• Air obtained directly from the
compressor should never be
used to supply air for human
consumption. In order to use air
produced by this compressor
for breathing, suitable filters
and in-line safety equipment
must be properly installed. In-
line filters and safety equipment
used in conjunction with the
compressor must be capable
of treating air to all applicable
local and federal codes prior to
human consumption.
• Work in an area with good
cross ventilation. Read and
follow the safety instructions
provided on the label or safety
data sheets for the materials
