flammable materials (e.g. lacquers, adhesives, cleaning agents, etc.), there is an
increased risk to health as well as an increased risk of explosion and fire.
►You must ensure that the spray gun is properly earthed (grounded) either separa-
tely or in connection with the equipment with which it is being used (max. resistance
10 Ω).
