HAZARD
RISK TO BREATHING (ASPHYXIATION)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
• The compressed air directly
from your compressor is not
safe for breathing. The air
stream may contain carbon
monoxide, toxic vapors,
or solid particles from the
air tank. Breathing these
contaminants can cause
serious injury or death.
• Never use air obtained directly
from the compressor to supply
air for human consumption. The
compressor is not equipped with
suitable filters and in-line safety
equipment for human consumption.
• Exposure to chemicals in dust
created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction
activities may be harmful.
• Sprayed materials such as
paint, paint solvents, paint
remover, insecticides, weed
killers, may contain harmful
vapors and poisons.
• 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
you are spraying. Always use certified
safety equipment: NIOSH/OSHA
respiratory protection or properly fit-
ting face mask designed for use
with your specific application.
