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.
– A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT WILL CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
DANGER:
– A POTENTIAL HAZARD THAT COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR LOSS OF LIFE.
WARNING:
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. Rust can weaken the tank.
Drain the condensed water from the tank after each
use to reduce rusting. If a leak is detected in the tank,
replace the tank immediately. 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 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.
4.
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.
5.
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.
6.
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.
CAUTION
1.
Drain the moisture from the tank(s) 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
200-2415
SAFETY GUIDELINES
7.
RISK TO HEARING. Always wear hearing protection
when using an air compressor. Failure to do so may
result in hearing loss.
8.
RISK TO BREATHING. Risk of carbon monoxide
poisoning. Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, an odorless and deadly poison. DO NOT
operate in an enclosed area. DO NOT mount or
operate in an enclosed vehicle, such as a van.
9.
RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Never operate the
gasoline engine without the muffler properly installed;
doing so allows hot engine exhaust or sparks to vent
directly toward the gasoline tank.
10. RISK OF BURNS. High temperatures are generated
by the gasoline engine, transfer tube, and the pump.
To prevent burns or other injuries, DO NOT touch
these items while the engine is running. Allow them to
cool before handling or servicing. Keep children away
from the compressor at all times.
11. RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION. Gasoline is
flammable and gasoline vapors are explosive.
Sparking or heat from engine, or from other sources,
can ignite gasoline.
– DO NOT start or operate with fuel cap removed.
– DO NOT refuel while engine is running or still hot.
– DO NOT overfill the tank––there should be no fuel
– DO NOT start or operate if spilled gasoline or
– Operate and refuel only in a well–ventilated area.
– DO NOT store where gasoline vapors can reach:
(31 cm) from the nearest wall, in a well–ventilated
area.
4.
Fasten the compressor down securely if transporting
is necessary. Pressure must be released from the
tank before transporting.
5.
Protect the air hose from damage and puncture.
Inspect them weekly for weak or worn spots, and
replace if necessary.

smell of gasoline is present.
– an open flame
– a pilot light, such as in a stove, furnace or water
heater
– a spark.
