Pressure Relief Procedure
Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you see this symbol.
System Requirements
Pressure drain valves are recommended in the system; they assist in relieving fluid pressure in the displacement pump, hose and gun in the event that the gun is clogged and triggering the gun does not relieve all pressure.
Ground the System
The equipment must be grounded to reduce the risk of static sparking. Static sparking can cause fumes to ignite or explode. Grounding provides an escape wire for the electric current.
Ground the pump and all other equipment used or located in the spray area. Check your local electrical code for detailed grounding instructions for your area and type of equipment. Follow the grounding instruc- tions provided in your pump or sprayer manual. Ground the gun through connection to a properly grounded fluid hose and pump or sprayer.
Gun Trigger Lock
1.To engage the gun trigger lock, rotate the lock so it is perpendicular to the gun body. See FIG. 1.
2.To disengage the gun trigger lock, push the lock out and rotate it so it is parallel with the gun body. See FIG. 1.
This equipment stays pressurized until pressure is manually relieved. To help prevent serious injury from pressurized fluid, such as skin injection, splashing fluid and moving parts, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure when you stop spraying and before cleaning, checking, or servicing the equipment.
1.Engage the gun trigger lock.
2.Shut off power to the pump.
3.Disengage the gun trigger lock.
4.Hold a metal part of the gun firmly to a grounded metal pail. Trigger the gun to relieve pressure.
5.Engage the gun trigger lock.
6.Open the system drain valve, having a container ready to catch the drainage. Observe the pressure gauge. The gauge reads 0 psi/bar when fully drained. Close the system drain valve.
7.If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is com- pletely clogged or that pressure has not been fully relieved after following the previous steps, very slowly loosen the tip guard retaining nut or hose end coupling to relieve pressure gradually. Clean the tip or hose obstruction.
