Flushing Sprayer

Use only water-based or mineral spirit-type materials with flash point greater than 100° F (38° C). Do not use materials which state “FLAMMABLE” on the packaging.

For more information about your material, request MSDS from distributor or retailer.

Spraying certain materials may cause static build-up in the sprayer that can result in static shock to the user. If this occurs, first ensure the material has a flash point greater than 100° F (38° C) and does not state that it is FLAMMABLE anywhere on the package. If still feeling a static shock, the material likely contains a non-mineral spirits fluid such as, but not limited to, xylene, toluene, or naphtha, which can build up static. Switch to an alterna- tive material.

Use oil-based material outdoors or in a well-ventilated indoor area with a flow of fresh air.

Keep spray area well-ventilated. Keep a good supply of

fresh air moving through the area.

Do not submerge the sprayer in cleaning fluid. Openings in shroud allow cooling of mechanical parts and electron- ics inside. If water gets into these openings, the sprayer could malfunction or become permanently damaged.

1.Engage trigger lock and pull relief valve UP to release pressure.
