Fire Safety
To avoid a fire or explosion, follow these instructions.
• Shut down all equipment immediately if you notice static sparking or arcing. Do not restart the
equipment until the cause has been identified and corrected.
• Do not smoke, weld, grind or use open flames where flammable materials are being used or stored.
• Provide adequate ventilation to prevent dangerous concentrations of volatile particles or vapors.
Refer to local codes or your material MSDS for guidance.
• Do not disconnect live electrical circuits when working with flammable materials. Shut off power
at a disconnect switch first to prevent sparking.
• Know where emergency stop buttons, shutoff valves and fire extinguishers are located.
• Clean, maintain, test and repair equipment according to the instructions in your equipment
documentation.
• Use only replacement parts that are designed for use with original equipment. Contact your EFD
representative for parts information and advice.
