SAFETY ISSUES

Air-Mite's primary goal is to provide you, our customers and distributors, with a defect free production component. In this way, an employer can provide the maximum in safety for his or her workforce.

Safety depends on three basic practices: (1) Safeguard the point of operation - the point of operation must be guarded to protect the operator from injury - OSHA 1910.212 (2) Appropriate training for operators of production equipment, and (3) Instill and enforce safety practices for all employees - an employer should provide the maximum in safety for all employees.

Air-Mite insists that all purchasers, operators, and servicers of our production components adhere to applicable ANSI and OSHA regulations regarding machine guarding, two-hand safely controls, lockout valves, and safety foot guards.

Air-Mite will provide all current and new customers with a copy of our safety brochure highlighting our line of safety equipment. This four page brochure provides information on two-hand safety controls, lockout valves and safety foot guards. It is free of charge to all. Simply provide us with a mailing address and we will forward it on to you.

NEWER WARNING stickers/labels are now available in addition to the warning labels we have always used with our products. Our warning label warns the press or cylinder user to use point of operation guards and other safety devices to prevent crush injuries occurring to those operating these production components.
NOTE: Additional or replacement WARNING labels are available at no charge from Air-Mite. Call or fax the factory with your request and the labels will be forwarded to you at once.

A new version of Safety & Maintenance Procedures sheet are now available. Specifically designed for service, repair or maintenance departments. These sheets provide detailed information on the proper maintenance of our components to assure many years of uninterrupted service and production.
NOTE: This sheet is noted on our website for your convenience. You can download it at any time. If you prefer, we will fax or mail you a copy if you provide us with the applicable address.
