CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR
Included with the 8000 are a 75007 Lapel CO Monitor and a 75008 Clip. It is recom-
mended that the operator and anyone in the working vicinity wear the detector. Failure to
do so could cause bodily injury and/or death. The use of detectors helps to verify if work
area is safe from Carbon Monoxide poisoning. The detector has an adhesive strip on the
back for mounting or can be worn with the included clip. It can detect as little as 100 ppm
(part per million) carbon monoxide gas at approximate relative humidity range of 33 to
50%. If the humidity is very high it can detect concentrations as low as 20 ppm. The pres-
ence of CO will change the impregnated silica color change from red to red/brown and
then to gray/black as the concentration levels increase. Once the detector is exposed to
fresh air, it will return back to red. Shelf life in an unopened pack is approximately two
to three years (expiration date is visible through unopened package on the back). Once
opened it should be replaced approximately every ninety days. Write date opened in
provided area on the front of the detector. Read further user directions on the back of the
detector.

WARNING:
VENTILATION IS REQUIRED IN CONFINED WORK ENVIRON-
MENTS. CARBON MONOXIDE IS A VERY TOXIC, COLORLESS AND ODOR-
LESS GAS. WHEN ENGINES OPERATE IN ENCLOSED SPACES, SUCH AS
WAREHOUSES, BUILDINGS UNDER CONSTRUCTION, OR TUNNELS, CARBON
MONOXIDE CAN ACCUMULATE QUICKLY AND REACH CONCENTRATIONS
THAT ARE DANGEROUS FOR HUMANS. IT CAUSES HEADACHES, DIZZINESS,
LETHARGY AND DEATH. CO IS USUALLY THE MAJOR CONCERN WHENEVER
LPG ENGINES ARE USED INDOORS
