Foreword Operation & Maintenance Manual This compressor should NOT be used: A. For direct or indirect human consumption of the compressed air. B. Outside the ambient temperature range specified in the General Data Section of this manual. C. When an actual or foreseeable risk of hazardous levels of flammable gases or vapors exists.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Safety Precautions Never operate the compressor without first observing all safety warnings and carefully reading the Operation and Maintenance Manual shipped from the factory with this compressor. Ensure the operator reads and understands the decals and consults the manuals before operation or performing maintenance.
Safety Operation & Maintenance Manual Compressed Air Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly handled. Prior to performing maintenance or service on the compressor, ensure all pressure is vented from the system and the compressor cannot be started accidentally. Ensure the compressor is operating at the rated pressure and the rated pressure is known to all relevant personnel.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety Exhaust System Hot engine exhaust gas and hot exhaust system surfaces are produced during and after compressor operation. Avoid contact with exhaust gas and hot exhaust system surfaces. Keep flammable and combustible materials away. Do not operate compressor on, under, or near flammable or combustible materials.
Safety Operation & Maintenance Manual Should compressor oil come into contact with the skin, wash off immediately. Consult a physician if large amounts of compressor oil are ingested or if compressor oil is inhaled. Never give fluids or induce vomiting if the patient is unconscious or having convulsions. Safety data sheets for compressor and engine oils should be obtained from the oil supplier.
Operation & Maintenance Manual Safety WARNING Hot engine coolant and steam can cause injury. When adding coolant or antifreeze solution to the engine radiator, stop the engine and allow radiator to cool prior to releasing the radiator pressure cap. Using a cloth to protect the hand, slowly release the radiator pressure cap, absorbing any released fluid with the cloth.
