AIR VACUUMS
Static electricity can be generated when using air operated equipment. If the
equipment and accessories are not properly grounded, arcing can occur as
static electricity is dissipated. If ungrounded equipment is operated near explo-
sive materials or vapors, fire or explosion may result. FOR MAXIMUM SAFETY,
GROUNDED AIR LINES AND VACUUM HOSES MUST BE USED WITH THIS
EQUIPMENT. CONSULT THE GOODWAY CATALOG FOR GROUNDED VACUUM
HOSES AND ACCESSORIES.
Do not operate near flammable materials such as fuels, thinners, solvents, grain
dust, etc.
