hAZArD: INjecTIoN INjury
Attention: Danger of injury by
injection! A high pressure stream
produced by this equipment can
pierce the skin and underlying tissues,
leading to serious injury and possible
amputation.
Do not treat a spraying injury as a
harmless cut. In case of injury to the
skin through coating materials or
solvents, consult a doctor immediately
for quick and expert treatment. Inform
the doctor about the coating 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 not provide protection against an
injection injury.
ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the fluid
•
pump off and release all pressure before
servicing, cleaning the tip guard, changing
tips, or leaving unattended. Pressure will not
be released by turning off the engine. The
PRIME/SPRAY valve or pressure bleed valve
must be turned to their appropriate positions
to relieve system pressure.
ALWAYS keep tip guard in place while
•
spraying. The tip guard provides some
protection but is mainly a warning device.
ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing
•
or cleaning the system.
NEVER use a spray gun without a working
•
trigger lock and trigger guard in place.
