RISK TO BREATHING (ASPHYXIATION)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
• The compressed air directly from your
compressor is not safe for breathing. The
air stream may contain carbon monoxide,
toxic vapors, or solid particles from the air
tank. Breathing these contaminants can
cause serious injury or death.
• Never use air obtained directly from
the compressor to supply air for human
consumption. The compressor is not
equipped with suitable filters and in-line
safety equipment for human consumption.
• Exposure to chemicals in dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities may be
harmful.
• Sprayed materials such as paint, paint
solvents, paint remover, insecticides,
weed killers, may contain harmful
vapors and poisons.
• Work in an area with good cross
ventilation. Read and follow the safety
instructions provided on the label or
safety data sheets for the materials you
are spraying. Always use certified safety
equipment: NIOSH/OSHA respiratory
protection or properly fit ting face mask
designed for use with your specific
application.
RISK OF BURSTING
Air Tank:
On February 26, 2002, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission published
Release # 02-108 concerning air compressor tank safety:
Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life. Tank life is dependent upon
several factors, some of which include operating conditions, ambient conditions, proper
installations, field modifications, and the level of maintenance. The exact effect of these
factors on air receiver life is difficult to predict.
If proper maintenance procedures are not followed, internal corrosion to the inner wall
of the air receiver tank can cause the air tank to unexpectedly rupture allowing
pressurized air to suddenly and forcefully escape, posing risk of injury to consumers.
Your compressor air tank must be removed from service by the end of the year shown
on your tank warning label.
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank, and result in a
violent air tank explosion:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Failure to properly drain condensed water
from air tank, causing rust and thinning of
the steel air tank.
• Drain air tank daily or after each use.
If air tank develops a leak, replace it
immediately with a new air tank or
replace the entire compressor.
• Modifications or attempted repairs to
the air tank.
• Never drill into, weld, or make any
modifications to the air tank or its
attachments. Never attempt to repair a
damaged or leaking air tank.
Replace with a new air tank.
• Unauthorized modifications to the Safety
Valve (G) or any other components which
control air tank pressure.
• The air tank is designed to withstand
specific operating pressures. Never make
adjustments or parts substitutions to alter
the factory set operating pressures.
