Safety precautions for portable compressors
To be read attentively and acted accordingly before towing, lifting, operating, performing maintenance or repairing the compressor.
1.1
Introduction
The policy of Atlas Copco is to provide the users of their
equipment with safe, reliable and efficient products.
Factors taken into account are among others:
-
the intended and predictable future use of the
products, and the environments in which they are
expected to operate,
-
applicable rules, codes and regulations,
-
the expected useful product life, assuming proper
service and maintenance,
-
providing the manual with up-to-date information.
Before handling any product, take time to read the
relevant instruction manual. Besides giving detailed
operating instructions, it also gives specific information
about safety, preventive maintenance, etc.
Keep the manual always at the unit location, easily
accessible to the operating personnel.
See also the safety precautions of the engine and
possible other equipment, which are separately sent
along or are mentioned on the equipment or parts of the
unit.
These safety precautions are general and some
statements will therefore not always apply to a particular
unit.
Only people that have the right skills should be allowed
to operate, adjust, perform maintenance or repair on
Atlas Copco equipment. It is the responsibility of
management to appoint operators with the appropriate
training and skill for each category of job.
Skill level 1: Operator
An operator is trained in all aspects of operating the unit
with the push-buttons, and is trained to know the safety
aspects.
Skill level 2: Mechanical technician
A mechanical technician is trained to operate the unit the
same as the operator. In addition, the mechanical
technician is also trained to perform maintenance and
repair, as described in the instruction manual, and is
allowed to change settings of the control and safety
system. A mechanical technician does not work on live
electrical components.
Skill level 3: Electrical technician
An electrical technician is trained and has the same
qualifications as both the operator and the mechanical
technician. In addition, the electrical technician may
carry out electrical repairs within the various enclosures
of the unit. This includes work on live electrical
components.
Skill level 4: Specialist from the manufacturer
This is a skilled specialist sent by the manufacturer or its
agent to perform complex repairs or modifications to the
equipment.
In general it is recommended that not more than two
people operate the unit, more operators could lead to
unsafe operating conditions. Take necessary steps to
keep unauthorized persons away from the unit and
eliminate all possible sources of danger at the unit.
When handling, operating, overhauling and/or
performing maintenance or repair on Atlas Copco
equipment, the mechanics are expected to use safe
engineering practices and to observe all relevant local
safety requirements and ordinances. The following list is
a reminder of special safety directives and precautions
mainly applicable to Atlas Copco equipment.
These safety precautions apply to machinery processing
or consuming air. Processing of any other gas requires
additional safety precautions typical to the application
and are not included herein.
Neglecting the safety precautions may endanger people
as well as environment and machinery:
-
endanger people due to electrical, mechanical or
chemical influences,
-
endanger the environment due to leakage of oil,
solvents or other substances,
-
endanger the machinery due to function failures.
All responsibility for any damage or injury resulting
from neglecting these precautions or by non-observance
of ordinary caution and due care required in handling,
operating, maintenance or repair, also if not expressly
mentioned in this instruction manual, is disclaimed by
Atlas Copco.
