WARNING
SKIN INJECTION HAZARD
Spray from the spray gun/dispense valve, hose leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin can also cause serious injury.
DFluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate surgical treatment.
DDo not point the gun/valve at anyone or at any part of the body.
DDo not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip/nozzle.
DDo not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.
DDo not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.
DAlways have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the spray gun when spraying.
DCheck the gun diffuser operation weekly. Refer to the gun manual.
DBe sure the gun/valve trigger safety operates before spraying/dispensing.
DLock the gun/valve trigger safety when you stop spraying/dispensing.
DFollow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 whenever you: are instructed to relieve pres- sure; stop spraying/dispensing; clean, check, or service the equipment; and install or clean the spray tip/nozzle.

DCheck the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn, damaged, or loose parts immediately. Permanently coupled hoses cannot be repaired; replace the entire hose.
DUse only Graco approved hoses. Do not remove any spring guard that is used to help protect the hose from rupture caused by kinks or bends near the couplings.
