DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REMOVE fitings, covers, ete ‘hile machine is under pressure or while machine is ri ning. Be sure pressure is at zero psig before breaking any refrigerant connection CAREFULLY INSPECT all relief valves, upture diss and other relief devices AT LEAST ONCE A YEAR. If mae Chine operates in a corrosive atmosphere, inspect the de- ices a more frequent intervals DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPAIR OR RECONDITION any relief valve when corrosion of build-up of foreign material (rust, dirt, scale, ete.) is found within the valve body or mechanist. Replace the valve. DO NOT VENT refrigerant relief valves within a building vent to outside. The accumulation of refrigerant in an en- closed space ean displace oxygen and cause asphyxiation, DO NOT instal elief valves in series or backwards USE CARE when working near or in line with a com pressed spring. Sudden release of the spring can calse it land objects in its path to act as projects. DO NOT STEP on refegerant ins.
