24 ProSpray 3.39GBSafety Regulations1. Safety regulations for AirlesssprayingThis manual contains information that must be read and understoodbefore using the equipment. When you come to an area that has one ofthe following symbols, pay particular attention and make certain to heedthe safeguard.This symbol indicates a potential hazard that may causeserious injury or loss of life. Important safety informationwill follow.AttentionThis symbol indicates a potential hazard to you or to theequipment. Important information that tells how toprevent damage to the equipment or how to avoidcauses of minor injuries will follow.A hazard symbol such as this one refers to a specific,task-related risk. Be sure to heed the safeguard.i Notes give important information which should be givenspecial attention.HAZARD: INJECTION INJURYA high pressure stream produced by this equipmentcan pierce the skin and underlying tissues, leading toserious injury and possible amputation.DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS ASIMPLE CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See aphysician immediately.The maximum operating range of the unit is 221 bar(22.1 MPa, 3200 PSI) fluid pressure.PREVENTION:• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluidstream. DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the fluidhose.• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves willnot provide protection against an injection injury.• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the fluid pump offand release all pressure before servicing, cleaningthe tip guard, changing tips, or leaving unattended.Pressure will not be released by turning off the engine.The PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valvemust be turned to their appropriate positions to relievesystem pressure.• ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while spraying. Thetip guard provides some protection but is mainly awarning device.• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger lockand trigger guard in place.• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing orcleaning the system.• The paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinkingand abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin.Inspect the hose before each use.• All accessories must be rated at or above themaximum operating pressure range of the sprayer.This includes spray tips, guns, extensions, and hose.NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It isimportant to treat the injury as soon as possible. DONOT delay treatment to research toxicity. Toxicity is aconcern with some coatings injected directly into theblood stream. Consultation with a plastic surgeon orreconstructive hand surgeon may be advisable.HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRESolvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite. Severeinjury and/or property damage can occur.PREVENTION:• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air introductionto keep the air within the spray area free fromaccumulation of flammable vapors.• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electricitysparks, electrical appliances, flames, pilot lights, hotobjects, and sparks from connecting and disconnectingpower cords or working light switches.• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plasticto enclose spray area. Do not use plastic drop clothswhen spraying flammable materials.• Always flush unit into separate metal container, at lowpump pressure, with spray tip removed. Hold gunfirmly against side of container to ground container andprevent static sparks.• Do not smoke in spray area.• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good workingorder.• Place sprayer at least 6.1 m (20 feet) from the sprayobject in a well ventilated area (add more hose ifnecessary). Flammable vapors are often heavier thanair. Floor area must be extremely well ventilated. Thepump contains arcing parts that emit sparks and canignite vapors.• The equipment and objects in and around the sprayarea must be properly grounded to prevent staticsparks.• Use only conductive or earthed high pressure fluidhose. Gun must be earthed through hose connections.• Power cord must be connected to a grounded circuit(electric units only).• The unit must be connected to an earthed object. Usethe green earthing wire to connect the unit to a waterpipe, steel beam, or other electrically earthed surface.• Follow material and solvent manufacturer’s warningsand instructions. Be familiar with the coating material’sMSDS sheet and technical information to ensure safeuse.• Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 21° C(70° F). Flashpoint is the temperature at which a fluidcan produce enough vapors to ignite.• Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.PE0 bar
