Air compressors are utilized in a variety of air system
applications.
Match hoses, connectors, air tools, and accessories to the
capabilities of the air compressor.
You may use this tool for purposes listed below:
Operating air powered tools requiring less than 2.8 SCFM @ 90
PSI or 3.7 SCFM @ 40 PSI.
Powering pneumatic nail guns, infl ating tires, cleaning / blowing
with pressurized air.
WARNING
: Always
recommended by the manufacturer of
your tool, in addition to all safety rules
for the air compressor.
Following these rules will reduce the
risk of serious personal injury.
PRIOR TO OPERATION
1.
Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to
the power source requirements specifi ed on the product
nameplate.
NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit protected by
