KVG60 Series Safety instructions General safety instructions The correct use of pneumatic equipment within a system is the responsibility of the system designer or the person who determines its technical specifications. The use of safety guards is recommended to minimise the risk of injury to persons; pay close attention to the fact that compressed air may lead to the explosion of closed containers, and vacuum may lead to the implosion of closed containers.
KVG60 Series Assembly Compressed air may be dangerous if used by unskilled personnel. Assembling, using and maintaining systems should solely be carried out by experienced and specially trained per- sonnel. Both for fastening and supplying, solely use the bores and methods provided by the manufacturer.
