PRECAUTIONS ON USING THE COM-
PRESSOR
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Most accidents that result from compressor op-
eration and maintenance are caused by the fail-
ure to observe basic safety rules or precautions.
An accident can often be avoided by recognizing
a potentially hazardous situation before it occurs,
and by observing appropriate safety procedures.
Basic safety precautions are outlines in the
"SAFETY" section of this Instruction Manual and
in the sections which contain the operation and
maintenance instructions.
Hazards that must be avoided to prevent bodily
injury or machine damage are identified by
WARNINGS on the compressor and in this In-
struction Manual.
Never use this compressor in a manner that has
not been specifically recommended by manufac-
turer, unless you first confirm that the planned
use will be safe for you and others.
