over-
pressurizing, modifying parts, using incompatible chemicals
and fluids, or using worn or damaged parts, can cause them to
rupture and result in serious bodily injury, such as splashing
fluid in the eyes or on the skin, fire, explosion, or propew
damage.

If
you
suspect that the nozzle or hose
is
completely clogged,
or that pressure has not been

relieved after following the
steps above, VERY SLOWLY loosen the hose end coupling
and relieve pressure gradually, then loosen completely. Now
clear the nozzle or hose.
FIRE
OR
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Static electricity
is
created by the flow of fluid through the
pump and hose.
If

part of the equipment is not properly
grounded, sparking may occur, end the system may become
hazardous. Sparking may also occur when plugging in or
unplugging
a
power supply cord. Sparks can ignite fumes
from solvents and the fluid being dispensed, dust particlesand
other flammable substances, and can cause fire or explosion
and serious bodily injury and propew damage.
