and the warning instructions.
Always follow local regulations concerning occupational safety and accident
prevention.
Anyone tted with a pacemaker must not enter the high-voltage area!
4.2.1 SAFE HANDLING OF WAGNER SPRAY DEVICES
The spray jet is under pressure and can cause dangerous injuries.
Avoid injection of paint or ushing agents:
Never point the spray gun at people.
Never reach into the spray jet.
Before all work on the device, in the event of work interruptions and functional faults:
- Switch o the energy/compressed air supply.
- Relieve the pressure from the spray gun and device.
- Secure the spray gun against actuation.
- In the event of functional faults, remedy the fault as described in the "Troubleshooting"
chapter.
If necessary, or at least every 12 months, the liquid ejection devices should be checked
by an expert (e.g. Wagner service technician) to ensure their safe operational condition
in accordance with the guidelines for liquid ejection devices (ZH1/406 and BGR500
Part2 Chapter2.29 and 2.36).
- For shut down devices, the examination can be suspended until the next start-up.
Carry out the work steps as described in the "Pressure Relief" chapter:
- If pressure relief is required.
- If the spraying work is interrupted or stopped.
- Before the device is cleaned on the outside, checked or serviced.
- Before the spray nozzle is installed or cleaned.
In the event of skin injuries caused by paint or ushing agents:
Note the paint or ushing agent that you have been using.
Consult a doctor immediately.
Avoid risk of injury from recoil forces:
Ensure that you have firm footing when operating the spray gun.
Only hold the spray gun brie y in a position.
Ensure that there are no ignition sources such as naked ames, sparks, glowing wires,
or hot surfaces in the vicinity. Do not smoke.
Ensure that the pipe joints, hoses, equipment parts and connections are permanently,
technically leak-proof:
- Periodic preventative maintenance and service (replacing hoses, checking tightness
of connections, etc.).
- Regular monitoring of leaks and defects via visual inspection and odor testing, e.g.,
daily before commissioning, at the end of work or weekly.
In the event of defects, immediately bring the device or system to a stop and arrange
to have repairs carried out immediately.

VM 500
OPERATING MANUAL
EDITION 08/2014 ORDER NUMBER DOC2318724
4.2.3 MATERIAL HOSES
Ensure that the hose material is chemically resistant to the sprayed products and the
ushing agents used.
Ensure that the product hose is suitable for the pressure generated.
Ensure that the following information can be seen on the high pressure hose:
- Manufacturer
- Permissible operating pressure
- Date of manufacture
Make sure that the hoses are laid only in suitable places. Hoses should not be laid in the
following places under any circumstances:
- In high-traffic areas
- At sharp edges
- On moving parts
- On hot surfaces
Ensure that the hoses are never run over by vehicles (e.g. fork lifts), or that the hoses are
never put under pressure from the outside in any other way.
Ensure that the hoses are never kinked. Observe maximum bending radii.
Make sure that the hoses are never used to pull or move the equipment.
Suction hoses may not be subjected to pressure.
Several liquids have a high expansion coe cient. In some cases their volume can rise with
consequent damage to pipes, ttings, etc. and cause uid leakage.
When the pump sucks liquid from a closed tank, ensure that air or a suitable gas can enter
the tank. Thus a negative pressure is avoided. The vacuum could implode the container
(squeeze) and can cause it to break. The container would leak and the liquid would ow
out.
The pressure created by the pump is a multiplication of the inlet air pressure.
4.2.2 GROUNDING THE DEVICE
Friction, owing liquids and air or electrostatic coating processes create charges. Flames or
sparks can form during discharge. Grounding prevents electrostatic charging.
Ensure that the device is grounded. See chapter "Grounding".
Ground the work pieces to be coated.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are grounded, e.g., that they are wearing
static dissipative shoes.
Wear static dissipative gloves when spraying. The grounding takes place via the spray
gun handle.
The spray substance supply (spray substance tank, pump, etc.) must be grounded.
17
VM 500
OPERATING MANUAL
EDITION 08/2014 ORDER NUMBER DOC2318724
4.2.4 CLEANING AND FLUSHING
Relieve the pressure from the device.
De-energize the device electrically.
Preference should be given to non- ammable cleaning and ushing agents.
Observe the speci cations of the paint manufacturer.
Ensure that the ash point of the cleaning agent is at least 15 K above the ambient
temperature or that cleaning is undertaken at a cleaning station with technical
ventilation.
Take measures for workplace safety (see Chapter 4.1.3).
When commissioning or emptying the device, please note that an explosive mixture
may temporarily exist inside the lines and components of equipment:
- depending on the coating product used,
- depending on the ushing agent (solvent) used,
explosive mixture inside the lines and items of equipment.
Only electrically conductive tanks may be used for cleaning and ushing agents.
The containers must be grounded.
An explosive gas/air mixture forms in closed containers.
Never spray into a closed tank when using solvents for ushing.
External cleaning
When cleaning the exterior of the device or its parts, also observe the following:
Disconnect the pneumatic supply line.
Use only moistened cloths and brushes. Never use abrasive agents or hard objects and
never spray cleaning agents with a gun. Cleaning the device must not damage it in any
way.
Ensure that no electrical component is cleaned with nor even immersed into solvent.
Which cleaning agent is used to clean the spray gun depends on which parts of the
spray gun have to be cleaned and which product has to be removed. When cleaning the
spray gun, only use non-polar cleaning agents to prevent conductive residues on the
surface of the spray gun. Should it however, be necessary to use a polar cleaning agent,
all residues of this cleaning agent have to be removed by using a non-conductive and
non-polar cleaning agent, once the cleaning is nished.
4.2.5 HANDLING HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS, VARNISHES AND PAINTS
When preparing or working with lacquer and when cleaning the device, follow the
working instructions of the manufacturer of the lacquers, solvents and cleaning agents
being used.

pistons etc. Signs of wear traced back to these products are not covered by this warranty.
Components that have not been manufactured by WAGNER are subject to the original
warranty of the manufacturer.
Replacement of a component does not extend the period of warranty of the device.
The device should be inspected immediately upon receipt. To avoid losing the warranty,
we or the supplier company are to be informed in writing about obvious faults within
14days upon receipt of the device.
We reserve the right to have the warranty compliance met by a contracting company.
The services provided by this warranty are dependent on evidence being provided in the
form of an invoice or delivery note. If the examination discovers that no warranty claim
exists, the costs of repairs are charged to the purchaser.
It is clearly stipulated that this warranty claim does not represent any constraint on statutory
regulations or regulations agreed to contractually in our general terms and conditions.
