Operating the Turbine
WARNING
Sparking can be expected in the normal operation
of the turbine motor. Sparks could ignite fumes
from flammable liquid, dust particles and other
flammable substances in the spray area, and
cause serious injury and property damage. Be
sure to follow the precautions below:
0
When flammable liquid
is
sprayed or used for
flushing or cleaning equipment, the turbine
must be placed at least
20
feet (6.1 m) away
from areas where hazardous concentrations of
flammable vapors are likely to occur.
0
Use additional air hose if necessary to ensure
that the turbine is operated in a clean, dry, well
ventilated area.
Never place the turbine inside a spray booth!
Use this equipment outdoors or in extremely
well ventilated areas.
Avoid all ignition sources such as static elec-
tricity from plastic drop cloths, open flames
such
as
pilot lights, hot objects such as ciga-
power cords or turning light switches on and
rettes, arcs from connecting or disconnecting
off. Extinguish or remove all sources of ignition.
1. Turn the turbine on a few minutes before you Start
spraying
to
allow for warm-up time.
NOTE:
When the turbine is not in use for an ex-
tended period of time, turn it
off.
The turbine does not
shut off automatically.
2.
Be sure the turbine filter
is
clean before operating.
