Warning
WARNING
Fluid Injection Hazard
Spray from the gun, hose leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause an extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Splashing fluid in the eyes or on the skin can also cause serious injury.
•Fluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but is a serious injury. Get immediate medical attention.
•Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body. Do not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip. Do not stop or deflect fluid leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.
•Never spray without the tip guard in place.
•Lock the trigger safety when you stop spraying.
•Follow the “Pressure Relief Procedure”, page 25, when you stop spraying and before clean- ing, checking, or repairing equipment.
•Check the hoses and couplings daily. Replace worn, damaged, or loose parts immediately. Per- manently coupled hoses cannot be repaired; replace the entire hose.
•Tighten all fluid connections before each use.
Toxic Fluid Hazard
Hazardous fluids or toxic fumes can cause a serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin, swallowed, or inhaled.
•Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using. Read the fluid manufacturer’s warnings.
•Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of the hazardous fluid according to all local, state, and national guidelines.
•Wear appropriate protective clothing, gloves, eyewear, and respirator.
