If the pneumatic connector is fitted in the air inlet, disconnect the hose from the pistol. If it is not,
depressurise the air hose properly and, using a spanner, unscrew the end of the hose from the air
inlet connector, holding the pistol firmly.
Safe connection to the compressed air network:
If the pneumatic connector is fitted in the air inlet, connect the hose to the pistol. If it is not, hold
the pistol firmly and, using a spanner, screw the end of the hose into the air inlet connector. Check
there are no leaks.
Never point the unit towards yourself, others or animals. The thinners and dilution media used
can cause serious injury.
We recommend using this unit in premises with forced ventilation and in accordance with the
current standards and provisions on the matter.
Near the unit, only keep the amount of product and thinner required for the work being done at
that time. After work has been completed, thinners and the product to be applied must be
returned to their corresponding storage location.
Keep the working area clean and free of potentially dangerous waste (thinners, rags, etc...).
While work is in progress, there must not be any source of ignition (naked flames, lighted cigaret-
tes, etc.) in the working area as these might generate easily flammable gases. Likewise, the
approved protective means must be used (breathing, hearing, etc.) in accordance with the regula-
tions established in this regard.
If the unit is used in an inadequate manner or its components are altered in any way severe
material damage may occur and bodily harm may be caused to the operator, other personnel
and/or animals and may even cause death. SAGOLA S.A. accepts no responsibility in for any
damage caused through the incorrect use of the unit.
Always use approved breathing units in accordance with current Standards and Regulations in
order to protect yourself from emissions produced during application.
Never exceed the maximum air inlet pressure (8 bar). Excessive pressure will cause greater
environmental contamination. To provide the hose with compressed air for the pistol, fit a pressure
regulator and a safety valve.
As a general, preventive measure we advise you to wear goggles in accordance with the specific
environmental regulations and characteristics for the work centre.
Wear gloves when handling the product (see the manufacturer's recommendations) and clean
the gun.
If, when the gun is in use, the ambient noise level exceeds 85 dB (A) the use of approved ear
protectors is recommended.
The gun in itself does not propitiate any mechanical risk of perforations, impact or pinching,
except those deriving from incorrect installations and handling.
While work is in progress, no vibrations are transmitted from the gun to any part of the body of
the operator and reaction forces are minimal.
USE SAGOLA ANTISTATIC HOSES TO ELIMINATE POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL
DISCHARGES THAT MIGHT CREATE THE RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION.
Pay adequate attention when handling the gun in order to prevent any damage that might lead
to dangerous situations for the user or personnel standing near the unit, as a consequence of
leaks, breakages, etc. Do not use it if your mental capacity, perceptions and reactions are altered
due to substances such as alcohol, drugs, medicines, etc., or by tiredness or for any other reason.
The gun has been designed for use at ambient temperature. Its maximum service temperature is
50°C. Although the air temperature of the compressed air or product is higher, this must not
exceed the maximum average temperature in the body of the gun. If the temperature exceeds
o
43
C, it is necessary to use personal protective equipment, such as gloves to thermally insulate
your hands from the unit.
