Grounding Instructions
(Oil-Based or Flammable Materials)
The sprayer is equipped with a Ground Wire
and Plug. The Plug must be connected to a
properly grounded electrical outlet when
spraying or flushing oil-based or flammable
materials, see Important Grounding
Information, page 4. Move the sprayer away
from the spray area when connecting the
Ground Wire and Plug.
If the Grounding Wire is not long enough to
reach a grounded electrical outlet, use a
3-wire grounded extension cord between
the Plug and outlet.
Pails
Oil-based or flammable fluids: follow local
codes and regulations. Use only conductive
metal pails, placed on a grounded surface
such as concrete.
Do not place pail on a non-conductive
surface such as paper or cardboard which
interrupts grounding continuity.
Always ground a metal pail: connect a
ground wire to the pail. Clamp one end to the
pail and the other end to a true earth ground
such as a water pipe.
The equipment must be grounded to
reduce the risk of static sparking. A static
spark can cause fumes to ignite or
explode. A good ground provides an
escape wire for the electric current.
