according to the instructions listed in the product safety sheet. The use of safety protection glasses is always recommended.
Hang the Wax 3 on the special hook when it is not being used, so as to guarantee its vertical position. Never tilt the Wax 3 at
an angle greater than 45°, while operating it, in order to avoid inconvenient with the product ow. Regularly check the free
movement and the ecency of the safety valve (8). Do not use the Wax 3 in case the safety valve is stuck. In this case contact
the dealer who sold you the Wax 3.
PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION
2.1 Danger of re or explosion
Do not use solvents and/or halocarbon based detergents (1.1.1 Ethyl trichloride, Methylchloride, etc.) since they could rust gal-
vanized parts causing even explosive chemical reactions. Never use acidic or alkaline substances for cleaning (basics, paint-re-
movers, etc.) Check the ash point of the product used and pay utmost attention to the ambient temperature where you are
working so you are aware of the dangers. Make sure that there are no ignition sources such as free ames, sparks, incandescent
wires or high-temperature surfaces in addition to tools, electric tools or other devices not certied for use in explosive or poten-
tially explosive atmospheres in the work environment.
Mechanical contact of the device with other metals might generate sparks so do not strike steels or oxidised or rusty metals.
2.2 Health safety equipment and precaution
Use the Wax 3 only in well ventilated areas. Always wear suitable protective gloves and goggles as well as specic breathing l-
ters/masks. Use working clothes to protect the body from contact with vapours, mists directly with the products liquids. Please,
refer to the safety data sheet of the product for all the security informations.
2.3 Warnings concerning improper use
After cleaning, maintenance and/or repairs and, in any case, before using the Wax 3, make sure nuts and bolts are rmly secured
in their housings. Never direct the jet towards people or animals.
Never exceed the maximum pressures 8 bar/116 PSI.
Do not clean the parts and especially the threads (in particular the llet of the tank) with abrasive brushes or sandpaper.

3 - INTENDED AND FORBIDDEN USES
ATTENTION: Wax 3 tank must be used when using the applicator in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
The use of dierent or of third-party tanks is strictly prohibited.
CAUTION
NEVER USE HALOGENATED HYDROCARBON SOLVENTS, as these can damage or cause melting of the aluminium gun parts
due to chemical reactions. Incompatible solvents include: Methyl chloride, Dichloromethane, 1.2-Dichloroethane, Carbon
tetrachloride, Trichloroethylene, 1.1.1 - Trichloroethane.
The presence of free ames and the generation of sparks is severely prohibited during and after use of the Wax 3. The products might
be highly inammable and therefore a possible cause of serious res. Avoid any conduct that may give rise to sources of ignition, such
as smoking, generating sparks in mechanical or electrical processes, or working inprecarious safety conditions.
Connect the Wax 3 directly to earth, using a mobile spiral conductive tube (resistance of less than 1 Mega Ohm), checking earthing
eciency periodically.
Use the Wax 3 in well ventilated areas, using the spray painting booth; inadequate or insucient ventilation will increase the risk of
explosion and may lead to intoxication by the solvents.
Always wear the specied personal protective equipment prescribed by this manual and product safety sheet; in the event of physical
injury seek medical attention immediately.
Prolonged and constant use of the Wax 3 may cause syndromes related to physical stress; in the event of limbs fatigue, suspend
painting operations to rest.
Due to the high speed paint ow during high pressure spraying, in certain circumstances electrostatic charge
may accumulate on equipment, and in particular on the Wax 3 . During the discharge phase, these charges may cause the formation
of sparks or ames. Always ensure the Wax 3 is grounded.
Use exclusively lightly oxidising gas for nebulising, and possibly compressed air.
If scale forms on the surface of the equipment, this may also cause electrostatic charges. Discharging may
generate ames or sparks. Remove all scale to maintain electrical conductivity.
PLEASE NOTE: the applicator is not designed to work in dusty areas, especially if the dust is ammable or highly ammable. Pay
utmost attention to the deposits of dust in the surrounding environment, in the work area and on the applicator. Do not work if
you are unsure of the type of dust and whether or not it might become ignited.
2.4 General risk
The applicator must be not used if it has been subjected to potential damage following a bang or a fall which may have com-
promised its resistance, in particular regarding endurance, adjustment or pressure parts. Negative eects may not be imme-
diately visible in terms of fractures, cracks or other similar eects. If any of the said events occur do not use applicator, but have
inspections and testing carried out on it before putting it back in service. If you have any doubts please contact the salesman
before using the product. Check the thread of the pressure cup for wear at regular intervals. Check the threading of the tank at
regular intervals. Lubricate the thread of the tank with the TFO-LF lubricant after each application.
The applicator must not be used, not even if clearly worn, oxidised or in terrible maintenance condition, unless following a total
overhaul performed by an authorised retailer or producer.
The edge of the tank may be sharp and injure hands, so using the applicator with special work gloves is recommended.
Working pressure 4 - 6 bar ( 58 - 87 PSI)
Max pressure 8 BAR / 116 PSI.
g. 2 8
The safety valve causes a strong ow of air when it releases the pressure from the tank. Pay attention to ears and eyes in
addition to any build-up of dust or substances that might be scattered around the work area.
Make sure that the work area oor is dissipative and anti-static, and that every one inside the work area is wearing
anti-static shoes and all personal protective equipment prescribed for that area. The personal protective equipment must
ALWAYS be present and available for every one involved in the use operations or inside the work area.
