Danger of explosion and fire through sources of flame during spraying work
There may be no sources of flame such as, for example, open fires, smoking of cigarettes, cigars or tobacco
pipes, sparks, glowing wires, hot surfaces, etc. in the vicinity.
Danger
Electrostatic charging (formation of sparks or flame)
Under certain circumstances, electrostatic charging can occur on the unit due to the rate of flow of the
coating material when spraying. On discharging this can result in the emergence of sparks or fire. It is
therefore necessary that the unit is always earthed through the electrical installation. The connection must
Danger
take place through a correctly earthed two-pole-and-earth socket outlet.
Ventilation
Good natural or artificial ventilation must be ensured in order to avoid the risk of explosion or fire and damage to health during
spray work.
Secure device and spray gun
all hoses, fittings, and filter parts must be secured before operating spray pump. Unsecured parts can eject at great force
or leak a high pressure fluid stream causing severe injury.
always secure the spray gun when mounting or dismounting the nozzle and in case of interruption to work.
Recoil of spray gun
In case of high operating pressure, pulling the trigger can effect a recoil force of up to 15 n.
If you are not prepared for this, your hand can be thrust backwards or your balance lost. This can lead to
injury.
Continuous stress from this recoil can cause permanent damage to health.
Danger
Max. operating pressure
Max. permissible operating pressure for spray gun, spray gun accessories and high-pressure hose may not fall short of
the maximum operating pressure of 200 bar (20 MPa) stated on the unit.
Coating substance
Caution against dangers that can arise from the sprayed substance and observe the text and information on the containers or the
specifications given by the substance manufacturer.
Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential.
High-pressure hose (safety note)
attention, danger of injury by injection! Wear and tear and kinks as well as usage that is not appropriate to
the purpose of the device can cause leakages to form in the high-pressure hose. Liquid can be injected into
the skin through a leakage.
Danger
High-pressure hoses must be checked thoroughly before they are used.
Replace any damaged high-pressure hose immediately.
Never repair defective high-pressure hoses yourself!
Avoid sharp bends and folds: the smallest bending radius is about 20 cm.
Do not drive over the high-pressure hose. Protect against sharp objects and edges.
Never pull on the high-pressure hose to move the device.
Do not twist the high-pressure hose.
Do not put the high-pressure hose into solvents. Use only a wet cloth to wipe down the outside of the hose.
Lay the high-pressure hose in such a way as to ensure that it cannot be tripped over.
Electrostatic charging of spray guns and the high-pressure hose is discharged through the high-pressure hose. For this reason the
electric resistance between the connections of the high-pressure hose must be equal or lower than 197 kΩ/m (60 kΩ/ft.).
For reasons of function, safety and durability, only use genuine Titan high-pressure hoses and spray nozzles.

For overview see „Spare parts lists".
The risk of damage rises with the age of the high-pressure hose.
i
Titan recommends replacing high-pressure hoses after 6 years.
