Breathable Air Warning; General Safety - Speedaire 40KH93 Instructions D'utilisation Et Manuel De Pièces

Important Safety Information (Continued)
This compressor/pump is not equipped and should not be used "as is" to supply breathing quality air. For
any application of air for human consumption, the air compressor/pump will need to be fitted with suitable
in-line safety and alarm equipment. This additional equipment is necessary to properly filter and purify the
air to meet minimal specifications for Grade D breathing as described in Compressed Gas Association
Commodity Specification G 7.1, OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134, and/or Canadian Standards Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is used for the purpose of breathing air application and proper in-line
safety and alarm equipment is not simultaneously used, existing warranties shall be voided, and the
manufacturer disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss, personal injury or damage.
