The following information relates to protecting YOUR SAFETY and PREVENTING EQUIPMENT PROBLEMS. To help you recognize this
information, we use the following symbols. Please read the manual and pay attention to these sections.
DANGER:
– A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT WILL CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
WARNING:
– A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
CAUTION:
– A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT MAY CAUSE MODERATE INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.
WARNING
1.
RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Never spray
flammable liquids in a confined area. It is normal for
the motor and pressure switch to produce sparks
while operating. If sparks come into contact with
vapors from gasoline or other solvents, they may
ignite, causing fire or explosion. Always operate the
compressor in a well–ventilated area. Do not smoke
while spraying. Do not spray where sparks or flame
are present. Keep compressor as far from spray area
as possible.
2.
RISK OF BURSTING. Do not weld, drill or modify the
air tank of this compressor. Welding or modifications
on the air compressor tank can severely impair tank
strength and cause an extremely hazardous
condition. Welding or modifying the tank in any
manner will void the warranty.
3.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. Never use an
electric air compressor outdoors when it is raining or
on a wet surface, as it may cause an electric shock.
4.
RISK OF INJURY. This unit starts automatically.
ALWAYS shut off the compressor, remove the plug
from the outlet, and bleed all pressure from the
system before servicing the compressor, and when
the compressor is not in use. Do not use the unit with
the shrouds or beltguard removed. Serious injury
could occur from contact with moving parts.
5.
RISK OF BURSTING. Check the manufacturer's
maximum pressure rating for air tools and
accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be
regulated so as to never exceed the maximum
pressure rating of the tool. Relieve all pressure
through the hose before attaching or removing
accessories.
6.
RISK OF BURNS. High temperatures are generated
by the pump and manifold. To prevent burns or other
injuries, DO NOT touch the pump, manifold or
transfer tube while the pump is running. Allow them to
cool before handling or servicing. Keep children away
from the compressor at all times.
CAUTION
1.
Drain the moisture from the tank on a daily basis. A
clean, dry tank will help prevent corrosion.
2.
Pull the pressure relief valve ring daily to ensure that
the valve is functioning properly, and to clear the
valve of any possible obstructions.
3.
To provide proper ventilation for cooling, the
compressor must be kept a minimum of 12 inches (31
cm) from the nearest wall, in a well–ventilated area.
4.
To prevent damage to tank and compressor on
stationary models, the tank must be shimmed so the
pump base is level within 1/8" to distribute oil
properly. All feet must be supported, shimming where
necessary, prior to attaching to the floor. Fasten all
feet to floor. We also recommend the use of vibration
pads (094-0021) under tank feet.

SAFETY GUIDELINES
7.
RISK TO BREATHING. Be certain to read all labels
when you are spraying paints or toxic materials, and
follow the safety instructions. Use a respirator mask if
there is a chance of inhaling anything you are
spraying. Read all instructions and be sure that your
respirator mask will protect you. Never directly inhale
the compressed air produced by a compressor. It is
not suitable for breathing purposes.
8.
RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1
approved safety goggles when using an air
compressor. Never point any nozzle or sprayer
toward a person or any part of the body. Equipment
can cause serious injury if the spray penetrates the
skin.
9.
RISK OF BURSTING. Do not adjust the relief valve
for any reason. Doing so voids all warranties. The
relief valve has been pre-set at the factory for the
maximum pressure of this unit. Personal injury and /or
property damage may result if the relief valve is
tampered with.
10. RISK OF BURSTING.Do not use plastic or pvc pipe
for compressed air. Use only gavanized steel pipe
and fittings for compressed air distribution lines.
11. RISK TO HEARING. Always wear hearing protection
when using an air compressor. Failure to do so may
result in hearing loss.
12. The power cord on this product contains lead, a
chemical known to the State of California to cause
cancer, and birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Wash hands after handling.
NOTE: ELECTRICAL WIRING. Refer to the air compressor's
serial label for the unit's voltage and amperage
requirements. Ensure that all wiring is done by a
licensed electrician, in accordance with the National
Electrical code.
5.
Fasten the compressor down securely if transporting
is necessary. Pressure must be released from the
tank before transporting.
6.
Protect the air hose and electric cord from damage
and puncture. Inspect them weekly for weak or worn
spots, and replace if necessary.
7.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to
rain. Store indoors.
8.
Never operate the compressor if the power cord or
plug are damaged. Take the equipment to the nearest
Authorized Service Center , and a specialist technician
will replace it.
