BASIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
4.1
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE OPERATOR
Keep this operating manual at hand near the device at all times.
Always follow local regulations concerning accident prevention regulations.
4.1.1 ELECTRICAL DEVICES AND EQUIPMENT
Danger of electric shock!
Danger to life from electric shock
Prepare device in accordance with the local safety requirements with regard to the
operating mode and ambient influences.
May only be maintained by skilled electricians or under their supervision. With open
housings, the mains voltage poses a danger.
Operate device in accordance with the safety regulations and electrotechnical
regulations.
Must be repaired immediately in the event of problems.
Decommission if device poses a danger or is damaged.
Must be de-energized before work is commenced. Inform personnel about planned
work. Observe electrical safety regulations.
Ground all devices to a common grounding point.
Only operate the device with a properly installed socket with a protective ground
wire connection.
Keep liquids away from electrical devices.
4.1.2 A SAFE WORK ENVIRONMENT
Hazard due to dangerous fluids or vapors!
Severe or fatal injuries due to explosion hazard or inhalation, swallowing or contact with
the skin or eyes.
Ensure that the floor in the working area is static dissipative in accordance with
EN 61340-4-1 (resistance must not exceed 100 MΩ).
Paint mist extraction systems/ventilation systems must be fitted on site according
to local regulations.
Make sure that the ground connection and potential equalization of all system parts
are reliable and continuous and can withstand the expected stress (e.g., mechanical
stress, corrosion).
Ensure that product hoses/air hoses adapted to the working pressure are used.
Ensure that personal protective equipment (see Chapter 4.2.1) is available and is
used.
Ensure that all persons within the working area wear static dissipative shoes.
Footwear must comply with EN 20344. The measured insulation resistance must not
exceed 100 MΩ.
Ensure that during spraying, persons wear static dissipative gloves. The grounding
takes place via the spray gun handle or the trigger.
Protective clothing, including gloves, must comply with EN 1149-5. The measured
insulation resistance must not exceed 100 MΩ.
