9. INSTRUCTION MANUAL
Depending on the type of application and the place of installation, the operator must use the operat-
ing instructions to provide more details on the safe operation of the BINKS airless pump, in the form
of an instruction manual in the language of the workforce. This instruction manual is to kept in a
suitable location at the place of work and the workforce informed of its whereabouts. The workforce
should comply with the instructions contained in this instruction manual.
10. COMPULSORY TESTING
In accordance with the professional association directives governing jet stream units, ZH 1/406,
paint spraying equipment should be checked by an expert on request, or at least every 12 months,
to ensure that there is no risk involved in its continued operation. If the units are idle, the examina-
tion can be delayed until the next period of operation. The operator is obliged to register the equip-
ment for testing and to keep written records of the results of such testing.
An expert is someone whose professional training and experience has given him adequate knowl-
edge and understanding of jet stream units and who is sufficiently acquainted with the relevant na-
tional health and safety and work and accident prevention regulations, directives and generally rec-
ognised technical regulations, that he is able to assess whether jet stream units are safe to oper-
ate.
The employer (operator) must make sure that test results for each jet stream unit are kept as a
written record and that this is retained until the next text. We provide a blank "Test record for
spraying equipment" form for this purpose. Please make as many copies of this as you need.
Furthermore, you must ensure that this test document is available at the place where the jet stream
unit is in use. A copy of the test record or a test plaque is sufficient for this.
But we also ask you to enter the test document, date and expert in the “Test Document” table.
