IF ELECTRICAL SPARKS FROM COMPRESSOR

IF SPRAYING FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, LO-

 

 

 

COME INTO CONTACT WITH FLAMMABLE

CATE COMPRESSOR AT LEAST 20 FEET

 

 

 

VAPORS, THEY MAY IGNITE, CAUSING FIRE

AWAY FROM SPRAY AREA. AN ADDITIONAL

 

 

 

OR EXPLOSION.

 

LENGTH OF HOSE MAY BE REQUIRED.

 

 

 

 

 

STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN A

 

 

 

 

 

SECURE LOCATION AWAY FROM COM-

 

 

 

 

 

PRESSOR.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RESTRICTING ANY OF THE COMPRESSOR

NEVER PLACE OBJECTS AGAINST OR ON

 

 

 

VENTILATION OPENINGS WILL CAUSE SERI-

TOP OF COMPRESSOR.

OPERATE COM-

 

 

 

OUS OVERHEATING AND COULD CAUSE

PRESSOR IN AN OPEN AREA AT LEAST 12

 

 

 

FIRE.

 

INCHES

AWAY FROM

ANY

WALL OR
