OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and/or any applicable 
Federal, State or Local codes or regulations.
 DANGER
INHALATION HAZARD!
Death or serious injury can result from 
inhaling compressed air without 
using proper safety equipment. See 
OSHA standards and/or any 
applicable Federal, State, and Local 
codes, standards and regulations on 
safety equipment.
B. DO NOT use air line anti-icer systems in air lines 
supplying respirators or other breathing air utilization 
equipment and DO NOT discharge air from these 
systems into unventilated or other confined areas.
C. Operate the compressor only in open or adequately 
ventilated areas.
D. Locate the compressor or provide a remote inlet so 
that it is not likely to ingest exhaust fumes or other 
toxic, noxious or corrosive fumes or substances.
E. Coolants and lubricants used in this compressor are 
typical of the industry. Care should be taken to avoid 
accidental ingestion and/or skin contact. In the event 
of ingestion, seek medical treatment promptly. Wash 
with soap and water in the event of skin contact. 
Consult Material Safety Data Sheet for information 
pertaining to fluid of fill.
F. Wear goggles or a full face shield when adding 
antifreeze compound to air line anti-icer systems.
G. If air line anti-icer system antifreeze compound enters 
the eyes or if fumes irritate the eyes, they should be 
washed with large quantities of clean water for fifteen 
minutes. A physician, preferably an eye specialist, 
should be contacted immediately.
H. DO NOT store air line anti-icer system antifreeze 
compound in confined areas.
I. The antifreeze compound used in air line antifreeze 
systems contains methanol and is toxic, harmful or 
fatal if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin or eyes 
and avoid breathing the fumes. If swallowed, induce 
vomiting by administering a tablespoon of salt, in each 
glass of clean, warm water until vomit is clear, then 
administer two teaspoons of baking soda in a glass of 
clean water. Have patient lay down and cover eyes to 
exclude light. Call a physician immediately.
1.8
ELECTRICAL SHOCK
A. This compressor should be installed and maintained 
in full compliance with all applicable Federal, State 
and Local codes, standards and regulations, including 
those of the National Electrical Code, and also 
including those relative to equipment grounding 
conductors, and only by personnel that are trained, 
qualified and delegated to do so. 
B. Keep all parts of the body and any hand-held tools or 
other conductive objects away from exposed live parts 
of electrical system. Maintain dry footing, stand on 
insulating surfaces and DO NOT contact any other 
portion of the compressor when making adjustments 
or repairs to exposed live parts of the electrical 
system. Make all such adjustments or repairs with one 
hand only, so as to minimize the possibility of creating 
a current path through the heart.
C. Attempt repairs in clean, dry and well lighted and 
ventilated areas only.
D. DO NOT leave the compressor unattended with open 
electrical enclosures. If necessary to do so, then 
disconnect, lock out and tag all power at source so 
others will not inadvertently restore power.
