• Pressurized equipment can start without warning. Before checking, moving, or servicing equipment,
follow the Pressure Relief Procedure and disconnect all power sources.
FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD
Flammable fumes, such as solvent and paint fumes, in work area can ignite or explode. Paint or solvent
flowing through the equipment can cause static sparking. To help prevent fire and explosion:
• Use equipment only in well ventilated area.
• Eliminate all ignition sources; such as pilot lights, cigarettes, portable electric lamps, and plastic drop
cloths (potential static arc).
• Ground all equipment in the work area. See Grounding instructions.
• Keep work area free of debris, including solvent, rags and gasoline.
• Do not plug or unplug power cords, or turn power or light switches on or off when flammable fumes are
present.
• Use only grounded hoses.
• Stop operation immediately if static sparking occurs or you feel a shock. Do not use equipment until
you identify and correct the problem.
• Keep a working fire extinguisher in the work area.
Static charge may build up on plastic parts during cleaning and could discharge and ignite flammable
vapors. To help prevent fire and explosion:
• Clean plastic parts only in well ventilated area.
• Do not clean with a dry cloth.
