Safety Information 5 Compressed Air and Water DANGER Compressed air can cause personal injury. When using compressed air for cleaning, wear a protective face shield, protective clothing and protective shoes. Pressurized water could cause particles and/or hot water to be sprayed in your direction and cause personal injury. The maximum air pressure must be below 30 psi (200 kPa) for cleaning purposes. Asbestos Information Note: The Volvo engine and replacement parts for it shipped from the factory are asbestos free. Volvo recommends the use of only genuine Volvo spare parts. Never use any parts that contain or are thought to contain asbestos.
Exposure to asbestos fibers can create serious health risks, including death. Fluid Penetration DANGER Always use a piece of paper or cardboard when checking for a leak. Escaping fluid under high pressure, even a pin-hole sized leak, can penetrate body tissue, causing serious injury or death. If fluid is injected into your skin, immediate treatment must be administered by a doctor familiar with this type of injury.
