TRAINING REQUIRED BEFORE USE.

Bambi BB24 on loan from Marcin Morawski. There's also a “tiny” 3L one owned by the lab.

• Compressed air is stored energy. If it escapes suddenly it will cause damage and injury.
• Compressed air can perforate skin. Keep your hands away from the connectors and air outputs.
• Air can blow debris in various directions. Wear safety glasses.
• Air tools are the same as power tools (can remove fingers, break limbs, etc)
• Don't use makeshift pressure vessels, respect pressure ratings.
• The compressor operates on a max. 50% duty cycle, and the longest you can use it at full blast is 30 min.

• Attached is a micro mist remover and precision regulator, so you can get very clean air at pressures 0-2bar with 0.02 bar accuracy.
• If you need to go higher than that, you'll have to remove the precision regulator and use a regular one (also provided).
• Close the drain valve before use, or the tank won't build up pressure.
• Open the drain value after use (slowly, to allow the tank to decompress) and leave it open to avoid condensation (which can corrode the metal).

• Top up oil (supplied) every so often.
• Cover it with a dust sheet when not in use otherwise the wood dust will kill seals and filters quickly.
