Safety Section
Inhaling freon gas through a lit cigarette or other
smoking method or inhaling fumes released from a
flame contacting freon can cause bodily harm or
death. Do not smoke when servicing air conditioners
or wherever freon gas may be present.
Never put maintenance fluids into glass containers.
Use all cleaning solutions with care.
Do not use steam, solvent, or high pressure to
clean electrical components.
Report all needed repairs.
Inspect the part of the chain that is normally oper-
ated over the crosshead roller. When the chain
bends over the roller, the movement of the parts
against each other causes wear.
Inspect to be sure that chain link pins do not extend
outside of the bore hole.
If any single link pin is extended beyond its con-
necting corresponding link, it should be suspected
of being broken inside of its bore hole.
Inspect the chain anchor and the anchor links for
wear.
