WARNING

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).

Sprayer generates sparks. When flammable liquid is used in or near the sprayer or for flushing or cleaning, keep sprayer at least 20 feet (6 m) away from explosive vapors.

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

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

Ground equipment and conductive objects in work area. Read Grounding instruc- tions.

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

Keep a fire extinguisher in the work area.

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

Improper grounding, setup, or usage of the system can cause electric shock.

Turn off and disconnect power cord before servicing equipment.

• Use only grounded electrical outlets.

Use only 3-wire extension cords.

Ensure ground prongs are intact on sprayer and extension cords.

Do not expose to rain. Store indoors.

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

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 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.

Engage trigger lock when not spraying.

Follow Pressure Relief Procedure in this manual, when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or servicing equipment.
