Improper operation or mainte-

nance may create a hazard.

Personnel must be properly

trained in the use of this equip-

ment.

Personnel must be given training in accordance

with the requirements of NFPA-33.

Instructions and safety precautions must be read

OSHA, NFPA-33, and your insurance company

requirements.

General Use and

Maintenance

Electrical

Equipment

High voltage equipment is uti-

lized. Arcing in areas of flam-

mable or combustible materials

may occur. Personnel are ex-

posed to high voltage during

operation and maintenance.

Protection against inadvertent

arcing that may cause a fire or

explosion is lost if safety circuits

are disabled during operation.

Frequent power supply shut-

down indicates a problem in

the system which requires cor-

rection.

An electrical arc can ignite coat-

ing materials and cause a fire

or explosion.

The power supply, optional remote control cabinet,

and all other electrical equipment must be located

outside Class I or II, Division 1 and 2 hazardous

areas. Refer to NFPA-33.

Turn the power supply OFF before working on

the equipment.

Test only in areas free of flammable or combustible

material.

Testing may require high voltage to be on, but only

as instructed.

Production should never be done with the safety

circuits disabled.

Before turning the high voltage on, make sure no

objects are within the sparking distance.

Explosion Hazard/

Incompatible

Materials

Halogenated hydrocarbon sol-

vents

for example: methylene

chloride and 1,1,1,-Trichloro-

ethane are not chemically com-

patible with the aluminum that

might be used in many system

components. The chemical

reaction caused by these sol-

vents reacting with aluminum

can become violent and lead to

an equipment explosion.

Aluminum is widely used in other spray application

equipment - such as material pumps, regulators,

triggering valves, etc. Halogenated hydrocarbon

solvents must never be used with aluminum equip-

ment during spraying, flushing, or cleaning. Read

the label or data sheet for the material you intend

to spray. If in doubt as to whether or not a coating

or cleaning material is compatible, contact your

material supplier. Any other type of solvent may

be used with aluminum equipment.
