HOW TO PREVENT IT
WHAT TO
LOOK FOR
WHAT COULD HAPPEN
When paints or materials are sprayed, they are broken
into very small particles and mixed with air. This will
cause certain paints and materials to become extremely
flammable.
Some paints and coatings may be harmful if inhaled or
allowed to come into contact with skin or eyes.
Compressed air may propel dirt, metal shavings, etc.
and possibly cause an injury.
Certain parts are under pressure whenever the gun is
connected to a pressurized air line. These parts may be
propelled if the gun is disassembled.
The solvents 1,1,1-Trichloroethane and Methylene
Chloride can chemically react with the aluminum used
in most spray equipment, and this gun and cup, to
produce an explosion hazard.

Materials
Never spray near open flames or pilot lights in stoves or
heaters.
Never smoke while spraying.
Provide ample ventilation when spraying indoors.
Use a mask or respirator if there is a chance of inhaling
toxic sprayed materials. Masks and respirators have
limits and will only provide protection against some
kinds and limited amounts of toxic material. Read mask
and respirator instructions carefully. Consult with a safety
expert or industrial hygienist if you are not sure about the
use of a certain mask or respirator.
Never point any nozzle or sprayer toward a person or part
of the body.
Always wear ANSI Z87 safety goggles or glases when
spraying.
Disconnect the gun from the air line, or completely
depressurize the air line whenever the gun is to be
disassembled.
Read the label or data sheet for the material you intend to
spray.
1. Do not use any type of spray coating material
containing these solvents.
2. Do not use these solvents for equipment
cleaning or flushing.
3. If in doubt as to whether a material is compatible,
contact your material supplier.
