Air outlet valve and air net, i.e. pipes, couplings, manifolds, valves, hoses, etc. are in good repair, free
of wear or abuse.
Air cooling filters of the electrical cabinet are not clogged
9. On water-cooled compressors using open circuit cooling towers, protective measures must be taken to
avoid the growth of harmful bacteria such as Legionella pneumophila bacteria.
10. Do not remove any of, or tamper with, the sound-damping material.
11. Never remove or tamper with the safety devices, guards or insulations fitted on the machine. Every
pressure vessel or auxiliary installed outside the machine to contain air above atmospheric pressure shall
be protected by a pressure relieving device or devices as required.
12. Yearly inspect the reservoir. Minimum wall thickness as specified in the instruction book must be
respected. Local regulations remain applicable if they are more strict.
Also consult following safety precautions:
Safety precautions during installation
Safety precautions during maintenance.
These precautions apply to machinery processing or consuming air or inert gas.
Processing of any other gas requires additional safety precautions typical to the
application which are not included herein.
Some precautions are general and cover several machine types and equipment;
hence some statements may not apply to your machine.
1.5 Safety precautions during maintenance or repair
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting from neglecting these
precautions, or non-observance of the normal caution and care required for
installation, operation, maintenance and repair, even if not expressly stated, will be
disclaimed by the manufacturer.
Precautions during maintenance or repair
1. Always use the correct safety equipment (such as safety glasses, gloves, safety shoes, etc.).
2. Use only the correct tools for maintenance and repair work.
3. Use only genuine spare parts for maintenance or repair. The manufacturer will disclaim all damage or
injuries caused by the use of non-genuine spare parts.
4. All maintenance work shall only be undertaken when the machine has cooled down.
5. A warning sign bearing a legend such as "Work in progress; do not start" shall be attached to the starting
equipment.
6. Persons switching on remotely controlled machines shall take adequate precautions to ensure that there
is no one checking or working on the machine. To this end, a suitable notice shall be affixed to the remote
start equipment.
7. Close the compressor air outlet valve and depressurize the compressor before connecting or
disconnecting a pipe.
8. Before removing any pressurized component, effectively isolate the machine from all sources of pressure
and relieve the entire system of pressure.
9. Never use flammable solvents or carbon tetrachloride for cleaning parts. Take safety precautions against
toxic vapors of cleaning liquids.
10. Scrupulously observe cleanliness during maintenance and repair. Keep dirt away by covering the parts
and exposed openings with a clean cloth, paper or tape.
