Safety Instructions

GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term „power tool“ in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. WORK AREA SAFETY
   a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
   b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
   c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY
   a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
   b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
   c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
   d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

3. PERSONAL SAFETY
   a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
   b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
   d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
   e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection fa- colitis, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
   a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. Thecorrect power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
   c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
   e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
   f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
   g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. SERVICE
   a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS ON RISKS DUE TO VIBRATION
a) The declared vibration data represents the main applications of the tool, but different uses of the tool or poor main- tenance can result in different vibration data. This may significantly increase the vibration level over the total working period.
b) Additional safety measure shall be taken to protect the user from effects of vibration. Maintain the tool and its accessories, keep hands warm and organize work patterns and periods.
MACHINE SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS FOR SPRAY GUNS
a) Wear ear protectors when operating the spray gun. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
b) Only spray coating materials (paints, varnishes, glazes, etc.) with a flashpoint of 55  °C and higher without additional warning. Hazard classes A II and A III (German classification of coating material, see material tin).
c) Make sure the spray gun is not used in workplaces covered by the explosion’s nor ejection regulations.
d) Keep away from sources of ignition like open fires, lit cigarettes, cigars or pipes, sparks, glowing wires and hot surfaces when spraying.
e) Do not spray materials whose hazard potential is not known.
f) Make sure the spray gun is unplugged before carrying out maintenance or cleaning works. g) Do not use the spray gun to spray flammable materials.
h) Do not clean the gun with flammable solvents (flashpoint under 55 °C).
i) Beware of hazards that can arise from the sprayed materials. Observe the information and specifications provided with the materials.
j) Wear a breathing mask and eye protection when spraying.
k) Never point the spray gun at yourself, at other people or at animals.
l) Make sure that no solvent vapours are sucked in by the spray gun.
m) Ensure adequate ventilation when working indoors.
n) Pay attention to the wind when working outdoors, it can carry the coating material across greater distances and cause damage.
o) Do not let children handle the spray gun.
p) Never open the spray gun yourself in order to carry out repairs in the electrical system.
q) Do not lay the spray gun.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the power tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the power tool’s construction and design:

• Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask is not worn.
• Damage to hearing if effective hearing protection is not worn.
• Damages to health resulting from vibration emission if the power tool is being used over longer period of time or not adequately managed and properly maintained.

WARNING! This power tool produces an electromagnetic field during operation. This field may under some circumstances interfere with active or passive medical implants. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury, we recommend persons with medical implants to consult their physician and the medical implant manufacturer before operating this machine.

Coating materials

Suitable materials: Water- and solvent-based paints, finishes, primers, 2-component paints, clear finishes, automotive finishes, staining sealers and wood sealer-preservatives.
Not suitable materials: Wall paints (emulsion paints), alkali and acidic paints. Materials with a flashpoint below 55 °C.
The paints usually need to be diluted for use with the spray gun. You will find guidelines for sprayable dilutions in the following viscos- ity table (viscosity = consistency of the paint). You can achieve the correct dilution by using the viscosity test cup.

Measuring the viscosity

Dip the viscosity test cup completely into the spray material. Hold the test cup up and measure the time (in seconds) until the liquid empties out. Compare the measured “runout time” with the viscosity table.

Noise & Vibration

The values given in these instructions have been measured in accordance with a stand- radioed measurement procedure specified in EN  60745 & EN 50580 and can be used to compare tools. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission during actual use can differ from the declared total value depending on the use of the tool.
Warning! It is necessary to identify safety measures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).
Try to minimize the impact of vibration and noise. Exemplary measures to reduce vibration exposure include wearing gloves while using the tool, limiting working time, and using accessories in good condition.

Care & Maintenance

Caution! Make sure the tool is switched off and unplugged.

• Clean air cap, nozzles, feed tube and container after every use and particularly if:
  • no material emerges – the material drips
  • the atomization is too coarse
  • Always keep the tool clean, dry and free of oil or grease.
• Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst cleaning.
• For safe and proper working, always keep the machine and ventilation slots clean.
• Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign matter has entered the grills near the motor and around the on/off switch. Use a soft brush to remove any accumulated residue.
• If the body of the tool needs cleaning, wipe it with a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but nothing like alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.
• Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
• Clean and lubricate the sealings at regular intervals.
