Never point an air hose or air gun at anyone, either for fun or to blow away dirt from clothes or the body. 2\. Always use personal protective equipment, such as goggles, when cleaning with compressed air. 3\. Check the connectors and hose clamps so that everything is securely fastened. Avoid screwdrivers when tightening; use a wrench or just your hand. Hold the hose and air gun when the compressed air is switched on again. *Begin your safety work by downloading the PDF with Silvents 9 guidelines for blowing with compressed air!* ### Download the guidelines by filling in this form. #### Silvent Silvent helps manufacturers with energy optimization and improved working environments.
