Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WaRnInG - Improper installation of
the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the green grounding wire
to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation
having a green outer surface with or without yellow
stripes is the grounding wire and must be connected
to the grounding pin.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman
if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if you are in doubt as to whether the
product is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have
the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120 volt
circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like
the plug illustrated below. Make sure that the
product is connected to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug. No adapter should be
used with this product.

WaRnInG - To reduce the risk
of fire or explosion:
1. Do not spray flammable or combustible
materials near an open flame, pilot lights
or sources of ignition such as hot objects,
cigarettes, motors, electrical equipment and
electrical appliances. Avoid creating sparks
from connecting and disconnecting power
cords.
2. For use with only water-based or mineral
spirit-type materials with a minimum flash point
of 21ºC (70º F) — Do not spray or clean with
liquids having a flash point of less than 21ºC
(70º F). Flash point is the temperature at which
a fluid can produce enough vapor to ignite.
3. Verify that all containers and collection systems
are grounded to prevent static discharge.
4. Connect to a grounded outlet and use
grounded extension cords (electric models
only). Do not use a 3 to 2 adapter.
5. Do not use a paint or solvent containing
halogenated hydrocarbons. Such as chlorine,
bleach mildewcide, methylene chloride and
trichloroethane. They are not compatible with
aluminum. Contact the coating supplier about
compatibility of material with aluminum.
6. Keep spray area well ventilated. Keep a good
supply of fresh air moving through the area
to keep the air within the spray area free from
accumulation of flammable vapors. Keep pump
assembly in well ventilated area. Do not spray
pump assembly.
7. Do not smoke in the spray area.
8. Do not operate light switches, engines, or
similar spark producing products in the spray
area.
9. Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent
containers, rags, and other flammable materials.
10. Know the contents of the paint and solvents
being sprayed. Read all Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS) and container labels provided
with the paints and solvents. Follow the paint
and solvent manufacture’s safety instructions.
