GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, re and/or
serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refer to your mains-operated
(corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
.SAFETY AT THE WORKPLACE
Keep your workplace clean and well lit. Disorder or unlit workplaces may
result in accidents.
Never use the tool in hazardous areas that contain ammable liquids,
gasesor dusts. Power tools generate sparks that can ignite the dust or
vapors.

USER MANUAL 5
Keep children and other persons away when using the power tool. You
can lose control of the tool if you are distracted.
.ELECTRICAL SAFETY
The tool plug must t into the socket. The plug may not be modied in
any form.
Do not use adaptor plugs together with protective-earthed tools.
Unmodified plugs and suitable sockets reduce the risk of an electric
shock.
Avoid physical contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating
elements, stoves and refrigerators. The risk through electric shock increases
if your body is earthed.
Keep the equipment away from rain and moisture. The risk of an electric
shock increases if water penetrates electrical equipment.
Do not misuse the mains lead by carrying the tool by the lead, hanging
it from the lead or by pulling on the lead to remove the plug. Keep the
lead away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving tool parts. Damaged or
twisted leads increase the risk of an electric shock.
If you work outdoors with a power tool, only use extension cables suitable
for outdoor use. The use of an extension lead that is suitable for
outdoors reduces the risk of an electric shock.
.SAFETY OF PERSONS
Be attentive. Pay attention to what you are doing and work sensibly with
apower tool. Do not use the tool if you are tired or under the inuence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. Just a moment of inattentiveness while
using the tool can lead to serious injuries.
Wear personal safety equipment and always wear safety goggles Wearing
personal protective equipment, such as dust mask, non-slip safety shoes,
safety helm or ear protection, depending on the type of power tools,
reduces the risk of injury.
Avoid accidental starting-up. Make sure that the electric tool is switched

off before you connect it to the power supply, pick it up or carry it.
Accidents can occur if you carry the power tool while your nger is
on the switch or if you connect the power tool to the power supply which
it is on.
Remove setting tools or wrenches before switching on the power tool. A
tool or wrench that is in a rotating tool part can lead to injuries.
Avoid an unnatural posture. Ensure that you are standing securely and
have your balance at all times. This ensures that you can control the tool
better in unexpected situations.
Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear wide clothing or jewelry. Keep your
hair, clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewelry or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
Do not lull yourself into a false sense of security and do not think
yourself above the safety rules for electric tools, even if you are familiar
with the electric tool following extensive practical experience. Careless
use can lead to serious injuries in fractions of a second.
.USAGE AND TREATMENT OF THE ELECTRIC TOOL
Do not overload the tool. Use the power tool designed for the work that
youare doing. You work better and safer in the specied performance
range if you use the suitable power tool.
Do not use power tools whose switch is defective. A power tool that cannot
be switched on or off is dangerous and has to be repaired.
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out tool settings,
changing accessories or putting the tool away. This precautionary measure
prevents unintentional starting of the tool.
Store unused power tools so that they are inaccessible to children. Do
not letpersons use the tool who are not familiar with it or who have not
read these instructions. Power tools are dangerous when they are used
by inexperienced persons.
Take proper care of your tools. Check whether the moving parts
functiontrouble-free and do not jam, whether parts are broken or
damaged so that the tool function is impaired. Have damaged parts

USER MANUAL 7
repaired before using the tool. Many accidents have their origin in power
tools that have been maintained badly.
Use the power tool, accessories, insert tools, etc. in accordance with
these instructions and in a fashion specied for this special tool type.
Take the working conditions and the activity to be carried out into
consideration. The use of power tools for purposes other than the
intended ones can lead to dangerous situations.
Keep the handles and grip surfaces dry, clean and free of oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grip surfaces hamper safe operation and control of
the electric tool in unforeseen situations.
.SERVICE
- Have your power tool serviced by qualied repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of power tool
is maintained.
- Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPRAY GUNS
- You may only spray coating materials such as paints, varnishes, glazes,
etc. with a ashpoint of 21°C (32°C in UK) and higher without additional
warning. (German classication of coating material is hazard classes A
II and A III, see material tin.)
- The device may not be used in workplaces covered by the
explosion-protection regulations.
- There must be no sources of ignition such as, for example, open fres,
smoke of lit cigarettes, cigars and tobacco pipes, sparks, glowing wires,
hot surfaces, etc. in the vicinity during spraying.
- Before working on the spray gun remove the power plug from the socket.
- Do not use the spray guns to spray ammable substances. The spray
guns are not to be cleaned with ammable solvents which have a ashpoint
under 21°C.

.RECOMMENDATION:
Wear a breathing mask and safety glasses when spraying.
CAUTION!
-Never point the spray gun at yourself, at other people or at animals.
- When working with the tool indoors as well as outdoors ensure that no
solvent vapors are sucked in by the spray gun.
- When working outdoors, be aware of the wind direction. Wind can carry
the coating substance across greater distances - thus causing damage.
When working indoors, provide for adequate ventilation.
- Do not let children handle the device.
- Never open the device yourself in order to carry out repairs in the electrical system!
- Do not lay the spray gun.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the power tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to
eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in
connection with the power tool’s construction and design:
1- Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
2- Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.
3- Damages to health resulting from vibration emission if the power tool
is being used over longer period of time or not adequately

SPRAY TECHNIQUE
- The spray result depends heavily on the smoothness and cleanliness
of the surface to besprayed. Therefore the surface should be carefully
prepared and kept free of dust.
- Cover all surfaces not to be sprayed.
- Cover screw threads or similar parts of the target object.
- It is advisable to test the spray gun on cardboard or a similar surface
to nd the correctsetting.
.IMPORTANT:
- Begin spraying outside of the target area and avoid interruptions inside
the target area.
.CORRECT:
- Be sure to hold the spray gun at an even distance of approx. 5 - 15 cm
to the target object. (Fig. 7)

USER MANUAL 13
.INCORRECT :
- Heavy spray fog build-up, uneven surface quality. (Fig. 7)
Fig. 7
3.20cm
- Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up-and-down, depending on
the spray pattern setting.
- An even movement of the spray gun results in an even surface quality.
- When coating material builds up on the nozzle (A) and air cap (B).
clean both parts with a solvent or water.
TAKING OUT OF OPERATION
Proper cleaning is the prerequisite for problem-free operation of the
paint application device. No warranty claims are accepted in case of
improper or no cleaning.
