SECTION 1
Keep oily rags, trash, leaves, litter or other L.
combustibles out of and away from the compressor.
Open all access doors and allow the enclosure to M.
ventilate thoroughly prior to attempting to start the
engine.
DO NOTN. operate compressor under low overhanging
leaves or permit such leaves to contact hot exhaust
system surfaces when operating the compressor in
forested areas.
Ethyl ether used in diesel engine ether starting aid O.
systems is extremely ammable. Change cylinders,
or maintain or troubleshoot these systems only in
well-ventilated areas away from heat, open ame or
sparks. DO NOT install, store or otherwise expose
ether cylinders to temperatures above 160 F (71 C).
Remove ether cylinder from the compressor when
operating in ambient temperatures above 60 F (16 C).
DO NOTP. attempt to use ether as a starting aid in
gasoline engines or diesel engines with glow plugs as
serious personnel injury or property damage may
result.
DO NOTQ. spray ether into compressor air lter or into
an air lter that serves both the engine and the
compressor as serious damage to the compressor or
personal injury may result.
Antifreeze compound used in air line anti-icer R.
systems contains methanol which is ammable. Use
systems and rell with compound only in well-
ventilated areas away from heat, open ames or
sparks. DO NOT expose any part of these systems or
the antifreeze compound to temperatures above
150 F (66 C). Vapors from the antifreeze compound
are heavier than air. DO NOT store compound or
discharge treated air in conned or unventilated
areas. DO NOT store containers of antifreeze
compound in direct sunlight.
Store ammable uids and materials away from your S.
work area. Know where re extinguishers are and
how to use them, and for what type of re they are
intended. Check readiness of re suppression
systems and detectors if so equipped.
MOVING PARTS1.5
Keep hands, arms and other parts of the body and A.
also clothing away from belts, pulleys and other
moving parts.
DO NOTB. attempt to operate the compressor with the
fan or other guards removed.
Wear snug-tting clothing and conne long hair when C.
working around this compressor, especially when
exposed to hot or moving parts inside the enclosure.
Keep access doors closed except when making D.
repairs or adjustments, performing service or when
starting or stopping the compressor.
Make sure all personnel are out of and clear of the E.
compressor prior to attempting to start or operate it.
Shut off engine before adding fuel, uid, coolant F.
lubricants, air line antifreeze compound or battery
electrolyte, or before replacing ether starting aid
cylinders.
Turn the battery disconnect switch to the off position G.
to prevent accidental engine operation prior to
attempting repairs or adjustments. Tag the battery
connection so others will not unexpectedly reconnect
it.
When adjusting the controls, it may require operation H.
of the equipment during adjustment. DO NOT come
in contact with any moving parts while adjusting the
control regulator and setting the engine RPM. Make
all other adjustments with the engine shut off. When
necessary, make adjustment, other than setting
control regulator and engine RPM, with the engine
shut off. If necessary, start the engine and check
adjustment. If adjustment is incorrect, shut engine off,
readjust, then restart the engine to recheck
adjustment.
Keep hands, feet, oors, controls and walking I.
surfaces clean and free of uid, water, antifreeze or
other liquids to minimize possibility of slips and falls.
HOT SURFACES, SHARP EDGES 1.6
AND SHARP CORNERS
Avoid bodily contact with hot uid, hot coolant, hot A.
surfaces and sharp edges and corners.
Keep all parts of the body away from all points of air B.
discharge and away from hot exhaust gases.
Wear personal protective equipment including gloves C.
and head covering when working in, on or around the
compressor.
Keep a rst aid kit handy. Seek medical assistance D.
promptly in case of injury. DO NOT ignore small cuts
and burns as they may lead to infection.
