Operating Instructions
1.
Wear clothes suitable for the job and for the work place including, safety shoes, hard hat,
hearing protection, non-fogging vented safety goggles, and dust respirator suitable for dust.
2.
Be sure all equipment is tested and tagged prior to use on any job.
3.
Connect hose to the dust extractor via a suitable 75mm dust hose with CamLoc fitting. If 50mm
hose is more practical, use the smaller hose after more than 5 meters of
3” hose. This is to
reduce the speed of the air/dust coming into the RP 4000.
4.
Connect the RP 4000 to suitable power outlet. This is normally 32A. If you need to connect
using extension cords please consult your supplier to confirm the best size conductor to use.
5.
Keep the RP 4000 clear of drainage pits and grates or any such hazard. Failure to comply could
result in bodily injury and or could damage the RP 4000 or property.
6.
Do not attempt to make any adjustments while the RP 4000 is in operation. Any adjustments
must only be performed when the RP 4000 is stopped and power disconnected.
7.
Drain the Compressor Tank at the end of every job. This is important so as to clear the tank of
water especially if the unit is operating in humid environments.
8.
WARNING! Breathable silica may be generated by use and maintenance of this the RP 4000.
Silica can cause severe and permanent lung damage, cancer, and or other serious diseases.
Do not breathe the dust. Do not rely on your sight or smell to determine if dust is in the air.
Silica may be in the air without a visible dust cloud. If air monitoring for silica is not provided by
your employer at your work site, you must wear appropriate respiratory protection when
operating or maintaining this equipment. Consult your employer for proper respiratory
protection.
