Make sure that all protective covers are in place and that the canopy/doors are closed during
operation.
The specification of this machine is such that the machine is not suitable for use in flammable
gas risk areas. If such an application is required then all local regulations, codes of practice
andsite rules mustbe observed. Toensure that themachinecan operate inasafe andreliable
manner, additional equipment such as gas detection, exhaust spark arrestors, and intake
(shut-off) valves may be required, dependent on local regulations or the degree of risk
involved.
A weekly visual check must be made on all fasteners/fixing screws securing mechanical parts.
In particular, safety-related parts such as coupling hitch, drawbar components, road-wheels,
and lifting bail should be checked for total security.
All components which are loose, damaged or unserviceable, must be rectified without delay.
Air discharged from this machine may contain carbon monoxide or other contaminants which
will cause serious injury or death. Do not breathe this air.
This machine produces loud noise with the doors open or service valve vented. Extended
exposure to loud noise can cause hearing loss. Always wear hearing protection when doors
are open or service valve is vented.
Never inspect or service unit without first disconnecting batter cable(s) to prevent accidental
starting.
Do not use petroleum products (solvents or fuels) under high pressure as this can penetrate
the skin and result in seriousillness. Wear eye protection while cleaning unit with compressed
air to prevent debris from injuring eye(s).
Rotating fan blade can cause serious injury. Do not operate without guard in place.
Use care to avoid contacting hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold and piping, air receiver
and air discharge piping, etc.).
Ether is an extremely volatile, highly inflammable gas. When it is specified as a starting aid,
use sparingly. DO NOT USE ETHER IF THE MACHINE HAS GLOW PLUGS OR INLET
HEATER STARTING AIDS OR ENGINE DAMAGE WILL RESULT.

Never operate unit with guards, covers or screens removed. Keep hands, hair, clothing, tools,
blow gun tips, etc. well away from moving parts.
Compressed Air
Compressed air can be dangerous if incorrectly handled. Before doing any work on the unit,
ensure that all pressure is vented from the system and that the machine cannot be started
accidentally.
Ensure that the machine is operating at the rated pressure and that the rated pressure is
known to all relevant personnel.
All air pressure equipment installed in or connected to the machine must have safe working
pressure ratings of at least the machine safety valve setting.
If more than one compressor is connected to one common downstream plant, effective check
valves and isolation valves must be fitted and controlled by work procedures, so that one
machine cannot accidentally be pressurized or over pressurized by another.
Compressed air must not be used for adirect feed to any form of breathingapparatus or mask.
High Pressure Air can cause serious injury or death. Relieve pressure before removing filler
plugs/caps, fittings or covers.
Air pressure can remain trapped in air supply line which can result in serious injury or death.
Always carefully vent air supply line at tool or vent valve before performing any service.
The discharged air contains a very small percentage of compressor lubricating oil and care
should be taken to ensure that downstream equipment is compatible.
If the discharged air is to be ultimately released into a confined space, adequate ventilation
must be provided.
When using compressed air, always use appropriate personal protective equipment.
All pressure containing parts, especially flexible hoses and their couplings, must be regularly
inspected, be free from defects and be replaced according to the Manual instructions.
Avoid bodily contact with compressed air.
The safety valve located in the separator tank must be checked periodically for correct
operation.
Whenever the machine is stopped,air will flow back into the compressor system from devices
orsystemsdownstreamofthemachineunlesstheservicevalveisclosed.Installacheckvalve
at the machine service valve to prevent reverse flow in the vent of an unexpected shutdown
when the service valve is open.
Disconnected air hoses whip and can cause serious injury or death. Always attach a safety
flow restrictor to each hose at the source of supply or branch line in accordance with OSHA
Regulation 29CFR Section 1926.302(b).
Never allow the unit to sit stopped with pressure in the receiver-separator system.

Materials
The following substances may be produced during the operation of this machine:
• brake lining dust
• engine exhaust fumes
WARNING
!
Avoid inhalation
Ensure that adequate ventilation of the cooling system and exhaust gases is maintained at all
times.
The following substances are used in the manufacture of this machine and may be hazardous
to health if used incorrectly:
•anti-freeze
• compressor lubricant
• engine lubricant
• preservative grease
• rust preventative
• diesel fuel
• battery electrolyte
WARNING
!
Avoid ingestion, skin contact and inhalation of fumes
Should compressor lubricant come into contact with the eyes, then irrigate with water for at
least 5 minutes.
Should compressor lubricant come into contact with the skin, then wash off immediately.
Consult a physician if large amounts of compressor lubricant are ingested.
Consult a physician if compressor lubricant is inhaled.
Never give fluids or induce vomiting if the patient is unconscious or having convulsions.
Safetydatasheetsforcompressorand engine lubricantsshould beobtainedfromthelubricant
supplier.
DoNOT startor operate thismachine in aconfined area. Avoid breathing exhaust fumes when
working on or near the machine.

This machine may include such materials as oil, diesel fuel, antifreeze, brakefluid, oil/air filters
and batteries which may require proper disposal when performing maintenance and service
tasks. Contact local authorities for proper disposal of these materials.
Battery
A battery contains sulfuric acid and can give off gases which are corrosive and potentially
explosive. Avoid contact with skin, eyes and clothing. In case of contact, flush area
immediately with water.
WARNING
!
Do not attempt to slave start a frozen battery since this may cause it to
explode.
Exercise extreme caution when using booster battery. To jump battery, connect ends of one
booster cable to the positive (+) terminal of each battery. Connect one end of other cable to
the negative (-) terminal of the booster battery and other end to a ground connection away
from dead battery (to avoid a spark occurring near any explosive gases that may be present).
After starting unit, always disconnect cables in reverse order.
Radiator
Hot engine coolant and steam can cause injury. Ensure that the radiator filler cap is removed
with due care and attention.
Do not remove the pressure cap from a HOT radiator. Allow radiator to cool down before
removing pressure cap.

Transport
Whenloadingortransportingmachines ensure thatthespecifiedliftingand tie downpointsare
used.
When loading or transporting machines ensure that the towing vehicle, its size, weight, towing
hitch and electrical supply are all suitable to provide safe and stable towing at speeds either,
up to the legal maximum for the country in which it is being towed or, as specified for the
machine model if lower than the legal maximum.
Do not exceed gross vehicle weight rating.
Before towing the machine, ensure that:-
• the tires and towing hitch are in a serviceable condition.
• the canopy is secure.
• all ancillary equipment is stored in a safe and secure manner.
• the brakes and lights are functioning correctly and meet necessary road traffic
requirements.
• break-away cables/safety chains are connected to the towing vehicle.
The machine must be towed in a level attitude in order to maintain correct handling, braking
and lighting functions. This can be achieved by correctselection and adjustment of the vehicle
towing hitch and, on variable height running gear, adjustment of the drawbar.
1. Make sure wheels, tires and tow bar connectors are in safe operating condition
and tow bar is properly connected before towing.
2. When parking always use the handbrake and, if necessary, suitable wheel
chocks.
Safety chains/connections and their adjustment where fitted:
Ensure that the breakaway cable is securely coupled to the trailer and also to a substantial
point on the towing vehicle.
Loop the chains onto the towing vehicle using the towing vehicle hitch as an anchorage point,
or any other point of similar strength.
Ensure that the effective chain length is as short as possible while still allowing normal
articulation of the trailer and effective operation of the breakaway cable.
