SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Safety notices, marked with this symbol, are used in this
publication to emphasize that a hazardous condition exists that
could cause personal injury and/or damage to the equipment.
1. Read and understand the contents of this manual before installing,
operating or maintaining the compressor.
2. Electricity and compressed air are dangerous. When performing
maintenance or service work, make absolutely sure the electrical supply is
disconnected and locked out. The discharge air lines service valve
(customer furnished) must be closed and the compressor relieved of all
internal pressure. DO NOT rely on the discharge air line check valve.
3. Compressed air from this unit must not be used for breathing or food
processing without adequate filtering and monitoring to meet OSHA 29
CFR 1910 or FDA 21 CFR 178.3570.
4. Do not allow flammable, toxic or corrosive gases to enter the air inlet
system or electrical devices.
5. Never attempt to work on compressor or remove guards, panels,
covers, shields, etc. while the compressor is in operation.
6. Periodically confirm that all safety and shutdown devices are operating
properly.
7. Do not override any safety or shutdown device.
8. Make certain all associated pipe and equipment beyond this
compressor is compatible with maximum pressures and temperatures to
be encountered during normal and adverse operation. Do not use plastic
pipe in the compressed air system.
9. Keep doors closed during normal operation. The noise level inside
cabinet exceeds 90 decibels (dbA) and the operating temperature of some
components is sufficient to burn the skin.
10. Never assume it is safe to work on the compressor because it is not
operating. Many installations have automatic start/stop controls, and the
compressor may start at any time.
