SAFETY AND OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
Because components of the Oil Water Separator are connected to pressurized equipment, the same precau-
tions should be observed as with any piece of machinery of this type where carelessness in operation or
maintenance could be hazardous to personnel. In addition to obvious safety rules that should be followed
with this type of machinery, safety precautions as listed below must be observed:
OSHA
