2. SAFETY REGULATIONS<br />
2.1. GENERAL<br />
WARNING<br />
Never open filling or shut -off valves when under pressure and not connected as highly compressed emerging<br />
air can cause serious accidents.<br />
WARNING<br />
Ensure intake air is free from noxious gas, exhaust fumes and solvent vapour. Use an intake hose and ensure<br />
that it is mounted in such a way as to avoid taking in any noxious substances.<br />
WARNING<br />
Filling hoses must be in satisfactory condition and threads undamaged. Pay particular attention to damage on<br />
the interface from hose fitting to hose. If the rubber is scored, hose must be discarded otherwise water can enter<br />
and attack wire gauze causing it to rust and thus endangering pressure tightness.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Always shut down and decompress the complete system prior to carrying out any work on the compressor.<br />
Working on compressor units requires the necessary expert knowledge!<br />
CAUTION<br />
Check the complete system for leakage from time to time by brushing all fittings and couplings with soapy water<br />
or spraying with leak test spray. Repair any leakage.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Always disconnect the system from mains supply prior to carrying out any work on compressor systems with<br />
electric drive motor.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Never repair pressure lines by soldering or welding.<br />
CAUTION<br />
Do not use any toxic substances like gasoline or acetone or similar to clean the compressor unit or any of its<br />
parts.<br />
