GENERAL GUIDELINES
PROCEDURE 1
This Procedure includes the following:
General Warnings
In order to ensure the safe installation, assembly and operation of the VENTURE
HOMEFILL II COMPRESSOR these instructions MUST be followed:
GENERAL WARNINGS
“Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on order of a physician,
or any other practitioner licensed by the law of the State in which he/she
practices to use or order the use of this device.”
The use of this device is limited to the oxygen patient. Cylinders MUST be used
ONLY by the oxygen patient and are not to be distributed to any other individual for any purpose.
DO NOT use parts, accessories or adapters other than those authorized by
Invacare or warranty will be voided.
NEVER block the air openings of the product or place it on a soft surface, such
as a bed or couch, where the air opening may be blocked. Keep the openings
free from lint, hair and the like.
DO NOT disassemble. There are minimal serviceable parts on the Venture
HomeFill II Compressor. If any service is required, contact Invacare technical
service.
If the compressor has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it
has been dropped or damaged, or submersed in water, call a qualified technician for examination and repair.
If any leakage of the oxygen cylinder is detected DO NOT attempt to use the
cylinder. Turn the flow selector knob on the regulator to “0”. If leakage persists, place the cylinder outdoors and notify your Home Health Care Provider
or Service Representative of this condition.
DO NOT allow oil from your hands or other source to come into contact with
the regulator or cylinder valve connection. These solutions may be flammable
and cause injury.
The HomeFill II is equipped with a High Pressure Relief Valve to ensure the
user’s safety. When activated, this safety feature will make an extremely loud
noise. If this noise occurs, turn the unit OFF and contact your Home Health
Care Provider or Service Representative.
Before moving or repositioning either the compressor or concentrator, always
disconnect the AC power cords and the interconnect hose between the compressor and concentrator. Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit or
personal injury.
Children should always be supervised around the HomeFill unit. When used
with the HomeFill table or similar elevated support surfaces, a child could pull
over any such table causing the unit to fall. Failure to observe this warning
may result in personal injury or product damage.
HANDLING WARNINGS
Use extreme care when handling and filling an oxygen cylinder. Full oxygen cylinders are under pressure and can become a projectile if dropped or mishandled.
NEVER transport a compressor with a cylinder connected to or stored on the
compressor, otherwise injury or damage can occur.

OXYGEN CYLINDERS FILLED BY THE VENTURE HOMEFILL
SHALL BE USED FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. “NOT TO BE FILLED
FOR RESALE OR USE BY PROFESSIONAL USERS”
WARNING: HIGH PRESSURE OXIDIZING GAS VIGOROUSLY ACCELERATES COMBUSTION.
CAUTION: For medical applications. Use only as directed by a licensed
practitioner. Uninterrupted use of high concentrations of oxygen over a long
duration, without monitoring its effect on oxygen content of arterial blood,
may be harmful.
CAUTION: DO NOT HANDLE CYLINDER OR USE CONTENTS UNTIL YOU
ARE TRAINED TO USE CYLINDER AND CONTENTS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY PROCEDURES.
CAUTION: IMPROPER FILLING OR ABUSE OF THIS CYLINDER, OR
FAILURE TO HEED THIS CAUTION MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR
LOSS OF LIFE. DO NOT ALTER OR MODIFY CYLINDER OR RELATED
COMPONENTS. KEEP OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN. Secure
cylinder during storage and use. No smoking in cylinder area. Open valve
slowly. Close valve after each use and when empty. Use in accordance with
Venture HomeFill Operator’s Manual. Cylinder temperature should not exceed 125°F (52°C). Keep away from heat, flame and spark. Do not drop.
“Use No Oil or Grease”. KEEP CYLINDER, CYLINDER VALVE, ALL EQUIPMENT AND CONNECTIONS FREE OF OIL AND GREASE TO AVOID
VIOLENT IGNITION.
TRANSFILLING OF THIS GAS IS PERFORMED BY VENTURE
HOMEFILL ONLY. Cylinders that have been refinished and/or exposed to
elevated temperatures must be hydrostatically tested before filling. Do not
use caustic paint strippers. Aluminum cylinders subject to the action of fire
or heated to temperatures in excess of 350°F must be withdrawn from service and condemned by trained personnel. Valve and safety relief devices
must be removed and replaced by trained and authorized personnel. Do
not alter or change valve assembly.
