explosion:
• Do not spray flammable or com- bustible materials near an open flame or sources of ignition such as cigarettes, motors and electrical equipment.
• Paint or solvent flowing through the equipment is liable to result in static electricity. Static electricity creates a risk of fire or explosion in the presence of paint or solvent fumes. All parts of the spray sys- tem, including the pump, hose assembly, spray gun and objects in and around the spray area should be properly grounded to protect against static discharge and sparks.
