WARNING: Solvents and paints are harmful and can even be toxic. Some
solvents and paints are extremely flammable. Handle with care, according
to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Store solvents and paint in sealed,
leak proof containers made of a material that is chemically resistant to the
specific solvent. Always wear suitable protective equipment and dispose
of solvents and paints, as well as contaminated items, as special waste,
according to laws and regulations.
WARNING: Solvents that are chemically based on halogenated hydrocarbon,
like trichloroethane and methylene chloride 1,1,1, may cause chemical
reactions in combination with aluminium and galvanised or hot galvanised
components, and may therefore represent a potential explosion hazard.
WARNING: When spraying coating materials, dangerous vapours or
aerosols, which are detrimental to your health, are produced. Please
read all labels and safety instructions carefully, and observe all indicated
instructions and recommendations. In case of doubt, please ask the
material supplier. Use respiratory protection when spraying. The respiratory
equipment used must be suitable for the material in use and adapted to the
degree of the vapour concentration. When spraying paint, use respiratory
equipment independent of the ambient atmosphere, or equipment with filter
combination A1/A2-P2. Ensure a sufficient protection of your skin during all
spraying and cleaning procedures. Wear appropriate protective clothes and
use suitable protective skin ointments.
WARNING: DO NOT spray acids, caustic solutions, removers and similar
substances.
Intended Use
• Atomising suction feed spray gun, powered by filtered compressed air
from a compressor, for spraying of medium viscosity paint and coatings
Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all
its features and functions
• Ensure all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If any parts
are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting
to use this tool
Additional Safety Instructions for
Pneumatic Tools
Air under pressure can cause severe injury:
• Always shut off air supply, drain hose of air pressure and disconnect tool
from air supply when not in use, before changing accessories or when
making repairs
• Never direct air at yourself or anyone else
• Whipping hoses can cause severe injury. Always check for damaged or
loose hoses and fittings
• Whenever universal twist couplings (claw couplings) are used, lock
pins should be installed and whipcheck safety cables should be used
to safeguard against possible hose-to-tool or hose-to-hose connection
failure
• Do not exceed the maximum air pressure stated on the tool
• Never carry an air tool by the hose
Spray Gun Safety
Dangerous environment
• Ensure there is adequate clear space around the work area. Only use
spraying tools in a well-ventilated area or a specialist spray booth. Be
aware that air hoses can present a trip hazard; always lay hoses in a way
that minimises hazards.
Protect your eyes
• Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses.
Protect your hearing
• Always wear ear protection.
Protection from vibration
• Hand-held air tools may produce vibration and should not be used for
long periods without a break. Vibration can cause disease. Gloves may
help to maintain good blood circulation in the fingers.
Protective equipment
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment including but not limited
to overalls, gloves, facemask etc.
• It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that other persons in the vicinity
of the work area are also equipped with the appropriate protective
equipment.
Use the correct air hose
• Use lightweight hose to connect the tool to the air compressor.
• Air should be supplied by a suitable length of 8mm (5/16") diameter
air hose fitted with a female 1/4" NPS connection at gun end. For hose
lengths over 15m (50'), use 9.5mm (3/8") diameter hose.
• When spraying, ensure that the gun is connected to a clean, filtered air
supply.
Always disconnect
• Ensure that your air tool has completely stopped functioning before
putting it down.
• Disconnect an air tool from the air supply before performing any
servicing or refilling
• Ensure the air tool is switched OFF before connecting to air supply. Be
aware that air tools may hold residual pressure after use. Always bleed
air pressure from the tool after shutting off air supply.
Do not abuse the tool
• Do not increase air pressure above the recommended level; excessive
pressure leads to wear of moving parts, possible failure and may cause
the tool casing to split.
• Do not attempt to modify air tools. Any attempt to modify this air tool
could result in serious injury to you or others, and will invalidate its
warranty.
Use of spray guns
• Do not aim a spray gun at people or animals!
• When spraying keep away from heat and naked flames!
