Consult a physician if large amounts of compressor oil are ingested or if compressor oil is inhaled. Never give fluids or induce vomiting if the patient is unconscious or having convulsions. Safety data sheets for compressor and engine oils should be obtained from the oil supplier. Do NOT start or operate this compressor in a confined area. Avoid breathing exhaust fumes when working on or near the compressor.
This compressor may include such materials as oil, diesel fuel, antifreeze, brake fluid, oil/air filters, and batteries which may require proper disposal when performing maintenance or service tasks. Contact local authorities for proper disposal of these materials. Battery A battery contains sulfuric acid and can produce 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 jump-start a frozen battery since this may cause it to explode. Exercise extreme caution when using an external method to jump-start a unit.
Verify the electrical systems on the weak battery system and the external jump system are the same voltage type system, 12VDC or 24VDC. Connect the Positive (+) terminal of the external system to the Positive (+) terminal on the weak system. Connect the Negative (-) terminal of the external system to the Negative (-) terminal of the weak system. Always disconnect the two systems in reverse order. Radiator Hot engine coolant and steam can cause injury. Ensure the Radiator Pressure Cap is removed with due care and attention. Do not remove the pressure cap from a HOT radiator. Allow radiator to cool before removing pressure cap. 15
