4 ProSpray 3.29 • 3.31GBSafety Regulations1. Safety regulations for Airless spraying1.1 Explanation of symbols usedThis manual contains information that must be read and understoodbefore using the equipment. When you come to an area that has oneof the following symbols, pay particular attention and make certainto heed the safeguard.This symbol indicates a potential hazard thatmay cause serious injury or loss of life. Importantsafety information will follow.AttentionThis symbol indicates a potential hazard to youor to the equipment. Important information thattells how to prevent damage to the equipment orhow to avoid causes of minor injuries will follow.Danger of skin injectionDanger of fire from solvent and paint fumesDanger of explosion from solvent, paint fumesand incompatible materialsDanger of injury from inhalation of harmfulvaporsi Notes give important information which shouldbe given special attention.HAZARD: InjEctIon InjuRyAttention: Danger of injury by injection! A highpressure stream produced by this equipment canpierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading toserious injury and possible amputation.Do not treat a spraying injury as a harmless cut. Incase of injury to the skin through coating materialsor solvents, consult a doctor immediately for quickand expert treatment. Inform the doctor about thecoating material or solvent used.PREVEntIon:• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid stream.DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluid hose.• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves will notprovide protection against an injection injury.• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the fluid pump off andrelease all pressure before servicing, cleaning the tip guard,changing tips, or leaving unattended. Pressure will not bereleased by turning off the engine. The PRIME/SPRAY valveor pressure bleed valve must be turned to their appropriatepositions to relieve system pressure.• ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while spraying. The tip guardprovides some protection but is mainly a warning device.• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or cleaning thesystem.• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lock andtrigger guard in place.• All accessories must be rated at or above the maximumoperating pressure range of the sprayer. This includes spraytips, guns, extensions, and hose.HAZARD : HIgH PRESSuRE HoSEThe paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinkingand abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin.Inspect the hose before each use.PREVEntIon:• High-pressure hoses must be checked thoroughly before theyare used.• Replace any damaged high-pressure hose immediately.• Never repair defective high-pressure hoses yourself!• Avoid sharp bends and folds: the smallest bending radius isabout 20 cm.• Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect againstsharp objects and edges.• Never pull on the high-pressure hose to move the device.• Do not twist the high-pressure hose.• Do not put the high-pressure hose into solvents. Use only awet cloth to wipe down the outside of the hose.• Lay the high-pressure hose in such a way as to ensure that itcannot be tripped over.i only use WAgnER original-high-pressure hoses inorder to ensure functionality, safety and durability.HAZARD: EXPLoSIon oR FIRESolvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.Severe injury and/or property damage can occur.PREVEntIon:• Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 21° C (70° F).Flashpoint is the temperature at which a fluid can produceenough vapors to ignite.• Do not use the unit in work places which are covered by theexplosion protection regulations.• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introduction tokeep the air within the spray area free from accumulation offlammable vapors.• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricity sparks,electrical appliances, flames, pilot lights, hot objects, andsparks from connecting and disconnecting power cords orworking light switches.• Do not smoke in spray area.• Place sprayer sufficient distance from the spray object in awell ventilated area (add more hose if necessary). Flammablevapors are often heavier than air. Floor area must beextremely well ventilated. The pump contains arcing partsthat emit sparks and can ignite vapors.• The equipment and objects in and around the spray area mustbe properly grounded to prevent static sparks.• Use only conductive or earthed high pressure fluid hose. Gunmust be earthed through hose connections.• Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit (electricunits only).• Always flush unit into separate metal container, at low pumppressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gun firmly against sideof container to ground container and prevent static sparks.
