safety guidelines
Since the air compressor and other components used (material pump, spray guns, filters, lubricators, hoses, etc.)
make up a high pressure pumping system, the following safety precautions must be observed at all times:
1. Read all manuals included with this product carefully. Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper
use of the equipment.
2. Follow all local electrical and safety codes as well as in the United States, the National Electrical Codes
(NEC) and Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA).
3. Only persons well acquainted with these rules of safe operation should be allowed to use the compressor.
4. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children in the work area.
5. Wear safety glasses and use hearing protection when operating the unit.
6. Do not stand on or use the unit as a handhold.
7. Before each use, inspect compressed air system and electrical components for signs of damage, deterioration,
weakness or leakage. Repair or replace defective items before using.
8. Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness.
9. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that will get caught in the moving parts of the unit.
10. Keep fingers away from a running compressor; fast moving and hot parts will cause injury and/or burns
11. If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, STOP the engine/motor and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.
12. To reduce fire hazard, keep engine/motor exterior free of oil, solvent, or excessive grease.
13. Never attempt to adjust ASME safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other accumulations.
14. Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect
periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
15. Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. Release air slowly when draining moisture
or depressurizing the compressor system.
Motors, electrical equipment and controls can cause electrical arcs that will ignite a fl ammable
gas or vapor. Never operate or repair in or near a fl ammable gas or vapor. Never store fl ammable
liquids or gases in the vicinity of the compressor.
Never operate compressor without a beltguard. This unit can start automatically without warning.
Personal injury or property damage could occur from contact with moving parts.
Compressor parts may be hot even if the unit is stopped.
An ASME code safety relief valve with a setting no higher than the maximum allowable working
pressure (MAWP) MUST be installed in the tank for this compressor. The ASME safety valve must
have suffi cient fl ow and pressure ratings to protect the pressurized components from bursting.
See compressor specifi cation decal for maximum operating pressure. Do not operate with
pressure switch or pilot valves set higher than the maximum operating pressure.
Never use plastic (PVC) pipe for compressed air. Serious injury or death could result.
Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any other modifi cation will weaken
the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion. Always replace worn, cracked or damaged
tanks.
Drain liquid from tank after each use.
