• Use automotive gasoline that has a pump octane number
of 86 or higher, or that has a research octane number of
91 or higher. Use of a lower octane gasoline can cause
persistent “pinging” or heavy “spark knock” (a metallic
rapping noise) which, if severe, can lead to engine
damage.
NOTE: If “spark knock” or “pinging” occurs at a steady
engine speed under normal load, change brands
of gasoline. If spark knock or pinging persists,
consult an authorized dealer of the engine
manufacturer. Failure to do so is considered
misuse, and damage caused by misuse is not

• Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/
gasoline mixture. Avoid getting dirt, dust, or water in the
fuel tank.
If you decide to use a gasoline containing alcohol (gasohol), be
sure its octane rating is at least as high as that recommended
by the engine manufacturer. There are two types of “gasohol”:
one containing ethanol, and the other containing methanol. Do
not use gasohol that contains more than 10% ethanol. Do not
use gasoline containing methanol (methyl or wood alcohol)
that does not also contain co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors
for methanol. Never use gasoline containing more than 5%
methanol, even if it has co-solvents and corrosion inhibitors.

les commandes et l’utilisation adéquate de l’équipement.
b) AVERTISSEMENT – Pour réduire le risque
d’incendieoud’explosion:
1. Ne pulvérisez pas de matières inammables
ou combustibles près d’une amme nue, de voyants lumineux
ou de sources d’ignition telles que des objets chauds, cigarettes,
moteurs, matériel et appareils électriques. Évitez de produire
des étincelles en connectant et en déconnectant les cordons
électriques.
2. Pour les appareils destinés à n’utiliser que des produits à l’eau – Ne
pulvérisez pas et ne les nettoyez pas avec des liquides inammables.
Exclusivement pour usage avec liquides à base d’eau.
3. Pour les appareils destinés à un usage exclusif avec des produits
à l’eau ou des produits minéraux de type alcool avec un point
d’éclair minimum de 21 ºC (70 ºF) – Ne pulvérisez pas et ne les
nettoyez pas avec des liquides ayant un point d’éclair inférieur à
21 ºC (70 ºF). Le point d’éclair est la température à laquelle un
uide peut produire sufsamment de vapeur pour s’enammer.
4. L’écoulement de peinture ou de solvant dans l’équipement
peut produire de l’électricité statique. L’électricité statique crée
un risque d’incendie ou d’explosion en présence de fumées
de peinture ou de solvant. Toutes les pièces du système du
pulvérisateur, y compris la pompe, l’ensemble du tuyau, le
pistolet de pulvérisation et les objets dans et autour de la zone
de pulvérisation doivent être correctement reliés à la terre
pour protéger contre les décharges d’électricité statique et les
étincelles. N’utilisez que des tuyaux conducteurs ou reliés à la
terre pour pulvérisateurs de peinture sous vide à haute pression,
spéciés par le fabricant.
5. Vériez que tous les conteneurs ou systèmes de stockage sont
reliés à la terre pour éviter les décharges d’électricité statique.
6. Connectez à une prise électrique avec prise de terre et utilisez
des rallonges électriques reliées à la terre. N’utilisez pas
d’adaptateur 3 à 2.
7. N’utilisez pas de peinture ou de solvant contenant du halon,
par exemple, le chlore, les agents antimoisissure à l’eau de
Javel, le chlorure de méthylène et le trichloroéthane. Ils ne sont
pas compatibles avec l’aluminium. Contactez le fournisseur de
revêtements pour connaître la compatibilité du matériau avec
l’aluminium.
8. La zone de pulvérisation doit toujours être bien aérée. Une
bonne quantité d’air frais doit constamment traverser la zone
de pulvérisation pour éviter les accumulations de vapeurs
inammables. Le système de pompage doit être placé dans une
zone bien aérée. Ne pulvérisez pas le système de pompage.
9. Ne fumez pas dans la zone de pulvérisation.
10. N’actionnez pas d’interrupteurs électriques, de moteurs ou autres
dispositifs produisant des étincelles dans la zone de pulvérisation.
11. Maintenez la propreté de la zone et veillez à ce qu’elle ne
contienne pas de conteneurs de peinture ou de solvant, de
chiffons et autres matières inammables.
12. Sachez ce que contiennent la peinture et les solvants pulvérisés.
Lisez les ches de sécurité du matériel (MSDS) et les étiquettes
apposées sur les conteneurs de peintures et de solvants.
Respectez les consignes de sécurité du fabricant de peinture et
de solvant.
13. Placez la pompe à une distance minimum de 7,62 mètres (25
pieds) de l’objet à pulvériser, dans une zone bien aérée (ajoutez
de la longueur de tuyau si besoin est). Les vapeurs inammables
sont souvent plus lourdes que l’air. La zone près du sol doit être
très bien aérée. La pompe contient des pièces qui produisent des
arcs et émettent des étincelles pouvant enammer les vapeurs.
14. Le plastique peut causer des étincelles d’électricité statique.
N’accrochez aucun plastique dans une zone de pulvérisation
fermée. N’utilisez pas de toiles de protection en plastique quand
vous pulvérisez une matière inammable.
15. Ayez un extincteur en bon état de fonctionnement à portée de
main.
c) AVERTISSEMENT – Pour réduire le risque de
pénétration dans la peau :
1. Ne dirigez pas le pistolet sur et ne pulvérisez pas les
personnes ou les animaux.
2. N’approchez pas les mains ni d’autres parties du corps de la
sortie du produit. Par exemple, ne tentez pas d’arrêter une fuite
avec une partie du corps.
3. Utilisez toujours le protège-embout de la buse. Ne pulvérisez pas
sans que le protège-embout de la buse ne soit installé.
4. Utilisez exclusivement un buse de buse spécié par le fabricant.
5. Prenez garde quand vous nettoyez ou que vous changez les
embouts de buse. Si le buse se bouche pendant que vous
pulvérisez, verrouillez TOUJOURS la détente du pistolet, arrêtez
la pompe et libérez toute la pression avant de réparer ou de
nettoyer le buse ou le protecteur ou avant de changer d’buse. La
pression n’est pas libérée par l’arrêt du moteur. La poignée du
robinet-valve PRIME/SPRAY (AMORÇAGE/ PULVÉRISATION)

protecteurs de buse, les pistolets, les rallonges, les raccords et le
tuyau.
10. Verrouillez toujours la détente quand vous ne pulvérisez pas.
Vériez que le verrou de la détente fonctionne correctement.
Si nécessaire, desserrez le bouton de ensemble de support à
pistolet, puis engager le verrou de détente.
11. Vériez que toutes les connexions sont bien serrées avant
d’utiliser l’appareil.
12. Sachez comment arrêter l’appareil et le dépressuriser rapidement.
Soyez bien familiarisé avec les commandes. La pression n’est
pas libérée lorsque le moteur est arrêté. La poignée du robinet-
valve PRIME/SPRAY (AMORÇAGE/PULVÉRISATION) doit
être placée sur PRIME pour libérer la pression. Consultez la
PROCÉDURE DE DÉCOMPRESSION décrite dans le manuel de
la pompe.
13. Retirez toujours le buse de pulvérisation avant de rincer ou de
nettoyer le système.
REMARQUE À L’INTENTION DES MÉDECINS :
Les injections cutanées sont des lésions traumatiques; il importe
donc de les traiter sans délai. On NE DOIT PAS retarder ce
cause, celle-ci n’étant conséquente que dans le cas d’injection
directe de certains produits dans le système sanguin. Il pourrait
s’avérer nécessaire de consulter un plasticien ou un spécialiste
en chirurgie reconstructive de la main.
