4.0 SAFETY
4.1 General Safety Notes
Champion Compressors manufacture the Dominator Ci series so that they
can be operated safely. Persons operating the compressor are ultimately
responsible for their own safety. The following safety precautions are
suggested as a guide to reduce the risk of injuries throughout the life of your
compressor.
• Do not operate the compressor in an unsafe condition. Tag the
compressor with an appropriate Warning Tag and render it inoperative by
disconnecting the power at the source. This will prevent others from being
able to operate it until it is repaired.
• Correct hearing protection must be worn by person(s) working on or around
the compressor whilst the compressor is in operation.
• Before removing the oil filler cap ensure the compressor is not running and
is not pressurised. Shut down the compressor, isolate and bleed the
compressor air receiver before attempting to remove the oil filler cap. Vent
all internal pressure before opening any line, fitting, valve, drain plug,
connection or other component. If you are unsure how to do this contact
your nearest Champion Service Agent.
• Do not vary pressure switch setting from those listed in Section 8.3 without
prior approval from Champion Compressors’ Engineering Department.
Failure to comply to this may void your warranty.
• Do not tamper with or remove the integrated screw or air receiver safety
valves.
• Clean up spills of lubricant or other combustibles immediately. Keep
sparks and other ignition sources at a safe distance. Do not allow smoking
near the compressor.
• Keep electrical wiring and connections clean, free from dust, oil and tightly
clamped.
• Do not operate compressor or optional dryer with any protective guards or
panels removed. This includes the Ci 75 & 110 cabinet, fan & belt guards
or motor fan cowlings. Keep loose clothing and parts of the body away
from fans and other moving parts at all times.
