WARNING

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

Spray from the gun, leaks or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin can also cause serious injury.

DFluid injected into the skin might look like just a cut, but it is a serious injury. Get immediate surgical treatment.

DDo not point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.

DDo not put your hand or fingers over the spray tip.

DDo not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.

DDo not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.

DAlways have the tip guard and the trigger guard on the gun when spraying.

DCheck the gun diffuser operation weekly. Refer to the gun manual.

DBe sure the gun trigger safety operates before spraying.
