PP119 - Safety Information

All local regulations in force must be observed.
For secure handling of Airless high-pressure spraying units the 

following safety regulations are to be observed:

U

  Flash point

Danger

Only use coating materials with a flash point of 21 °C 

or above without additional heating.
The flash point is the lowest temperature at which 

vapors develop from the coating material.
These vapors are sufficient to form an inflammable 

mixture over the air above the coating material.

U

  Explosion protection

Danger

Do not use the unit in work places which are covered 

to the explosion protection regulations. 

U

  Danger of explosion and fire through 

sources of flame during spraying work

Danger

There may be no sources of flame such as, for 

example, open fires, smoking of cigarettes, cigars or 

tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces, 

etc. in the vicinity.

U

  Danger of injury through the spray jet

Danger

Caution! Danger of injury through injection!
Never point the spray gun at yourself, other persons or animals.
Never use the spray gun without spray jet safety guard.
The spray jet may not come into contact with any part of the 

body.
All hoses, fittings, and filter parts must be secured before 

operating spray pump.  Unsecured parts can eject at great force 

or leak a high pressure fluid stream causing severe injury.
In working with Airless spray guns, the high spray pressures 

arising can cause very dangerous injuries. If contact is made with 

the spray jet, coating material can be injected into the skin. Do 

not treat a spray injury as a harmless cut. In the case of injury to 

the skin through coating material or solvents, consult a doctor 

for quick and correct treatment. Inform the doctor about the 

coating material or solvent used.

U

  Secure spray gun against unintended 

operation

Always secure the spray gun when mounting or dismounting the 

tip and in case of interruption to work.

U

  Recoil of spray gun

Danger

In case of high operating pressure, pulling the 

trigger can effect a recoil force of up to 15 N.
If you are not prepared for this, your hand can be 

thrust backwards or your balance lost. This can lead 

to injury.

U

  Respiratory protection for protection 

against vapors of solvents

Wear respiratory protection when spraying.
The user must be provided with a breathing mask.

U

  Prevention of occupational illnesses

Protective clothing, gloves and possibly skin protection cream are 

necessary for the protection of the skin.
Observe the regulations of the manufacturer concerning coating 

materials, solvents and cleaning agents in preparation, processing 

and cleaning units.

U

  Max. operating pressure

Max. permissible operating pressure for spray gun, spray gun 

accessories and high-pressure hose may not fall short of the 

maximum operating pressure of 200 bar (20 MPa) stated on the 

unit.

U

  High-pressure hose (safety note)

Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pressure hose 

is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this reason the 

electric resistance between the connections of the high-pressure 

hose must be equal or lower than 197 kΩ/m (60 kΩ/ft.). 

i

For reasons of function, safety and durability use 

only original WAGNER high-pressure hoses.

U

  Electrostatic charging (formation of 

sparks or flame)

Danger

Under certain circumstances, electrostatic charging 

can occur on the unit due to the rate of flow of the 

coating material when spraying. On discharging this 

can result in the emergence of sparks or fire. It is 

therefore necessary that the unit is always earthed 

through the electrical installation. The connection 

must take place through a correctly earthed 

two-pole-and-earth socket outlet.

U

  Using unit on construction sites

Connection to the mains only through a special feed point, e.g. 

through an error protection installation with INF ≤ 30 mA.

U

  Setting up the unit

When working indoors:

Danger

Vapors containing solvents may not be allowed to 

build up in the area of the device.
Setting up the unit on the side a way from the 

sprayed object.
