BREATHING AIR PRECAUTION
NorthStar air compressors are not designed, intended
or approved for breathing air. Compressed air should not
be used for breathing air applications unless treated in
accordance with all applicable codes and regulations.
Before signing the delivery receipt, inspect for
damage and missing parts. If damage or missing parts
are apparent, make the appropriate notation on the
delivery receipt, then sign the receipt. Immediately
contact the carrier for an inspection. All material must be
held in the receiving location for the carrier's inspection.
Delivery receipts that have been signed without a
notation of damage or missing parts are considered to
be delivered "clear" Subsequent claims are then
considered to be concealed damage claims. Settle
damage claims directly with the transportation company.
If you discover damage after receiving the air
compressor (concealed damage), the carrier must be
notified within 15 day of receipt and an inspection must
requested by telephone with confirmation in writing. On
concealed damage claims, the burden of establishing
that the compressor was damaged in transit reverts back
to the claimant.
Read the compressor nameplate to verify it is the
model ordered, and read the motor nameplate to verify it
is compatible with your electrical conditions. Make sure
electrical enclosures and components are appropriate.
