WARNING
Do not use any form of mineral oil or synthetic lubricant not rated for the fill containment
station use. Use only the recommended fill containment station lubricant as necessary.
2.1 Safety and Operation Precautions
Because a fill containment station is a piece of machinery with moving parts and high-pressure gas, the same
precautions should be observed as with any piece of machinery of this type where carelessness in operations
or maintenance is hazardous to personnel. In addition to the many obvious safety precautions, those listed
below must also be observed:
1. Read all instructions completely before operating any fill containment station.
2. For installation, follow all local safety codes and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration
(OSHA) standards.
3. Protect all power cables from contacting sharp objects. Do not kink power cables and never allow the
cables to contact oil, grease, hot surfaces, or chemicals.
4. Make certain that power source conforms to the requirements of your equipment.
5. Do not attempt to remove any parts without first relieving the entire system of pressure.
6. Do not operate the system at pressures more than its rating.
7. Periodically check all safety devices for proper operation. Do not change pressure setting or restrict
operation in any way.
8. Be sure no tools, rags or loose parts are left on the fill containment station.
9. Do not use flammable solvents for cleaning.
10. Exercise cleanliness during maintenance and when making repairs. Keep dirt away from parts by
covering parts and exposed openings with clean cloth or paper.
11. Do not operate the fill containment station without guards, shields, and doors secured in place.
12. Do not operate associated gas compressors in areas where there is a possibility of carbon monoxide,
carbon dioxide, nitrogen, or flammable or toxic fumes.
13. Inspect unit daily to observe and correct any unsafe operating conditions found.
14. Compressed air can be a serious hazard. Always use caution. Never direct air stream at any part of the
body as this can cause injuries.
15. Compressed air from this machine must not be used for food processing or breathing air without
adequate downstream filters, purifiers and controls and periodic air quality testing.
16. Always use an air pressure-regulating device at the point of use, and do not use air pressure greater
than marked maximum pressure.
17. Check hoses for weak or worn conditions before each use and make certain that all connections are
secure.
The user of any fill containment station manufactured by Nuvair is hereby warned that failure to follow the
preceding Safety and Operation Precautions can result in injuries or equipment damage. However, Nuvair
does not state as fact nor does it imply that the preceding list of Safety and Operation Precautions is all-
inclusive, and further that the observance of this list will prevent all injuries or equipment damage.
