WARNING SUMMARY

Read and understand the contents of this manual and the

Operation, Display and Controls Manuals for

your compressor before installing, operating, or maintaining the compressor. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in serious injury or death.

Electricity and compressed air are dangerous. Whenever performing maintenance or compressor service
work, ensure all electrical supply power is disconnected and mechanically locked out. Beware of multiple
power sources. Ensure all power sources are isolated before working on this equipment. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in serious injury or death.

The (customer furnished) discharge air line service valve must be closed, and the compressor relieved of
all internal pressure. DO NOT rely on the discharge air line check valve for isolation. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in serious injury or death.

Never use compressed air from this unit for breathing or food processing without adequate filtering and
monitoring to meet OSHA 29 CFR 1910 or FDA 21 CFR 178.3570. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in serious illness or death.

When operating, the compressor may have hot metal surfaces that could burn flesh on contact. Shut
down compressor and allow to cool before performing checks, services, and maintenance. Failure to
comply may cause serious injury or death.

When testing or operating the compressor, hearing and eye protection is required. Failure to comply can
cause hearing loss and serious eye damage or vision loss.

Do not allow flammable, toxic or corrosive gases to enter the air inlet system or electrical devices. Failure
to comply with this warning can result in personal injury or death and damage to equipment.

Never attempt to service or perform maintenance on your compressor, remove guards, panels, covers,
shields or other protective devices, while the compressor is in operation. Failure to comply with these
instructions may result in serious injury or death.

After each compressor servicing or maintenance, confirm that all safety and shutdown devices operate
properly. Failure to routinely test safety devices may result in serious injury or death.

Never override or bypass any safety or shutdown device installed on your compressor. Doing so can
result in personal injury or death and damage to equipment.

Make certain all associated piping and equipment installed beyond your compressor are compatible with
maximum pressures and temperatures to be encountered during operation of the compressor. Failure to
comply with these instructions may result in serious injury or death.

Never use plastic pipe in the compressed air system. Failure to comply with these instructions may result
in serious injury or death.

Keep doors closed during normal operation. The noise level inside cabinet may exceed 90 decibels (dBA)
and the operating temperature of some components is enough to burn skin on contact. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in serious injury.
