WARNING: Inhalation of high concentrations of refrigerant vapors is harmful and may
cause heart irregularities, unconsciousness, or death. Deliberate inhalation
of refrigerants is extremely dangerous and death can occur without warning.
Vapors reduce oxygen available for breathing and are heavier than air.
Decomposition products are hazardous. Liquid contact may cause frostbite.
All refrigerant containers, equipment, and hoses are under pressure.
CAUTION:
Before operating this unit, please read this manual in its entirety. It is
important that you have a thorough understanding of the procedures
outlined in this manual. Failure to follow these procedures could void all
manufacturer warranties.
BEFORE HANDLING REFRIGERANTS, READ THE MATERIAL SAFETY

In order to reduce the affects of these conditions, Bacharach recommends the following: • Whenever possible, cool your recovery tank with ice or water. This keeps the compressor discharge pressures lower, which will result in faster recovery rates and longer compressor life. - Page 10 Refrigerant Recovery System Model 3600 Step Description Monitor the LED status display. The unit will shut off automatically when the proper vacuum level is achieved and the status display LED will turn off. Description Indicates that the power switch is ON and the compressor is running.
