•

The work area must exceed 30 m³ and suffi cient

ventilation must be ensured during spraying and
drying.

• Do not spray against the wind. Always adhere to the

regulations of the local police authority when spray-
ing combustible or hazardous materials.

• Do not process media such as white spirit, butyl al-

cohol and methylene chloride with the PVC pressure
hose. These media will destroy the pressure hose.

• The work area must be separated from the compres-

sor so that it cannot come into direct contact with the
working medium.

Operating pressure vessels

• You must keep your pressure vessel in good work-

ing order, operate the vessel correctly, monitor the
vessel, carry out necessary maintenance and re-
pair work immediately and meet the relevant safety
precautions.

• The supervisory authority may enforce essential

control measures in individual cases.

• A pressure vessel is not allowed to be used if it has

faults or deficiencies that can endanger workers or

third parties.

• Check the pressure vessel for signs of rust and

damage each time before using. Do not use the
compressor with a damaged or rusty pressure ves-
sel. If you discover any damage, then please con-
tact the customer service workshop.

pletely ruled out.  The following potential hazards can
arise due to the type and design of the device:
•  Unintentional starting up of the product.
•  Damage to hearing if the stipulated hearing protection

is not worn.

• Dirt particles, dust etc. can get irritate the eyes or face

despite wearing safety goggles.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Safety instructions for working with compressed
air and blasting guns

• The compressor pump and lines can become very

hot during operation. Touching these parts will burn
you.

• The air which is sucked in by the compressor must

be kept free of impurities that could cause fires or

explosions in the compressor pump.

• When releasing the hose coupling, hold the hose

coupling piece with your hand. This way, you can
protect yourself against injury from the rebound-
ing hose.

• Wear safety goggles when working with the blow-

out pistol. Foreign bodies or blown off parts can
easily cause injuries.

• Do not blow at people with the blow-out pistol and

do not clean clothes while being worn. Risk of in-
jury!

Safety instructions when using spraying attach-
ments (e.g. paint sprayers)

• Keep the spray attachment away from the compres-

sor when filling so that no liquid comes into contact

with the compressor.

• Never spray in the direction of the compressor when

using the spraying attachments (e.g. paint sprayers).
Moisture can lead to electrical hazards!

•

Do not process any paints or solvents with a fl ash

point below 55 °C. Risk of explosion!

• Do not heat up paints or solvents. Risk of explosion!
• If hazardous liquids are processed, wear protective

filter units (face guards). Also, adhere to the safety

information provided by the manufacturers of such
liquids.

• The details and designations of the Ordinance on

Hazardous Substances, which are displayed on the
outer packaging of the processed material, must be
observed. Additional protective measures are to be
undertaken if necessary, particularly the wearing of
suitable clothing and masks.

• Do not smoke during the spraying process and/or in

the work area. Risk of explosion! Paint vapours are
easily combustible.

• Never set up or operate the equipment in the vicinity

of a fire place, open lights or sparking machines.

• Do not store or eat food and drink in the work area.

Paint vapours are harmful to your health.
