Caution!
An incorrect setting of the oiler can lead to a danger of fire and
explosion!
• Oil mist emerging from the manual spraying apparatus can
generate a combustible or explosive mixture.
• In the right concentration with air oxygen, an explosive oil/air
mixture can form which through initial combustion can lead to an
explosion.
• Avoid ignition sources.
• As far as possible, do not align the exhaust flow of the manual
spraying apparatus in the direction of ignition sources.
• Do not extinguish fires with water!
• Use powder extinguishers on fires. Seek the prior advice of the fire
service.
• Ensure adequate ventilation of the work area or extraction of the
oil/air mixture. Avoid high room temperatures.
• Do not inhale oil mist, wear a protective mask. In the event of over
exposure to oil mist remove the person from the hazard area.
• Do not direct the exhaust flow of the manual spraying apparatus
towards clothing.
