WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
High-pressure fluid from spray gun, hose leak, or ruptured
components will pierce skin. This may look like just a cut, but it is a
serious injury that can result in amputation. Get immediate surgical treatment.
•Engage raw material valve lock when not spraying.
•Do not point gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
•Do not put your hand over the spray tip.
•Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
•Turn off the machine when you stop spraying and before
cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
•Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.
•Check hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged
parts immediately.
FIREAND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can
ignite or explode. To help prevent fire and explosion:
•Use equipment in well ventilated areas only.
•Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes,
plastic drop cloths, and portable electric lamps.
•Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and
gasoline.

triggering into pail.
•If there is a static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation
immediately. Do not use equipment until you identify and correct
the problem.
•Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
THERMALEXPANSION HAZARD
Fluid subjected to heat in confined spaces, including hoses, can create
a rapid rise in pressure due to the thermal expansion.
Over-pressurization can result in equipment rupture and
serious injury.
•Open a valve to relieve the fluid expansion during heating.
•Replace hosesproactively at regular intervals based on your
operation conditions.
