Safety Precautions
What you must do
• Read these instructions before using
your air compressor.
• Ensure the compressor has been
installed, electrically connected
and piped in by a properly qualified
person.
• Ensure the compressor is kept
upright at all times.
What you must not do
• Do not attempt any maintenance
on the compressor until it has been
isolated from the power supply.
• Do not attempt any work on the
compressor until the air receiver
and pipe work systems are
depressurised.
• Compressed air is dangerous if
misused and can prove fatal. Avoid
any bodily contact with compressed
air.
• During operation the motor will
become quite hot to the touch.
Avoid contact to prevent burns.
At no time must the oil temperature
be allowed to exceed 100°C.
• Never tamper with the pressure relief
valve.
• Never change the oil when the
compressor is still warm. Take
necessary precautions to avoid
contact with the skin.
Bambi 1110S compressor oil does not
contain hazardous components and is
not required to be labelled dangerous,
according to the Classification,
Packaging and Labelling of Dangerous
Substances regulation:

Siting The Compressor
What you must do
• Provide adequate protection from
the weather.
• Site the compressor level in both
planes.
• As larger models are heavy, ensure
the surface has sufficient load
bearing capacity.
• Allow access for maintenance all
around the compressor.
• Site in a dry area, avoiding damp or
humid conditions. The site must be
dust free, well ventilated and have
a cool ambient temperature. 35°C
should be regarded as the maximum
allowable ambient.
What you must not do
• Enclose the compressor or allow
hot air generated by the motor to re-
circulate around the compressor.
