Skin Injection Hazard

Warning

WARNING

High-pressure fluid from gun, hose leaks, 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.

•Do not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.

•Do not put your hand or fingers over the gun fluid nozzle.

•Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove, or rag.

•Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.

•Follow Pressure Relief Procedure, page 13, when you stop spraying and before cleaning, check- ing, or servicing equipment.

•Use lowest possible pressure when flushing, priming, or troubleshooting.

•Engage piston safety lock when not spraying.

•Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.

•Check hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. High pres- sure hose cannot be recoupled; replace the entire hose.

FIRE AND 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 only in well ventilated area.

•Eliminate all ignition sources, such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).

•Do not plug or unplug power cords or turn lights on or off when flammable fumes are present.

•Keep the work area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.

•Ground equipment and conductive objects. See Grounding in Fusion Gun manual 309550 or 309856.

•Hold gun firmly to side of grounded pail when actuating into pail.

•Use only grounded hoses.

•If there is static sparking or you feel a shock, stop operation immediately. Do not use equipment until you identify and correct the problem.

EQUIPMENT MISUSE HAZARD

Misuse can cause serious injury or death.

•For professional use only.

•Use equipment only for its intended purpose. Call your Graco distributor for information.

•Read manuals, warnings, tags, and labels before operating equipment. Follow instructions.

•Check equipment daily. Repair or replace worn or damaged parts immediately.

•Do not alter or modify equipment. Use only Graco parts and accessories.

•Do not exceed the maximum working pressure or temperature rating of the lowest rated system component. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals.

•Use fluids and solvents that are compatible with equipment wetted parts. See Technical Data in all equipment manuals. Read fluid and solvent manufacturer’s warnings.

•Route hoses and cables away from traffic areas, sharp edges, moving parts, and hot surfaces.

•Do not use hoses to pull equipment.

•Comply with all applicable safety regulations.
