NEVER attempt to block the jet or a leak with
the hand or any other part of the body.
Ensure the safety devices of the equipment
function correctly before each use.
Make sure the gun safety devices are in correct
working order before using it for any purpose.
Do not remove or modify any part of the
equipment, this may lead to malfunction and risk
of physical injuries.
3.1.2. Contact medical assistance in case of
injuries from airless spraying
If you have suffered exposure to product sprayed
onto the skin, CALL IMMEDIATELY FOR
MEDICAL ASSISTANCE. DO NOT TREAT IT
LIKE AN ORDINARY CUT. Tell the doctor exactly
which product was being sprayed.
Note to the medical staff: the injection of products
through the skin is a traumatic injury. It is important
that the wound is treated as soon as possible.
Do not delay treatment while investigating toxicity.
Certain toxic products are particularly dangerous
when injected directly into the blood stream.
3.1.3. Safety systems in the spray gun
Make sure the safety systems in the spray gun
are in correct working order before use. Do not
remove or modify any component of the gun;
doing so may result in malfunction and cause
severe physical injuries.
Trigger safety catch
When spraying is interrupted, even if only for a
moment, always use the trigger safety catch so
that the trigger is immobilised. Failure to do this
may result in the trigger being operated
accidentally, mainly when the gun is dropped to
the floor.
Diffuser
The gun diffuser interrupts the jet and reduces
the risk of injection when the cap is not in place.
To check the operation of the diffuser, follow the
decompression procedure and then remove the
tip.
Adjust the pump pressure to the lowest setting.
Aim the gun toward a metal bucket which is
properly grounded.
Remove the gun safety catch and press the
trigger. The jet should be unstable and swirling.
If the jet is even, replace the diffuser immediately.
Tip protector
ALWAYS keep the tip protector in its place on
the gun whilst spraying. The protector gives
warning of the risk of products being injected
onto the skin and assists in reducing this danger,
but it does not eliminate the risk of fingers or any
part of the body from being placed too near the
spraying tip.
Trigger protector
ALWAYS keep the trigger protector in place on
the spray gun while this is in use in order to
reduce the risk of accidental operation of the gun
if it is dropped or knocked.
Spray tip safety systems
Every precaution must be taken during cleaning
or replacing spray tips.
NEVER remove the product remaining on or
around the spray tip until the pressure has been
eliminated and the safety catch is in place.
3.1.3. Decompression procedure
With the aim of reducing the risk of severe bodily
injury, including the injection of products or
injuries caused by moving parts of the equipment
or electric shock, the procedure described below
must be followed as soon as the system is halted,
during assembly, cleaning or changing the tip
and also when spraying is interrupted.
a) Set the gun safety catch.
b)Turn the pressure regulator (electrical
machines) for the equipment to the minimum
setting (anticlockwise).
c) In pneumatic units, close the air stop cock to
the pump and then operate the air inlet pressure
regulator to the pump until it is set to minimum
(turn anticlockwise).
d) Remove the spray gun safety catch. Holding
a metallic part of the spray gun (trigger guard)
to the side of a correctly-grounded bucket, press
the trigger to drain the product (aim the jet toward
the side of the bucket).
e) Set the gun safety catch.
f) Set the motor switch to the position "O" (off).
g) Disconnect the power supply cable (electric
models).
h) Open the drain valve after placing a container
nearby in which to collect the product. Leave the
valve open until required for spraying.
If you have reason to believe the tip or the hose
is completely clogged, or that the pressure has
not been totally eliminated after having followed
the procedure described above, loosen the hose
connector VERY GENTLY in order to reduce the
pressure gradually, and finally remove it
altogether. Clean the tip or the hose immediately.
