground container and prevent
static sparks.
Follow material and solvent manufacturer's warnings and
instructions.
The unit must be connected to an earthed object. Use the
green earthing wire to connect the unit to a water pipe,
steel beam, or other electrically earthed surface.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It is
important to treat the injury as soon as possible. DO
NOT delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is a
concern with some coatings injected directly into the
blood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon or
reconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.
