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 contaminant's can cause
serious injury or death. • 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.
