Safety Regulations For Finecoat Spraying - WAGNER FineCoat Spray Pack 9950 PP Betriebsanleitung

Safety regulations for FineCoat spraying

All local regulations in force must be observed.
In order to ensure safe operation of the FineCoat
systems the safety regulations listed below must be
followed.
1. Read the operating manual carefully and follow the
instructions given in order to avoid possible danger.
2. Only coating materials with a flash point of 21 °C
or over may be sprayed, without additional
heating.
3. Use of this unit is prohibited in workshops which
come under explosion prevention ordinances.
4. Never operate near sources of ignition, e.g.,
open flames, cigarettes, cigars and pipes,
sparks, red-hot wires, hot surfaces, etc.
5. Warning! Risk of injury by injection!
Never point the spray gun at persons or animals
6. Always wear a protective mask when spraying.
In order to avoid occupational illnesses, always
follow the manufacturer's instructions for the
materials, solvents and cleaning agents used when
preparing and using such materials and when
cleaning the unit. Protective clothing, gloves and, if
necessary, skin protection cream should be used to
protect the skin.
7. Depending on the flow speed, an electrostatic char-
ge can, in certain cases, build up on the unit. This
could give rise to sparks and flames on discharging.
It is, therefore, necessary that the unit is earthed
over the electrical installation. The connection must
be made with a schockproof socket earthed con-
forming to specification.
8. For safety reasons, never use solvents based on
1,1,1 trichloroethane or methylene chloride.

9. Caution: When operating the FineCoat system
indoors or outdoors, make sure that no solvent
vapors are carried towards the turbo-blower and
that no solvent containing vapors can
accumulate in the near the turbo-blower.
Position the turbo-blower on the opposite side to
the object to be sprayed. Check the wind
direction when spraying outdoors. When
working indoors, a sufficient flow of air must be
ensured for extracting the solvent vapors.
A minimum distance of 3 m must be maintained
between the turbo-blower and the object being
sprayed.
10. Extraction systems should be installed on-site in
accordance with local regulations.
11. The work-pieces to be sprayed must be earthed.
12. For breaks in work always secure the spray gun
against unintentional operation (see page 24,
fig. 17).
13. Caution: never open the pressure tank during
operation, but only after releasing the operating
pressure! Check pressure gauge display.
14. When cleaning the unit with solvents, never spray
into a container with only a small opening
(bunghole). Formation of a explosive gas/air mixture.
The container must be earthed.
15. When transporting the unit, it must be suitably
secured for the particular means of transport.
16. Always remove the mains plug from the socket
before carrying out any work on electrical
components.
17. Work or repairs to the electrical fittings must be
carried out by a specialist electrician. This is also
valid even if there are references to such work in the
operating manual. No liability will be accepted for
improper installation.
18. The material hose must allow a maximum resistance
of one megaohm between the connections of the
pressure tank and the gun.
