Safety instructions for fine spray
systems
■
Keep your work area clean, well lit and free
of paint and solvents, cloths and other inflam-
mable materials. Possible risk of spontaneous
combustion. Have a fully functioning fire extin-
guisher available at all times.
■
Ensure adequate ventilation in the spray zone
and sufficient fresh air in the entire room.
Evaporation of flammable solvents will cause
an explosive environment.
■
Do not spray or clean with materials whose
ignition point is lower than 21°C. Use materi-
als based on water, non-volatile hydrocarbons
or similar materials. The evaporation of volatile
solvents will cause an explosive environment.
■
Do not spray near ignition sources such as
static electric sparks, open flames, ignition
flames, hot items, motors, cigarettes and sparks
caused by plugging in/unplugging power
cables or by operating switches. These ignition
sources could ignite a fire in the environment.
■
Do not spray any material if you do not know
whether it is potentially dangerous. Unknown
materials could cause hazardous conditions.
■
Wear additional personal protective equip-
ment such as suitable gloves and a protective
mask/respirator when spraying or handling
chemicals. Wearing appropriate protective
equipment for the conditions reduces your expo-
sure to dangerous substances.
■
Do not spray yourself, other people or ani-
mals. Keep your hands and other body parts
out of the spray jet. If the spray jet pierces the
skin, seek medical assistance immediately. The
sprayed material can even penetrate through a
glove and into the skin and thus into your body.
PDLS 5 A1
■
Do not treat such a penetration injury like a
normal cut. A high-pressure jet can inject tox-
ins into the body and cause serious injuries.
In the event of a chemical penetration of the
skin, seek medical assistance immediately.
■
Be aware of the potential hazards of the
sprayed material. Take note of the markings
on the container and the manufacturer's infor-
mation on the sprayed material, including the
instructions to use personal protective equip-
ment. The manufacturer's instructions are to
be followed to reduce the risk of fire or injuries
caused by poisons, carcinogens, etc.
■
Never spray without the nozzle head fitted.
Using a special nozzle with the appropriate noz-
zle head reduces the likelihood of high-pressure
jets piercing the skin and injecting poisons into
your body.
