To reduce the risks of fire or explosion, electrical shock
and the injury to persons, read and understand all

instructions included inthis manual. Be familiar with the

controls and proper usage of the equipment.

indicates a hazardous situation which, if not

injury.

HAZARD: INJECTION INJURY

A high pressure paint stream produced by this W ÷
equipment can pierce the skin and underlying

tissues, leading to serious injury and possible
amputation. See a physician immediately.

DO NOT TREAT AN INJECTION INJURY AS A
SIMPLE CUT! Injection can lead to amputation. See

a physician immediately.
The maximum operating range of the gun is 2800

PSi/193 BAR fluid pressure.
PREVENTION:

• NEVER aim the gun at any part of the body.

• Do not aim the gun at, or spray any person or
animal.

• NEVER allow any part of the body to touch the fluid
stream. DO NOT allow body to touch a leak in the

fluid hose.

• NEVER put your hand in front of the gun. Gloves
will not provide protection against an injection
injury.

• ALWAYS lock the gun trigger, shut the pump
off, and release all pressure before servicing,
cleaning the tip or guard, changing tip, or leaving
unattended. Pressure will not be released by
turning off the motor. The PRIME/SPRAY knob
must be turned to PRIME to relieve the pressure.

Refer to the Pressure Relief Procedure (page 7)

described in the pump manual.

• ALWAYS keep the tip guard in place while
spraying. The tip guard provides some protection

but is mainly a warning device.

• ALWAYS remove the spray tip before flushing or
cleaning the system.

• Paint hose can develop leaks from wear, kinking
and abuse. A leak can inject material into the skin.
Inspect the hose before each use. Do not use hose

to lift or pull equipment.

• NEVER use a spray gun without a working trigger
lock and trigger guard in place.

• All accessories must be rated at or above 2800
PSl/193 BAR. This includes spray tips, guns,

extensions, and hose.

HAZARD: HAZARDOUS VAPORS ,_
Paints, solvents, insecticides, and other I_ll

materials can be harmful if inhaled or come
in contact with the body. Vapors can cause severe

nausea, fainting, or poisoning.
PREVENTION:

• Use a respirator or mask if vapors can be
inhaled. Read all instructions supplied with

the mask to be sure it will provide the necessary

protection.

• Wear protective eye wear.

• Wear protective clothing as required by coating
manufacturer.

HAZARD: EXPLOSION OR FiRE
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.

Property damage and/or severe injury can

occur.

PREVENTION:

• Provide extensive exhaust and fresh air
introduction to keep the air within the spray

area free from accumulation of flammable vapors.
Solvent and paint fumes can explode or ignite.

• Do not spray in a confined area.

• Avoid all ignition sources such as static electric
sparks, open flames, pilot lights, electrical
appliances, and hot objects. Connecting or
disconnecting power cords or working light
switches can make sparks. Paint or solvent flowing

through the equipment is able to result in static

electricity.

• Do not smoke in spray area.

• Fire extinguisher must be present and in good
working order.

• Place paint pump in a well-ventilated area away
from the spray object. Flammable vapors are often
heavier than air. Floor area must be extremely welt

ventilated.

• The equipment and objects in and around the spray
area must be properly grounded to prevent static
sparks.

• Keep area clean and free of paint or solvent
containers, rags and other flammable materials.

• Use only conductive or grounded high pressure
fluid hose. Gun must be grounded through hose

connections.

• Power cord must be connected to a grounded
circuit.

• Always flush unit into a separate metal container,
at low pump pressure, with spray tip removed.
Hold gun firmly against side of container to ground
container and prevent static sparks.

• Follow the material and solvent manufacturer's
warnings and instructions. Know the contents of
the paints 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 manufacturer's safety
instructions.

• This product may be used only with water-based
materials or materials with a minimum flash point of
70°F (21°C) for spraying or cleaning. Do not spray
or clean with materials having a flash point less
than 70°F (21°C), such as solvent based lacquers,
enamels, and/or stain blockers. Flash point is the
temperature at which a fluid can produce enough
vapors to ignite.

• Plastic can cause static sparks. Never hang plastic
to enclose a spray area. Do not use plastic drop
cloths when spraying flammable materials.

• Use lowest possible pressure to flush equipment.

• Do not spray onto pump assembly.

HAZARD: EXPLOSION HAZARD DUE TO &_j'

INCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS

Will cause property damage or severe injury.
PREVENTION:

• Do not use materials containing bleach or chlorine.

• Do not use halogenated hydrocarbon solvents such
as bleach, mildewcide, methylene chloride and

1,1,1 - trichtoroethane. They are not compatible

with aluminum.

• Contact your coating supplier about the
compatibility of material with aluminum.

Important Electrical Information

IMPORTANT: Use only a 3-wire extension cord that
has a 3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle

that will accept the plug on the product. Make sure

your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy

enough to carry the current your product will draw.
An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage

resulting in loss of power and overheating. A 14
or 12 gauge cord is recommended (see chart), if

an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must
be marked with the suffix W-A after the cord type

designation. For example, a designation of SJTW-A
would indicate that the cord would be appropriate

for outdoor use.

Wagner Spray Tech accessory extension cords

recommended:

P/N 0090241 - 20 foot extension cord.
P/N 0090242 - 35 foot extension cord.

14

Do not use more than 50 feet of spray hose. If you

need to spray further than 50 feet from your power
source, use more extension cord, not more spray

hose.

100 feet

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.
