SAFETY
or at a minimum of at least weekly to make sure it
is not blocked, clogged, obstructed or otherwise
disabled. DO NOT change the factory setting of the
relief valve.
M. If the compressor is installed in an enclosed
area, it is necessary to vent the relief valve to the
outside of the structure or to an area of non-expo-
sure.

1.4 FIRE AND EXPLOSION

When installing a Base Load Transfer (BLT)
System, remove jumpers between 16-17 & 18-19
(Dual Control Compressors) so the other com-
pressor does not backfeed defeating the shut-
down circuitry.
A. Clean up spills of lubricant or other combustible
substances immediately, if such spills occur.
B. Shut off the compressor and allow it to cool.
Then keep sparks, flames and other sources of igni-
tion away and DO NOT permit smoking in the vicin-
ity when checking or adding lubricant or when refill-
ing air line anti-icer systems with antifreeze com-
pound.
C. DO NOT permit fluids, including air line anti-icer
system antifreeze compound or fluid film to accu-
mulate on, under, or around acoustical material, or
on any external surfaces of the air compressor or
on internal surfaces of the enclosure. Wipe down
using an aqueous industrial cleaner or steam-clean
as required. If necessary, remove acoustical mate-
rial, clean all surfaces and then replace acoustical
material. Any acoustical material with a protective
covering that has been torn or punctured should be
replaced immediately to prevent accumulation of
liquids or fluid film within the material. DO NOT use
flammable solvents for cleaning purposes.
D. Disconnect and lock out all power at source prior
to attempting any repairs or cleaning of the com-
pressor or of the inside of the enclosure, if any.
E. Keep electrical wiring, including all terminals and
pressure connectors in good condition. Replace
any wiring that has cracked, cut abraded or other-
wise degraded insulation, or terminals that are
worn, discolored or corroded. Keep all terminals
and pressure connectors clean and tight.
F. Keep grounded and/or conductive objects such
as tools away from exposed live electrical parts
such as terminals to avoid arcing which might serve
as a source of ignition.
G. Remove any acoustical material or other materi-
2
al that may be damaged by heat or that may sup-
port combustion and is in close proximity, prior to
attempting weld repairs.
H. Keep suitable fully charged fire extinguisher or
extinguishers nearby when servicing and operating
the compressor.
I. Keep oily rags, trash, leaves, litter or other com-
bustibles out of and away from the compressor.
J. DO NOT operate the compressor without proper
flow of cooling air or water or with inadequate flow
of lubricant or with degraded lubricant.
K. DO NOT attempt to operate the compressor in
any classification of hazardous environment unless
the compressor has been specially designed and
manufactured for that duty.

1.5 MOVING PARTS

A. Keep hands, arms and other parts of the body
and also clothing away from couplings, fans and
other moving parts.
B. DO NOT attempt to operate the compressor with
the fan, coupling or other guards removed.
C. Wear snug-fitting clothing and confine long hair
when working around this compressor, especially
when exposed to hot or moving parts.
D. Keep access doors, if any, closed except when
making repairs or adjustments.
E. Make sure all personnel are out of and/or clear of
the compressor prior to attempting to start or oper-
ate it.
F. Disconnect and lock out all power at source and
verify at the compressor that all circuits are de-
energized to minimize the possibility of accidental
start-up or operation, prior to attempting repairs or
adjustments. This is especially important when
compressors are remotely controlled.
G. Keep hands, feet, floors, controls and walking
surfaces clean and free of fluid, water, or other liq-
uids to minimize the possibility of slips and falls.
1.6 HOT SURFACES, SHARP EDGES AND SHARP
CORNERS
A. Avoid bodily contact with hot fluid, hot coolant,
hot surfaces and sharp edges and corners.
B. Keep all parts of the body away from all points of
air discharge.
C. Wear personal protective equipment including
gloves and head covering when working in, on or
around the compressor.
D. Keep a first aid kit handy. Seek medical assis-
tance promptly in case of injury. DO NOT ignore
