allow high pressure spray to be emitted
from the coupling and result in an
injection injury or serious bodily injury.
•
Only use hoses with a spring guard. The
spring guard helps protect the hose
from kinks or other damage which
could result in hose rupture and cause
an injection injury. Do not allow kinking
or crushing of hoses or allow it to vibrate
against rough, sharp or hot surfaces.
•
Use only conductive fluid hoses
for airless applications. Be sure the
gun is grounded through the hose
connections. Use only high pressure
airless hoses with static wire which are
approved for 3000 psi.
•
NEVER
use a damaged hose, which
can result in hose failure or rupture and
cause an injection injury or other serious
bodily injury or property damage.
Before each use, check entire hose
for cuts, leaks, abrasions, bulging of
the cover, or damage or movement
of couplings. If any of these conditions
exist, replace the hose immediately.
•
NEVER
use tape or any device to try to
mend the hose as it cannot contain
the high pressure fluid.
NEVER ATTEMPT
TO RECOUPLE THE HOSE.
A high pressure
hose is not possible to recouple.
GROUNDING
•
G r o u n d t h e s p r a y e r & o t h e r
components in the system to reduce
the risk of static sparking, fire or
explosion which can result in serious
bodily injury and property damage. For
detailed instructions on how to ground,
check your local electrical code.
•
ALWAYS
ensure switch is in OFF position
before plugging unit in.
Always Ground All of These Components:
1. Sprayer:
plug the power supply cord, or
extension cord, each equipped with an
undamaged three-prong plug, into a
properly grounded outlet.
DO NOT USE
AN ADAPTER.
Use only a 3 wire extension
cord that has a grounding plug, and
a receptacle that will accept the
grounding plug on the product. Make
sure your extension cord is in good
condition. When using an extension
cord, be sure to use one heavy enough
to carry the current your product will
draw. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gauge.
2.
Fluid hose:
use only grounded hoses.
3.
S p r a y g u n o r d i s p e n s i n g v a l v e :
g r o u n d i n g i s o b t a i n e d t h r o u g h
connection to a properly grounded
fluid hose and pump.
4.
All solvent pails must be conductive
metal material and properly grounded.
Do not place on a non conductive
insulating surface unless a ground wire
is added to a true earth such as a metal
water pipe.
ALWAYS
ensure fire extinguishing equipment
is readily available and properly
maintained.
