Indicates a case where failure in observing the advice on proper handling manners, or neglecting
appropriate precautions may result in injury or death, and/or serious damage to the product.
Fire and Explosion
1.
Keep fire off your paint spray work area.
−
Paint is inflammable, causing fire and explosion. To conduct spray work, select a wide, well-ventilated place.
−
Be sure to keep an inflammable object (cigarette, ignition equipment, electric equipment, etc.) off your spray work area.
−
To clean spray gun, use a solvent whose flash point is equivalent to, or higher than that of the paint being used. Using a general cleaning solvent causes a fire. Use
a cleaning solvent with 37.8
℃
or higher flash point.
−
Provide a fire extinguisher in your spray work area.
2.
Do not use a halogenated hydrocarbon solvent.
−
Chemical reaction with the solvent causes spray gun body (aluminum parts) to crack or melt.
−
Incompatible solvent: methyl chloride, ethyl chloride, methylene dichloride, ethylene dichloride, carbon tetrachloride, trichloroethylene, 1.1.1 trichloroethane,
etc.
−
Before using a special paint or paint thinner, thoroughly check if the material is compatible or not.
3.
Connect ground cable.
−
Ground spray gun securely. For example, use hose with ground wire.
−
If spray gun is not securely grounded, it generates sparks of static electricity, causing a fire and explosion.
Protection of Human Body
1.
Ensure thorough ventilation.
−
To conduct spray work, be sure to select a well ventilated place with a booth.
−
If you conduct spray work in an airtight room or insufficiently ventilated place, you may suffer poisoning caused by organic solvent, or a risk factor of flammability
will increase.
2.
Wear appropriate clothes and protective gear.
−
During spray and cleaning work, always wear appropriate clothes and protective gear (goggles, G-7-04 mask, and gloves).
−
Some kinds of paints cause a hazard, if the paint touches eyes or the skin. Check the paint and solvent being used. During spray and cleaning work, wear appropriate
clothes and gloves.
3.
We recommend users to wear ear plugs for health and safety.
−
The product may produce a noise level of 80 dB (A) or higher depending on the use condition or work environment.
4.
Take a rest if you get tired during spray work.
−
Pulling the trigger many times during long-hours of work may cause tendovaginitis.
Improper Handling of Equipment
1.
Do not direct spray gun toward people.
−
Never attempt to spray paint toward people or animals.
−
Failure to observe this instruction may result in inflammations of eyes and the skin, or other hazard to human body.
2.
Use spray gun within the maximum operating pressure.
−
Never use spray gun at a pressure higher than the maximum operating pressure (0.69 MPa).
3.
During interruption of work, release compressed air.
−
Before cleaning, disassembly or maintenance/inspection of spray gun, or during a halt of spray work, be sure to release compressed air from spray gun.
−
If compressed air is remaining in spray gun, it may accidentally work, or cleaning solvent may spatter, causing a hazard to human body.
−
To release compressed air, stop supplying compressed air, paint and paint thinner to spray gun, and pull trigger lightly.
