WARNINGS
Fire, Explosion, and Electric Shock Hazard
Improper grounding, poor air ventilation, open flames or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and
result in fire, explosion and serious injury.
• Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid buildup of flammable fumes from flushing fluids or coatings
being applied.
• Keep application area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.
