HAZARD
Although water generally provides a natural electrical
ground, the following equipment must be grounded if

1.
When cleaning in enclosed areas,
tanks, locate the pump and air compressor outside
the area and well away from it. Provide adequate
ventilation. If the area you are cleaning has stored
flammable materials. take appropriate precautions
to avoid static sparking. Consult your local codes.
