Safety Warnings
This equipment is used to provide breathing gas for the purpose of underwater life support. Read this
manual in its entirety. Failure to heed the warnings and cautions contained in this document may
result in severe injury or death.
The equipment you will be using to manufacture air will expose you to both low and high-pressure gas.
Gas, even under moderate pressures, can cause extreme bodily harm. Never allow any gas stream to
be directed at any part of your body.
Any pressurized hose can cause extreme harm if it comes loose or separates from its restraint (or
termination) while under pressure and strikes any part of your body. Use appropriate care in making
and handling all gas connections.
Never mix the Compressor Lubricant with other lubricants. If unsure of
compressor lubricant remove all existing lubricant and replace with the proper
breathing air compressor lubricant prior to use. The use of improper lubricants can
lead to un-safe air quality, which may cause serious personal injury or death.
