Important Safety Information (Continued)
Maximum operating pressure is 175 psi for
two-stage compressors. Do not operate with
pilot valves set higher than 175 psi.
Never attempt to repair or modify
a tank! Welding, drilling or any
other modification will weaken the tank resulting in
damage from rupture or explosion. Always replace worn
or damaged tanks.
Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank.
u
Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect periodically for
unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
Drain liquid from tank daily.
Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful.
u
Release air slowly when draining moisture or depressurizing the
compressor system.
SPRAYING PRECAUTIONS
Do not spray flammable materials
in vicinity of open flame or near
ignition sources including the compressor unit.
Do not smoke when spraying paint, insecticides, or
u
other flammable substances.
Use a face mask / respirator when spraying and
u
spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and
fire hazards.
Do not direct paint or other sprayed material at the
u
compressor. Locate compressor as far away from
the spraying area as possible to minimize overspray
accumulation on the compressor.
When spraying or cleaning with solvents or toxic
u
chemicals, follow the instructions provided by the
chemical manufacturer.

Breathable Air Warning
This compressor / pump is NOT equipped and should NOT be
used "as is" to supply breathing quality air. For any application
of air for human consumption, you must fit the air compressor
/ pump with suitable in-line safety and alarm equipment. This
additional equipment is necessary to properly filter and purify
the air to meet minimal specifications for Grade D breathing
as described in Compressed Gas Association Commodity
Specification G 7.1 - 1966, OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134, and/or
Canadian Standards Associations (CSA).
DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES
In the event the compressor is used for the purpose of breathing
air application and proper in-line safety and alarm equipment is
not simultaneously used, existing warranties shall be voided, and
disclaims any liability whatsoever for any loss, personal injury or
damage.
