operating, safety and maintenance (servicing) instructions in this manual.
Product Safety
Vortex Dual is a recovery machine for a broad range of refrigerants. Recovering
refrigerants into separate storage tanks involves a process of gas compression,
resulting in high pressures within the machine, the connecting hoses, and the
storage tank.
High pressure systems can cause accident or injury if not handled properly,
and with care.
Refrigerant hoses must have shut-off devices within 30.5 cm (12 in.) of the ends,
to reduce the likelihood of refrigerant leakage to the atmosphere when changing
tanks or setups.
Responsibility
Do not use Vortex Dual unless properly trained in the recovery process.
Operation of this machine by unqualified personnel is potentially dangerous.
