  Safety of earthen

Electric shock and electrocution because of improper earthing!

• Contact a qualified electrician if in doubt about the proper earthing of a socket outlet.
• Under no circumstances modify the power plug of the device and do not remove its earthing.
• Do not use the paint sprayer if its power cord or power plug shows signs of damage or wear. If either the cord or its plug is damaged, the device must not be used and the cable must not be repaired by laymen. Instead, have a qualified electrician replace the cord.
• If the power plug does not match the socket, contact a qualified electrician and have a matching socket-outlet be installed.
• The power plug of the device must be connected to a properly earthed outlet socket. In case of the paint sprayer malfunctioning, the earthing aids in protecting the user and reduces the risk of electric shock by diverting the current.

Safety of extension cords

• Earthed sprayers require a three-conductor extension cord. Double insulated sprayers, however, can be connected to extension cords with two or three conductors.
• The size and capacity of the extension cord must increase along with the distance from the socket-outlet. Using cables with insufficient size and capacity will lead to a voltage drop, reducing the performance of the sprayer and potentially damaging it.
• If a single extension cord is used for multiple paint sprayers, the ampere indications stated on each of the respective nameplates must be added to determine the minimum requirements for the extension cord.
• The smaller the wire gauge, the greater the capacity of the wire.
• Always make sure that the extension cord is in pristine condition before connecting it to the device or the main supply. Do not use worn or damaged extension cords and instead have them be replaced or repaired by a qualified electrician.
• Do not expose extension cords to sharp edges or objects, heat, moisture, or moist environments
