POTENTIAL CONSEQUENCE
PREVENTION
Serious injury or death may occur
from normal electrical sparks in
motor and pressure switch
Serious injury may occur if any air
compressor ventilation openings
are restricted, causing the air
compressor to overheat and start
on fire.
Serious injury or death may occur
from an air tank explosion if air
tanks are not properly maintained.
Serious injury may occur from
an air compressor malfunction or
exploding accessories if incorrect
system components, attachments
or accessories are used.
Always operate air compressor
in a well ventilated area free of
flammable vapors, combustible
dust, gases or other combustible
materials.
If spraying flammable material,
locate the air compressor at least
20 feet away from the spray
area. (An additional hose may be
required.)
Never place objects against or on
top of air compressor. Operate
air compressor at least 12 inches
away from any wall or obstruction
that would restrict proper
ventilation.
Drain air tank daily or after each
use to prevent moisture buildup in
the air tank.
If air tank develops a leak, replace
the air tank immediately. Never
repair, weld or make modifications
to the air tank or its attachments.
Use only genuine Senco
