This user information sheet is intended to help you understand the types of materials that can and cannot be used with your sprayer.

Before using this equipment, be sure to read and follow the information on your container label and ask for a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). The container label and MSDS will explain the contents of the material and the specific precautions related to it.

OIL-BASED:The container label should indicate that the material is combustible and can be cleaned up with mineral spirits or paint thinner. The MSDS must indicate that the flash point of the material is above 100° F. Your sprayer is compatible with this type of material. Use oil-based material outdoors or in a well-ventilated indoor area with a flow of fresh air. See the safety warnings in your Operation Manual.

FLAMMABLE: This type of material contains flammable solvents such as xylene, toluene, naphtha, MEK, lacquer thinner, acetone, denatured alcohol, and turpentine.
