3. Approved cleaning agents
Highly flammable liquids, hazard symbol „F“ / R 11 flashpoint < 21°C
GHS/CLP H 225 flashpoint < 23°C, boiling point > 35°C
Flammable liquids, hazard symbol - / R 10, flashpoint 21 – 55°C
GHS/CLP H 226 flashpoint 23 – 60°C
Non-flammable aqueous cleaning agents (neutral or slightly alkaline pH value for water-
soluble paints and dyes, such as demineralized water).
The machines Starter 01 and 02 are classified as machine category 2, group II,

Acids are not permitted. Paint strippers or other additives (e.g. brake cleaners etc.)
may must not be used in the washing unit.
Ask the supplier of your cleaning device for a material safety data sheet. This provides
information about the cleaning medium you are using.
Never alternately use solvents and cleaning agents for water-based paints. Follow the
cleaner manufacturer's instructions. Alternating the two types of agents can cause gas
buildup and the risk of an explosion.
If you plan on changing from solvent to water-based paint remover (or the other way
round), the spray gun washing unit has to be completely cleaned of all paint, water,
and solvent residues.
Recommendation to reduce solvent consumption:
If the unit shall be connected to a continuously running exhaust when using solvent,
we recommend the pneumatic exhaust damper to reduce solvent consumption.
