Pressure Relief Procedure

WARNING

Skin Injection Hazard

The system pressure must be manually

relieved to prevent 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 fluid injection, splashing fluid, or electric shock, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure whenever you:

are instructed to relieve the pressure

stop spraying

check or service any of the system equipment

or install or clean the spray tip.

1.Turn off all the air to the spray gun except the cylin- der air, which triggers the gun.

2.Turn off the fluid supply to the gun.

3.Trigger the gun into a grounded metal waste con- tainer to relieve the fluid pressure.

4.Open the pump drain valve and all other drain valves in the system, having a waste container ready to catch the drainage. Triggering the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient. Leave the drain valve open until you are ready to spray again

5.Relieve fluid pressure in the fluid supply equipment as instructed in its instruction manual.

6.Close the bleed-type master air valve on the main air supply line to shut off the air. Leave the valve closed until you are ready to spray again.

7.If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is still clogged or that pressure is not fully relieved after fol- lowing the steps above, very slowly loosen the hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Now clear the tip or hose obstruction.
