SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
As with all machinery, there are certain hazards involved with their
operation and use. Exercising respect and caution will considerably
lessen the risk of personal injury. However, if normal safety precautions
are overlooked, or ignored, personal injury to the operator, or damage
to property may result.
It is in your own interest to read and pay attention
to the following rules:
1.
COMPRESSED AIR IS DANGEROUS, NEVER direct a jet of air at people or animals,
and NEVER discharge compressed air against the skin.
2.
DO NOT operate your compressor with any guards removed.
3.
Electrical or mechanical repairs should only be carried out by a qualified
engineer. If problems occur, contact your Clarke dealer.
4.
Before carrying out any maintenance, ensure the pressure is expelled from
the air receiver, and the machine is disconnected from the mains.
5.
DO NOT leave pressure in the receiver overnight, or when transporting.
6.
DO NOT adjust, or tamper with the safety valves. The maximum pressure is
factory set, and clearly marked on the machine.
7.
DO NOT operate in wet or damp conditions. Keep the machine dry at alll
times.
8.
A clean atmosphere will ensure efficient operation. Do not use in dusty or
otherwise dirty locations.
9.
Some of the metal parts can become quite hot during operation. Take care
not to touch these until the machine has cooled down.
10. Always adjust the pressure regulator to the recommended setting for the
particular spray gun or tool being used.
11. When spraying inflammable materials e.g. cellulose paint, ensure there is
adequate ventilation and keep clear of any possible source of ignition.
12. Protect yourself. Think carefully about any potential hazards which may be
created by using the air compressor and use the appropriate protection. e.g.
Goggles will protect your eyes from flying particles. Face masks will protect
you against paint spray and/or fumes.
13. Before spraying any material always consult paint manufacturers instructions
for safety and usage.
14. Personal safety products can be obtained from your local dealer.
15. Do not exert any strain on electrical cables and ensure that air hoses are not
tangled or wrapped around machinery etc.
