Service; Safety Rules For Spray Guns - Kawasaki 691562 Mode D'emploi

Never carry tool by the hose or pull on it to disconnect from air source.
Keep hoses from heat, oil and sharp edges. Check hoses for weak or worn
condition before each use, making certain that all connections are secure.
Secure work. When possible, the use of clamps or a holding device is much
safer than holding the work piece with your hands.
Keep protective guards in place and in proper working condition.
Maintain tools and equipment with care. They will function better and more safe-
ly when kept clean and in good working condition. Keeping the tool clean, dry, and
free of grime will add to its life and performance.
Childproof the workshop. The use of master switches and padlocks is highly
recommended. Remove starter keys where applicable.
Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service
or maintenance by unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instructions
in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or

SAFETY RULES FOR SPRAY GUNS

RISK TO BREATHING
• Spray materials may be harmful if inhaled, or if there is contact with the skin.
Adequate exhaust must be provided to keep the air free of accumulations of
toxic materials. For toxic vapors produced by spraying certain materials can
create intoxication and serious damage to health. Always wear safety glass-
es, gloves and respirator to prevent the toxic vapor hazard, solvent and point-
ing paint coming into contact your eyes or skin.
• Operate the Spray Gun in a well-ventilated area. Read and follow all safety
instructions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved res-
pirator designed for use with your specific application.

RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
• Avoid dangerous environments. Do not spray combustible/flammable liquid in a
confined area. Spray area must be well ventilated. Do not smoke while spraying
or spray where spark or flame is present. Do not use Spray Gun near gasoline
or other flammable materials. Operate the Spray Gun in a well-ventilated area.
Never use oxygen, combustible or other bottled gas as an air source. This could
cause explosion and serious personal injury. Fluid and solvent can be highly
flammable or combustible. Read and follow all safety instructions for the mate-
rial you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator designed for use
with your specific application.
• Fire extinguishing equipment must be present in the spray area.
RISK OF INJURY
• Air under pressure can cause severe injury. Always shut off air supply, drain
hose of air pressure and disconnect tool from air supply when not in use and
before changing accessories or when making repairs. Never direct air at your-
self or anyone else. Whipping hoses can cause serious injury. Always check
for damaged or loose hoses and fittings. Never use quick-change couplings
at tool. They add weight and could fail due to vibration. Instead, add a hose
whip and connect coupling between air supply and hose whip, between hose
whip and leader hose whip, or between hose whip and leader hose. Do not
exceed MAXIMUM AIR PRESSURE. Use clean, dry and regulated compressed
air. Never exceed maximum permissive operating pressure. Always use tool
a safe distance from other people in work area.
• Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean and oiled for best and safest per-
formance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
Wiping or cleaning rags and other flammable waste materials must be placed
in a tightly closed metal container and disposed of later in the proper fashion.
Do not direct paint stream at body. Use eye protection. Disconnect tool from
air supply hose before doing tool maintenance and during non-operation. For
emergency stopping and prevention of unintended operation, a ball valve near
the gun to air supply is recommended.
• Repetitive work motions, awkward positions and exposure vibration can be
harmful to hands and arms.
RISK OF BURNS
Never use homogenated hydrocarbon solvent, which can chemically react with
aluminum and zinc parts.
