To reduce risk of fire or explosion:
1.Do not spray flammable or com- bustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition such as cigarettes, motors, and electrical equipment.
2.Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is able to result in static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in the pres- ence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray system, including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun, and objects in and around the spray area shall be properly grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks. Use only conductive or ground- ed
3.Verify that all containers and collec- tion systems are grounded to pre- vent static discharge.
4.Connect your sprayer to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension cords. Do not use a 3 prong to 2 prong adapter.
5.Do not use paints or solvents con- taining halogenated hydrocarbons such as methyl bromine, carbon tetrachloride, and ethyl iodine.
6.Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of fresh air moving through the spray area.
7.Do not smoke or eat in the spray area.
8.Do not operate light switches, engines, or similar spark producing products in the spray area.
9.Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.
10.Know the contents of the paints and solvents being sprayed. Read all Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
11.Do not use materials with a flash point less than 20°C (70°F) in or to clean this equipment. (Examples of
acceptable cleaning solvents are: water, mineral spirits, lacquer thin- ner, Xylene and high flash naphtha. A PARTIAL example list of unaccept- able cleaning solvents are low flash naphtha, mek, acetone, alcohol, toluene and fuels of any kind.
12.Have fire extinguisher equipment present and working.
To reduce the risk of skin injection:
1.Do not aim the gun at, or spray, any per- son or animal.
2.Keep hands and other body parts away from the discharge. For exam- ple, do not try to stop leaks with any part of the body.
3.Always use the nozzle tip guard. Do not spray without nozzle tip guard in place.
4.Do not remove tip while cleaning the pump.
5.Only use a nozzle tip specified by the manufacturer.
6.Use caution when cleaning and changing nozzle tips. Before remov- ing the nozzle tip, follow the manu- facturer’s instructions for turning off the unit and relieving the pressure.
7.Do not leave the unit energized or under pressure while unattended. When not in use turn off the unit and relieve the pressure in accor- dance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

9.Check parts for signs of damage. Replace any damaged parts.
10.This spray gun is rated for 3000 psi (205 bar). Do not use on systems designed to produce more than 3000 psi (205 bar).
