instructional materials attached to the compressor. Lack of information re-
garding hazardous conditions can cause property damage or personal injury.
•Periodically check all pressure relief valves for proper operation.
•Do not change the pressure setting of the pressure relief valve, re strict the

for the receiver or the service rating of the compressor, whichever is lower.
•Make a general overall inspection of the unit daily and correct any unsafe
situations. All fasteners and fittings must be kept tight.
•Reckless behavior of any kind involving compressed air is danger ous and
can cause very serious injury to the participants.
•Provisions should be made to have the instruction manual readily available

Oil and moisture residue must be drained from the air receiver
daily or after each use. Accumulations of oil residue in the receiver
can be ignited by embers of carbon created by the heat of compres-
sion, causing an explosion, damage to property and injury to per-
sonnel.
