Section 1

SAFETY

2

cumulate on, under, or around acoustical material,

or on any external surfaces of the air compressor or

on internal surfaces of the enclosure. Wipe down

using an aqueous industrial cleaner or steam clean

as required. If necessary, remove acoustical mate-

rial, clean all surfaces and then replace acoustical

material. Any acoustical material with a protective

covering that has been torn or punctured should be

replaced immediately to prevent accumulation of

liquids or fluid film within the material

. DO NOT

use

flammable solvents for cleaning purposes.

D.

Disconnect and lock out all power at source prior

to attempting any repairs or cleaning of the com-

pressor or of the inside of the enclosure, if any.

E.

Keep electrical wiring, including all terminals and

pressure connectors in good condition. Replace

any wiring that has cracked, cut, abraded or other-

wise degraded insulation, or terminals that are

worn, discolored or corroded. Keep all terminals

and pressure connectors clean and tight.

F.

Keep grounded and/or conductive objects such

as tools away from exposed live electrical parts

such as terminals to avoid arcing which might

serve as a source of ignition.

G.

Remove any acoustical material or other mate-

rial that may be damaged by heat or that may sup-

port combustion and is in close proximity, prior to

attempting weld repairs.

H.

Keep suitable fully charged Class BC or ABC fire

extinguisher or extinguishers nearby when servic-

ing and operating the compressor.

I.

Keep oily rags, trash, leaves, litter or other com-

bustibles out of and away from the compressor.

J. DO NOT

operate the compressor without proper

flow of cooling air or water or with inadequate flow

of lubricant or with degraded lubricant.

K. DO NOT

attempt to operate the compressor in

any classification of hazardous environment unless

the compressor has been specially designed and

manufactured for that duty.

1.5 MOVING PARTS

A.

Keep hands, arms and other parts of the body

and also clothing away from couplings, fans and

other moving parts.

B. DO NOT

attempt to operate the compressor

with the fan, coupling or other guards removed.

C.

Wear snug fitting clothing and confine long hair

when working around this compressor, especially

when exposed to hot or moving parts.

D.

Keep access doors, if any, closed except when

making repairs or adjustments.

E.

Make sure all personnel are out of and/or clear of

the compressor prior to attempting to start or oper-

ate it.

F.

Disconnect and lock out all power at source and

verify at the compressor that all circuits are de---en-

ergized to minimize the possibility of accidental

start---up or operation, prior to attempting repairs

or adjustments. This is especially important when

compressors are remotely controlled.

G.

Keep hands, feet, floors, controls and walking

surfaces clean and free of fluid, water or other liq-

uids to minimize the possibility of slips and falls.

1.6 HOT SURFACES, SHARP EDGES AND SHARP

CORNERS

A.

Avoid bodily contact with hot fluid, hot coolant,

hot surfaces and sharp edges and corners.

B.

Keep all parts of the body away from all points of

air discharge.

C.

Wear personal protective equipment including

gloves and head covering when working in, on or

around the compressor.

D.

Keep a first aid kit handy. Seek medical assis-

tance promptly in case of injury.

DO NOT

ignore

small cuts and burns as they may lead to infection.

1.7 TOXIC AND IRRITATING SUBSTANCES

A. DO NOT

use air from this compressor for respi-

ration (breathing) except in full compliance with

OSHA Standards 29 CFR 1910 and any other Fed-

eral, State or Local codes or regulations.

DANGER

!

Death or serious injury can result from inhaling

compressed air without using proper safety

equipment. See OSHA standards on safety

equipment.

B. DO NOT

use air line anti---icer systems in air

lines supplying respirators or other breathing air

utilization equipment and

DO NOT

discharge air

from these systems in unventilated or other con-

fined areas.

C.

Operate the compressor only in open or ade-

quately ventilated areas.

D.

Locate the compressor or provide a remote inlet

so that it is not likely to ingest exhaust fumes or

other toxic, noxious or corrosive fumes or sub-

stances.

E.

Coolants and lubricants used in this compressor

are typical of the industry. Care should be taken to

avoid accidental ingestion and/or skin contact. In

the event of ingestion, seek medical treatment

promptly. Wash with soap and water in the event of

skin contact.
