Safety Notes

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

WARNING

Read all safety warnings and all in-

structions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mainsoperated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

 Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

 Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or

dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

 Keep children and bystanders away while operating a

power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical safety

 Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with

earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

English | 17

 Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.

There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

 Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.

Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

 Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away

from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

 When operating a power tool outdoors, use an exten-

sion cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

 If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoid- able, use a residual current device (RCD) protected

supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

 Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

 Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye

protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

 Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.

Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

 Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning

the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

 Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at

all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

 Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewel- lery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

 If devices are provided for the connection of dust ex- traction and collection facilities, ensure these are con-

nected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

Power tool use and care

 Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool

for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

 Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it

on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

Bosch Power Tools 2 609 007 771 | (28.2.14)

OBJ_BUCH-2024-002.book Page 18 Friday, February 28, 2014 9:28 AM

18 | English

 Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power

tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

 Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or

these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

 Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or bind- ing of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

 Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

 Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in ac- cordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.

Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Service

 Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair per-

son using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Warnings for Fine-spray Systems

 Keep area clean, well lit and free of paint or solvent containers, rags, and other flammable materials.

Spontaneous combustion may occur. Fire extinguisher equipment shall be present and working at all times.

 Provide for good ventilation in the spraying area and

for sufficient fresh air in the complete room. Evaporating inflammable solvents create an explosive environment.

 Do not spray and clean with materials that have a flash point of less than 55 °C. Use materials based on water,

non-volatile hydrocarbons or similar materials. Volatile evaporating solvents create an explosive environment.

 Do not spray in the vicinity of ignition sources, such as static electricity sparks, open flames, pilot lights, hot objects, engines/motors, cigarettes and sparks from plugging in or unplugging power cords or operating

switches. Such spark sources can ignite the spraying vicinity/environment.

 Do not spray any liquid of unknown hazard potential.

Unknown materials can create hazardous conditions.

 Wear additional protective equipment such as appro- priate protective gloves and protective masks or respi-

rators when spraying or handling chemicals. Wearing protective equipment for the appropriate conditions reduces the exposure to hazardous substances.

 Be aware of possible hazards from the spray material.

Observe the information on drums/tanks/tins as well as manufacturer information of the spray material, including the request to wear personal protective equip-

ment. The manufacturer's instructions are to be observed in order to reduce the risk of fire as well as injuries caused through toxins, carcinogens, etc.

 Keep the plug of the mains cord and the trigger switch of the spray gun clear of paint and other fluids. Never

hold the cord by its connectors to support it. Failure to follow the instruction can lead to electric shock.

 Supervise children. This will ensure that children do not play with the fine-spray system.

Products sold in GB only: Your product is fitted with a

BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362).

If the plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.

The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket elsewhere.

Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual current device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less.

Operation

 Before any work on the machine itself, pull the mains plug.

Preparing for Operation

 Spraying on the sides of water bodies (lakes, rivers, etc.) or neighbouring surfaces in the direct catchment area is not permitted.

When purchasing paint, varnish and spray material, pay attention to their environmental compatibility.

Preparing the Spray Surface

The spray surface must be clean, dry and grease-free.

– Roughen smooth surfaces and then remove the sanding dust.

When spraying, all non-covered surfaces can be soiled by the spray mist. Therefore, thoroughly prepare the area around the surface to be sprayed:

– Cover or mask off floors, furnishings, doors, windows as well as door and window frames, etc.

Preparing the Spray Material

– Stir the spray material thoroughly.

– Dilute the spray material if necessary.

Spray material Recommended dilution

0% Wood stains, oils, glazes, impregnations, anti-rust primers

Solvent-dilutable or water-dilutable lacquers, primers, radiator lacquers, thick-coat glazes

0 –10%

Emulsion paint, latex paint 0 –10%

 When diluting, pay attention that the spray material

and the diluting agent correspond. When using a faulty diluting agent, lumps can develop that can lead to clogging of the spray gun.

 When diluting the spray material, make sure that the flash point of the mixture is above 55 °C again after di-

luting. Diluting e.g. solvent-based lacquers lowers the flash point.

Filling in Spray Material (see figures C1 –C2)

Note: Remove the air hose 18 before pouring in spray material (quarter turn of the bayonet lock 19 counterclockwise; pull the bayonet lock 19 out of the port 8).

– When using large buckets, pour the spray material into a smaller transfer bucket 12 if necessary (e.g. 10-l wall paint into an empty 2.5 or 5.0-l bucket).

– Hold the spray gun in place with one hand and use the other hand to turn the container 7 towards the open symbol.

– Pull the spray gun off the container 7.

– If you are using already opened spray material, place the thoroughly cleaned filling sieve 11 on the container 7 to hold back any lumps of paint when pouring in.

2 609 007 771 | (28.2.14)

OBJ_BUCH-2024-002.book Page 22 Friday, February 28, 2014 9:28 AM

22 | English

– Pour the spray material into the container 7 up to no more

than the 1000 mark.

– Put the spray gun on the container 7. Turn the container 7 towards the close symbol until you hear the lock ring 6 engage.

– Carry out a test-spray run on a test surface. (see “Spraying”, page 22)

When the spraying pattern is perfect, start the spray job.

or

When the spraying result is not satisfactory or when no paint comes out, please continue as described under “Correction of

Malfunctions” on page 24.

Starting Operation

 Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the power source must correspond with the data on the type plate of the machine.

 Pay attention that the base unit cannot draw in dust or other contamination during operation.

 Make sure never to spray on the base unit.

 Stop spraying if fluid escapes from places other than the intended nozzle during spraying, and restore the

spray gun to its proper condition. There is a risk of electric shock.

 Do not direct the fine-spray system against yourself, other persons or animals.

Switching On (see figure D)

To save energy, only switch the fine-spray system on when you are using it.

– Check whether the correct nozzle cap is mounted (see

“Changing the Nozzle Cap”, page 21).

– Plug the mains plug into a socket outlet.

– Grasp the spray gun by the handle and point it at the spray surface.

– Set the sliding switch 24 to the required application to regulate the air flow (see also “Adjusting the Air Flow”, page 23).

– Pull the trigger switch 5 on the spray gun.

Note: When the base unit is switched on, air always flows out at the nozzle .

Switching Off

– Let go of the trigger switch 5 and slide the sliding switch 24 all the way to the left (position ).

– Pull the mains plug from the socket outlet.

Working Advice

Spraying (see figures E –H)

Note: Observe the wind direction when operating the power tool outdoors.

– Firstly, carry out a test-spray run and adjust the spray pattern and the spray material quantity according to the spray material. (For adjustments, see the following sections)

– Be absolutely sure to hold the spray gun at a consistent distance of 20 –25 cm perpendicular to the spray object.

– Begin the spraying procedure outside the target area.

2 609 007 771 | (28.2.14)

– Move the spray gun evenly cross-wise or up-and-down, depending on the spray pattern setting.

An even surface quality is achieved when the paths overlap by 4 – 5 cm.

– When spraying horizontal objects or spraying overhead, hold the spray gun at a slight angle and back away from the sprayed surface.

Risk of stumbling! Pay attention to possible obstacles in the room.

– Avoid interruptions within the spray surface.

Guiding the spray gun evenly will provide uniform surface quality.

Non-uniform clearance and spray angle lead to heavy formation of paint mist and thus to an uneven surface.

– End the spraying procedure outside the target area.

Never completely empty the container for the spray material by spraying. If the suction tube is no longer immersed in the spray material, the spray jet will be interrupted and this will result in an inconsistent surface.

If spray material settles on the air cap 2 or the nozzle cap, clean the components with the supplied cleaning brush 25.

Adjusting the Spray Pattern (see figure I)

 Never actuate the trigger switch 5 while adjusting the air cap 2.

– Turn the air cap 2 to the requested position.

Air cap Spray jet pattern Application

Vertical flat jet for horizontal working direction

Horizontal flat jet for vertical working direction
