1 Preface
This operation manual must always be available to operating
staff!
The operating authority of the equipment must ensure that
a user`s handbook is available to the operator in a language
which he understands.
Dear customer!
Thank you for your decision to purchase equipment.
In the user’s handbook, you can find all information required for the proper
handling of your spray gun. However, for safe operation, there are
further essential details which you should adhere to:
Please read and observe the guidelines valid for your country.
In Germany, the "Richtlinien für Flüssigkeitsstrahler" (Guidelines for Fluid
Sprayers) published by: Hauptverband der Gewerblichen Berufsgenos-
senschaften (Industrial Employer's Liability Insurance Association) are valid.
Manufacturer’s notes and operating guidelines for coating and pumping mate-
rials should be observed at all times.
No method of operation should be exercised which impairs the safety of the
operating personnel or product.
We wish you much success and excellent working results when using your
spray gun.

Preface

2 Safety
This spray gun was designed and built in accordance with all safety aspects.
It corresponds with the present standards of technical regulations and current
rules for accident prevention. It left the factory in perfect condition, insuring a
high level of safety.
However, the following dangers exist if operated incorrectly or used inappro-
priately:
 to life and limb of operator or third personso
 for the machine and other property belonging to owner of machine
 for the efficient working of the machine
All personnel involved in the starting, operation, and maintenance of the spray
gun and associated equipment must read the following notes and observe
them.
It is a matter of their safety!
2.1 First read, then start
Remember that airless paint spraying equipment works under
extreme pressure and that high levels of spraying pressure are
created!
 Never hold your finger or hand in front of the gun and never reach into
the spray.
 Never point the spray gun towards yourself, other people or other living
creatures.
 Always pay close attention to the references and specifications found in
the user's handbook!
Before each usage, be especially certain to:
 Check the grounding conditions (for the unit and the object to be
sprayed).
 Check the seal of all connecting and mounted parts.
 Observe the maximal allowed pressure of the unit and accessory parts.
Before beginning any work on the equipment, and at any pause during
6Translation of the original operation manual

Safety

operation, it is absolutely required to:
 Shut down the spraying equipment in accordance with the instructions in
the user's handbook.
 Release the pressure found in the spray gun and hose.
 Secure the spray gun.
Pay attention to safety!
The accident prevention regulation "Handling of Coating Materials" (BGR500,
Kap.2.29) and the guidelines covering fluid sprayers (ZH1/406) from the Ger-
man Employer's Liability Insurance Association are to be observed without
fail. To ensure a safe operating environment, the condition of fluid sprayers
must be inspected by an expert every 12 months or sooner, if deemed neces-
sary. A written record of the inspection results is to be kept.
Remaining paint and solvent are to be disposed of according to legal regula-
tions. This also applies for environmentally friendly water based lacquer or
enamel systems.
In case of injuries, consult a physician or go to the next hospital without delay.
If paint/material or solvent has gone into the skin, the physician has to be
informed about the type of paint/material or the solvent applied.
Therefore, always ensure that the product specification sheet, with address
and telephone number of the manufacturer, is at your disposal!

2.4 Dangers caused by attachments and spare
parts
If you use original attachments and original spare parts from , the
compatibility with our equipment is guaranteed. It is, however, essential that
the safety regulations of the attachments and spare parts are observed. You
can find these safety regulations in the User’s Handbook located with the
spare parts lists.
If you use attachments and spare parts from another source, can-
not guarantee the safety of the entire system.
In this case, our guarantee does not cover any damage or injury caused by
such attachments and spare parts.
2.5 Dangers caused by emissions
It is possible for solvent vapours to occur, depending on the materials used.
Therefore, please ensure the workplace is sufficiently ventilated in order to
avoid damage to health and property. Always observe the processing informa-

2.6 Safety instructions
Observe the following notes:
 The spray gun must meet or exceed the maximum operational pressure
of the paint spraying equipment being used.
 Because of the electrostatic charges produced by spraying, the spray
gun may only be mounted to conductive hoses. All original
hoses are conductive and matched to spray equipment.
 It is possible for a static charge to occur due to the high flow speeds
during the airless spraying procedure. Static charges can lead to fire and
explosions.
 Therefore, the complete unit (including the spray gun) and the
object to be sprayed must be grounded properly.
 Never point the spray gun towards yourself, other people or
other living creatures!
 Never hold your finger or hand in front of the gun and never reach into
the spray.
 Hold the spray gun securely, as the high operating pressure can result in
severe kickback.
 Never try to seal leaks on joints and high pressure hoses with your hand
or by binding the spot. Should a leak occur, the whole system (gun, hose,
pressure filter, pump, etc.) are to be depressurized immediately. Defec-
tive parts are to be replaced.
The spray gun is to be secured and the safety device checked during
every interruption while working, regardless how short.
 If working with heated materials, always wear the proper hand
protection. BURN DANGER!
Upon work interruption and decommissioning of the spraying unit the
entire system has to be depressurized. Read and follow the instructions
in the operation manual for the spray equipment. Trigger the spray gun
briefly at the end of work to release any residual pressure.
The entire system is to be depressurized before maintenance and clean-
ing work is carried out. Read and follow the user's handbook for the
