as hot objects, cigarettes, motors, electrical equipment
and electrical appliances. Avoid creating sparks from
connecting and disconnecting power cords.
•
For use with only water-based or mineral spirit-type
materials with a minimum flash point of 100ºF (38ºC) — Do
not spray or clean with liquids having a flash point of less
than 100ºF (38ºC). Flash point is the temperature at which
a fluid can produce enough vapor to ignite.
•
Verify that all containers and collection systems are
grounded to prevent static discharge.
•
Connect to a grounded outlet and use grounded extension
cords (electric models only). Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
•
Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good supply of
fresh air moving through the area to keep the air within the
