DANGER: 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.

• 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:
OSHA/MSHA/NIOSH
respiratory protection designed
for use with your specific
application.
