2.2.1 SAFE HANDLING OF WAGNER SPRAY UNITS
2.2.2 EARTH THE UNIT
2.2.3 MATERIAL HOSES
The spray jet is under pressure and can cause dangerous injuries.
Avoid injection of paint or cleaning agents:
Never point the spray gun at people.
Never reach into the spray jet.
Before all work on the unit, in the event of work interruptions and functional faults:
– Switch off the energy/compressed air supply.
– Secure the spray gun against actuation.
– Relieve the pressure from the spray gun and unit.
– By functional faults: Identify and correct the problem, proceed as described in
chapter „Trouble shooting“.
In the event of skin injuries caused by paint or cleaning agents:
Note down the paint or cleaning agent that you have been using.
Consult a doctor immediately.
Avoid danger of injury through recoil forces:
Ensure that you have a firm footing when operating the spray gun.
Only hold the spray gun briefly in any one position.
Depending on the high-voltage of the spray electrode and the flow rate at spray pressures
can produce an electrostatic charge in the equipment. These can cause sparks and flames
upon discharge.
Ensure that the unit is always earthed.
Earth the work pieces to be coated.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are earthed, e.g. that they are wearing
derivable shoes.
When spraying, wear derivable gloves to earth yourself via the spray gun handle.
Ensure that the hose material is chemically resistant to the sprayed materials.
Ensure that the material hose is suitable for the pressure generated in the unit.
Ensure that the following information is visible on the high pressure hose:
– Manufacturer
– Permissible operating overpressure
– Date of manufacture.
The electrical resistance of the complete high pressure hose must be less than 1 MOhm.
