IMPORTANT:
•
Do not allow anyone to operate AIR-SCRUB-R without first reading this
Operator Manual and becoming familiar with AIR-SCRUB-R operation.
•
Manufacturer of this AIR-SCRUB-R has gone to great extremes to
provide owner(s) and/or operator(s) with the finest equipment available
for its intended job function of filtering air/creating negative pressure in
industrial and construction job applications. Yet, the possibility exists the
AIR-SCRUB-R can be utilized in and/or subjected to job applications not
perceived and/or anticipated by manufacturer. Such misuse and/or
misapplication of AIR-SCRUB-R can lead to possibility of serious
damage, injury or even death.
•
It is responsibility of owner(s) and/or operator(s) to determine AIR-
SCRUB-R is utilized and/or operated within scope of its intended job
function.
•
It is responsibility of owner(s) and/or operator(s) to establish, monitor and
constantly upgrade all safety programs and/or practices utilized in and for
operation of AIR-SCRUB-R. Purpose of such programs is to provide for
owner(s') and/or operator(s') safety. Operators must be instructed to
recognize and avoid unsafe conditions associated with their work (29
CFR 1926.21 (b)(2)) and/or applicable updated revisions.
•
It is responsibility of owner(s) and/or operator(s) to determine no
modifications and/or alterations have been made to AIR-SCRUB-R.
Modifications and/or alterations can lead to possibility of serious damage,
injury or even death. It is responsibility of owner(s) and/or operator(s) to
make this Operator Manual available for consultation during all phases of
operation.
•
Refer to OSHA 2207 and/or applicable updated revisions which contains
all OSHA job safety and health rules and regulations (1926 and 1910)
covering construction.
CAUTION
The concept of portable, air filtering equipment has been successfully utilized
for many years as a practical solution to many types of air filtering/negative
pressure job requirements. The basic concept is proven and well accepted
within the associated marketplaces.
Use of an AIR-SCRUB-R requires strenuous work activity when moving the
equipment and when used in conjunction with other surface preparation
equipment either moving or emptying dust/debris collected. This type of work
activity can be considered to be greater in magnitude than that experienced
with the use of many other types of both light construction and lawn and garden
related equipment. This type of work activity should only be attempted by
operators of adequate physical size and stature, mental awareness, and
physical strength and condition.
The body parts most noticeably affected when using AIR-SCRUB-R or
equipment used in conjunction with AIR-SCRUB-R are the arms, hands, wrists,
shoulders, lower back and legs. Lifting and/or moving AIR-SCRUB-R can also
produce excessive stress/strain directly to the back muscles, spinal vertebrae
and many other body parts. Back related pain can be a side effect of such
activity. An operator with a chronic back related problem or a history of back
and/or other medically related problems should not attempt to utilize the AIR-
SCRUB-R. Use of the AIR-SCRUB-R may only aggravate this and any other
medically related problem.
Because of the diverse type of prevailing air filtering/negative pressure
conditions, operator experience levels and operator physical characteristics, no
warranty, guarantee, representation and/or liability is made by the manufacturer
as to the absolute correctness or sufficiency of any operational procedure,
operational position and/or technique. There is no absolute guarantee that an
operator of any given experience level, physical size and/or physical condition
will be immune to the possibility of and/or probable physical side effects of the
normal air filtering/negative pressure process.
Each potential operator of the AIR-SCRUB-R must be made aware of and
assume the operational and physical liability described and/or associated with
the air filtering process when utilizing the AIR-SCRUB-R.
Each potential
operator not willing to assume the operational and physical liability
described and/or associated with the air filtering process should not
operate the AIR-SCRUB-R.
Proper levels of operator experience, skill and
common sense are essential for maximizing the safe and efficient operation of
the AIR-SCRUB-R.
