POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
1. DO NOT use the paint gun if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
2. Store power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with these instructions to operate the paint gun. Power tools are
potentially dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
3. Maintain power tools in top condition. Check for any condition that may
affect the paint gun’s operation. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
4. Machine cleanliness. Clean the paint gun routinely. DO NOT allow the
ventilation slots in the housing to become blocked with dust.

be inspected to ensure that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for any condition that may affect the paint guns
operation. Any damage should be properly repaired or the part replaced.
If in doubt, DO NOT use. Consult your local CLARKE dealer.
6. When necessary, have your paint gun serviced or repaired by a qualified
person using identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the paint gun is maintained.
