Pressure Relief Procedure

INJECTION HAZARD

The system pressure must be manually relieved to pre- vent the system from starting or spraying accidentally. Fluid under high pressure can be injected through the skin and cause serious injury. To reduce the risk of an injury from injection, splashing fluid, or moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you:

are instructed to relieve the pressure

stop spraying

check or service any of the system equipment

install or clean the spray tip

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

When Flushing system, always connect grounding cord.

NOTE: If you suspect that the spray gun or hose is com- pletely clogged, or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the steps above, very slowly loosen the hose end coupling, and relieve pressure gradually. Then loosen it completely. Then clear the valve or hose.
