WAGNER HIGH-PERFORMANCE AIRLESS SPRAYER Owner's Manual - Caution

English

HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS -  Paints, solvents,

insecticides, and other materials may be

harmful if inhaled, causing severe nausea,

fainting, or poisoning.

PREVENTION:

• Use a respirator or mask whenever there is a chance that

vapors may be inhaled.  Read all instructions with the

mask to ensure that it will provide the necessary

protection against the inhalation of harmful vapors.

HAZARD: GENERAL - May cause property damage or

severe injury.

PREVENTION:

• Read all instructions and safety precautions before

operating any equipment.

• Comply with all appropriate local, state, and national

codes governing ventilation, fire prevention, and

operation. 

• The United States Government Safety Standards have

been adopted under the Occupational Safety and Health

Act (OSHA).  These standards, particularly part 1910 of

the General Standards and part 1926 of the Construction

Standards should be consulted.

• This high pressure airless pump is designed to be used

with manufacturer authorized parts only.  When using this

pump with parts that do not comply with the minimum

specifications and safety devices of the pump

manufacturer, the user assumes all risks and liabilities.

• Before each use, check all  hoses for cuts, leaks, abrasion

or bulging of cover, as well as damage or movement of

couplings. If any of these conditions exist, replace the

hose immediately.  Never repair a paint hose. Replace it

with another grounded hose.

• All hoses, swivels, guns, and accessories used with this

unit must be pressure rated at or above 2800 PSI.

• Do not spray on windy days.

• Wear protective eyewear.

• Protect skin from contact with toxic spray materials.

Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding

plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the 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.  An

undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss

of power and overheating.  A 14 or 12 gauge cord is

recommended.

NOTE: Do not use more than 100 feet of extension

cord.  If you need to paint further than 100

feet from your power source, use more paint

hose, not more extension cord.  Shorter

extension cords will ensure maximum

electrical power for proper operation.

CAUTION

WARNING

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical

short circuit, grounding reduces the  risk of electric shock by

providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product

is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an

appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an

outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance

with all local codes and ordinances.

Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a

risk of electric shock.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not

connect the green grounding wire to either flat blade terminal.

The wire with insulation having a green outer surface with or

without yellow stripes is the grounding wire and must be

connected to the grounding pin.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if you

are in doubt as to whether the product  is properly grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided.  If the plug will not fit the

outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified

electrician.

This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and has a

grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated below. A

temporary adapter which looks like the adapter illustrated in

the figure below may be used to connect this plug to a 2 pole

receptacle as shown if a properly grounded outlet is not

available. 

The  temporary  adapter should be used only until a properly

grounded outlet as shown below can be installed by a qualified

electrician. The green colored rigid  ear lug or the grounding

wire extending from the adapter must be connected to a

permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box

cover. Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held  in place

by a metal screw.
