•Electrostatic equipment must be used only by trained, qualified personnel who understand the requirements of this manual.
•Ground all equipment, personnel, object being sprayed, and conductive objects in or close to spray area. Resistance must not exceed 1 megohm. See Grounding instructions.
•Only use grounded Graco conductive air supply hoses.
•Do not use pail liners unless they are conductive and grounded.
•Stop operation immediately if static sparking occurs or you feel a shock. Do not use equipment until you identify and correct the problem.
•Check gun resistance, hose resistance, and electrical grounding daily.
•Use and clean equipment only in well ventilated area.
•Interlock the gun air supply to prevent operation unless ventilating fans are on.
•Use cleaning solvents with highest possible flash point when flushing or cleaning equipment.
•To clean the exterior of the equipment, cleaning solvents must have a flash point at least 5°C above ambient temperature.
•Always turn the electrostatics off when flushing, cleaning or servicing equipment.
•Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop cloths (potential static arc).
