SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
! Recover R12, R22, R134a or R502 Refrigerant only.
! Wear safety glasses and protective gloves. Refrigerant has a very low boiling point and
can cause frostbite.
! Follow the TX200 operating procedures sequentially to avoid prematurely disconnecting
hoses or opening valves which may release refrigerant to the atmosphere.
! Do not expose the TX200 to moisture or operate in wet areas.
! Use the TX200 in locations with mechanical ventilation that provides at least four air
changes per hour.
! Hoses used with the TX200 must have shutoff devices within 12 inches of the
connection point to the system being serviced to minimize the release of refrigerant
when being disconnected.
! Disconnect power before performing any maintenance or service on the TX200.
! Avoid using an extension cord with the TX200. If necessary, use a good condition, UL
listed, 3-wire grounded, #14 AWG extension cord of the shortest possible length.
! Connect the TX200 to a properly protected, grounded receptacle. Do not over load the
circuit.
! DO NOT CONNECT THE TX200 DIRECTLY TO THE LIQUID SIDE OF ANY A/C
SYSTEM. ALWAYS CONNECT A CYLINDER BETWEEN THE A/C SYSTEM AND
THE TX200. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE THE TX200 COMPRESSOR TO FAIL.
