H. 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.
I.
Replace damaged fuel tanks or lines immediately
rather than attempt to weld or otherwise repair
them. DO NOT store or attempt to operate the
compressor with any known leaks in the fuel sys-
tem. Tag the compressor and render it inopera-
tive until repair can be made.
J. Remove any acoustical material or other material
that may be damaged by heat or that may sup-
port combustion and is in close proximity, prior to
attempting weld repairs.
K. Keep suitable fully charged Class BC or ABC fire
extinguisher or extinguishers nearby when ser-
vicing and operating the compressor.
L. Keep oily rags, trash, leaves, litter or other com-
bustibles out of and away from the compressor.
M. Open all access doors and allow the enclosure to
ventilate thoroughly prior to attempting to start
the engine.
N. DO NOT operate compressor under low over-
hanging leaves or permit such leaves to contact
hot exhaust system surfaces when operating the
compressor in forested areas.
O. Ethyl ether used in diesel engine ether starting
aid systems is extremely flammable. Change cyl-
inders, or maintain or troubleshoot these sys-
tems only in well-ventilated areas away from
heat, open flame or sparks. DO NOT install,
store or otherwise expose ether cylinders to tem-
peratures above 160 °F (71 °C). Remove ether
cylinder from the compressor when operating in
ambient temperatures above 60 °F (16 °C).
P. DO NOT 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.
Q. DO NOT spray ether into compressor air filter or
into an air filter that serves both the engine and
the compressor as serious damage to the com-
pressor or personal injury may result.
R. Antifreeze compound used in air line anti-icer
systems contains methanol which is flammable.
Use systems and refill with compound only in
well-ventilated areas away from heat, open
flames or sparks. DO NOT expose any part of
these systems or the antifreeze compound to
10
temperatures above 150 °F (66 °C). Vapors from
the antifreeze compound are heavier than air.
DO NOT store compound or discharge treated
air in confined or unventilated areas. DO NOT
store containers of antifreeze compound in direct
sunlight.
S. Store flammable fluids and materials away from
your work area. Know where fire extinguishers
are and how to use them, and for what type of
fire they are intended. Check readiness of fire
suppression
systems and detectors
equipped.
T. DO NOT operate the compressor without proper
flow of cooling air or water or with inadequate
flow of lubricant or with degraded lubricant.
U. 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.

MOVING PARTS
WARNING
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.
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. Make sure all personnel are out of and/or clear of
the compressor prior to attempting to start or
operate it.
E. When adjusting the controls, it may require oper-
ation 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
