Important Safety
Information
Read all safety information before operating the
equipment. Save these instructions
to PRIME to relieve the pressure. Refer to the
Pressure Relief Procedure (page 7) described in the
pump manual.
• ALWAYS keep the 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.
• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking
and abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin.
Inspect the hose before each use. Do not use hose
to lift or pull equipment.
• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger
lock and trigger guard in place.
• All accessories must be rated at or above 2800
PSI/193 BAR. This includes spray tips, guns,
extensions, and hose.
NOTE TO PHYSICIAN:
Injection into the skin is a traumatic injury. It is
important to treat the injury as soon as possible.
DO NOT delay treatment to research toxicity.
Toxicity is a concern with some coatings injected
directly into the blood stream. Consultation with
a plastic surgeon or reconstructive hand surgeon
may be advisable.
HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other materials
can be harmful if inhaled or come in
contact with the body. Vapors can
cause severe nausea, fainting, or
poisoning.
PREVENTION:
• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be inhaled.
Read all instructions supplied with the mask to be
sure it will provide the necessary protection.
• Wear protective eye wear.
• Wear protective clothing as required
by coating manufacturer.
HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FIRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or
ignite. Property damage and/or severe
injury can occur.
PREVENTION:
• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh
air introduction to keep the air within
the spray area free from accumulation
of flammable vapors. Solvent and
paint fumes can explode or ignite.
• Do not spray in a confined area.
• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, electrical
appliances, and hot objects. Connecting or
disconnecting power cords or working light switches
can make sparks. Paint or solvent flowing through
the equipment is able to result in static electricity.
• Do not smoke in spray area.
• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good
working order.
• Place paint pump in a well-ventilated area away
from the spray object. Flammable vapors are often
heavier than air. Floor area must be extremely well
ventilated.
• The equipment and objects in and around the spray
area must be properly grounded to prevent static
sparks.
• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent
containers, rags and other flammable materials.
• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure
fluid hose. Gun must be grounded through hose
connections.
• Power cord must be connected to a grounded
circuit.
• Always flush unit into a separate metal container,
at low pump pressure, with spray tip removed.
Hold gun firmly against side of container to ground
container and prevent static sparks.
• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer’s
warnings and instructions. Know the contents of the
paints and solvents being sprayed. Read all Material
Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and container labels
provided with the paints and solvents. Follow the
paint and solvent manufacturer’s safety instructions.
Indicates a hazardous situation which,
if not avoided, could result in death or
serious injury.
HAZARD: Injection injury
A high pressure paint stream produced by this
equipment can pierce the skin and
underlying tissues, leading to serious
injury and possible amputation. See a
physician immediately.
DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION
INJURY AS A SIMPLE CUT! Injection can lead to
amputation. See a physician immediately.
The maximum operating range of the gun is 2800
PSI/193 BAR fluid pressure.
PREVENTION:
• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.
• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or
animal.
• 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 pump off,
and release all pressure before servicing, cleaning
the tip or guard, changing tip, or leaving unattended.
Pressure will not be released by turning off the
motor. The PRIME/SPRAY knob must be turned
To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electrical shock and the injury
to persons, read and understand all instructions included in this manual.
Be familiar with the controls and proper usage of the equipment.
