WARNING
1. FLUID INJECTION HAZARD
This equipment generates very high fluid pressure. Spray from gun, leaks or ruptured
components can inject fluid through your skin and into your body and cause extremely serious
bodily injury, including the need for amputation.
-
Never point the gun at anyone or at any part of the body.
-
Never put hands or fingers over the spray tip.
-
Never try to stop or deflect leaks with your hand or body.
-
If any fluid appears to have penetrated your skin, get emergency medical care at once.
Do not treat as a simple cut. Tell the doctor exactly what fluid was injected.
2. FLUID RELIEF PROCEDURE
To reduce the risk of serious bodily injury, including fluid injection, splashing in the eyes or on
the skin, or injury from moving parts, always follow this procedure whenever you shut off or
service the pump.
1.
Shut off the power to the pump.
2.
Close the bleed-type master air valve.
3.
Activate the gun to relieve pressure.
4.
Open the pump drain valve to help relieve fluid pressure in the displacement pump.
Actuating the gun to relieve pressure may not be sufficient. Have a container ready to
catch drainage.
5.
Leave the drain valve(s) open until you are ready to spray again.
If you suspect that the spray tip or hose is completely clogged, or that pressure has not
been fully relieved after following the steps above, very slowly loosen the tip retainer or
hose end coupling and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Now clear
the tip or hose.
6.
To prevent hazardous concentrations of toxic and/or flammable vapors, spray only in a
properly ventilated spray booth. Never operate the spray gun unless the ventilating fans
are operating.
