4.2 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR STAFF
Use only an original WAGNER powder hose.
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,
– on sharp edges,
– on moving parts or
– 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.
The electrostatic charge may, in certain cases, give rise to electrostatic charges on the
device. This may result in the formation of sparks or ames when discharging.
Ensure that the device is grounded before each coating process.
Ground the work pieces to be coated.
Ensure that all persons inside the working area are grounded, e.g., by wearing
electrostatically conductive shoes.
The functionality of grounding cables must be checked regularly (see EN 60204).
Do not point spray guns at people.
Before all work on the device, in the event of work interruptions and functional faults:
– Switch o the energy/compressed air supply.
– Secure the spray gun against actuation.
– Relieve pressure on spray gun and device.
– In case of functional faults: Identify and correct the problem, proceed as described
in the "Fault Recti cation" chapter.
Always follow the information in this manual, particularly the general safety instructions
and the warning instructions.
Always follow local regulations concerning occupational safety and accident prevention.
Under no circumstances may people with pacemakers enter the area where the high-
voltage eld between the spray gun and the work piece to be coated builds up!
