WARNING

SKIN INJECTION HAZARD

Fluid from the dispense valve, leaks, or ruptured components can inject fluid into your body and cause extremely serious injury, including the need for amputation. Fluid splashed in the eyes or on the skin can also cause serious injury.

D Fluid injected into the skin is a serious injury. The injury may look like just a cut, but it is a serious

injury. Get immediate surgical treatment.

D Do not point the dispense valve at anyone or at any part of the body.

D Do not put your hand or fingers over the dispensing nozzle.

D Do not stop or deflect leaks with your hand, body, glove or rag.

D Do not “blow back” fluid; this is not an air spray system.

D Always have the dispensing nozzle on the dispense valve when dispensing.

D Follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 if the tip clogs and before cleaning, checking or

servicing the equipment.

D Tighten all fluid connections before operating the equipment.

D Check the hoses, tubes, and couplings daily. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do not

repair high pressure couplings; you must replace the entire hose.

MOVING PARTS HAZARD

Moving parts can pinch or amputate your fingers.

D Keep clear of all moving parts when starting or operating the pump.

D Before checking or servicing the equipment, follow the Pressure Relief Procedure on page 8 to

prevent the equipment from starting unexpectedly.

FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARD

Improper grounding, poor ventilation, open flames or sparks can cause a hazardous condition and result in a fire or explosion and serious injury.

D Ground the equipment and the object being lubricated. Refer to Grounding on page 4.

D If there is any static sparking or you feel an electric shock while using this equipment, stop dis-

pensing immediately. Do not use the equipment until you identify and correct the problem.

D Provide fresh air ventilation to avoid the buildup of flammable fumes from solvents or the fluid

being dispensed.

D Keep the dispensing area free of debris, including solvent, rags, and gasoline.

D Do not smoke in the dispensing area.

TOXIC FLUID HAZARD

Hazardous fluid or toxic fumes can cause serious injury or death if splashed in the eyes or on the skin, inhaled, or swallowed.

D Know the specific hazards of the fluid you are using.

D Store hazardous fluid in an approved container. Dispose of hazardous fluid according to all local,

state and national guidelines.

hoses.

D Air compressor: Follow manufacturer’s recommen-

dations.

Ground all of this equipment:

D Pump: Use a ground wire and clamp as shown in

Fig. 1. Remove the ground screw (Z) and insert through the eye of the ring terminal at end of ground wire (Y). Fasten the ground screw back onto the pump and tighten securely. To order a

ground wire and clamp, order part number 222011.

D Dispensing valve: Ground through connection to a

properly grounded fluid hose and pump.

D Object being dispensed to: Follow your local code.

D Solvent pails used when flushing: Follow your local

code. Use only metal pails, which are conductive, placed on a grounded surface. Do not place the pail on a nonconductive surface, such as paper or cardboard, which interrupts the grounding continuity.

D To maintain grounding continuity when flushing or

relieving pressure, hold a metal part of the dispens-

ing valve firmly to the side of a grounded metal pail, then trigger the dispense valve.
