WARNING:
DANGER:
CAUTION:
WARNING:
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. Store flammable materials in a secure
location away from compressor. Equip the area of operation with a fire extinguisher.
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. If tank develops a leak, replace
it immediately with a new tank or replace the entire compressor.
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. Failure to provide adequate grounding to this product could result in
serious injury or death from electrocution. Make certain that the electrical circuit to which the
compressor is connected provides proper electrical grounding, correct voltage and adequate fuse
protection.
RISKOFINJURY. This unit starts automatically. ALWAYS shut off the main power disconnect, 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 belt guard removed. Serious injury could occur from contact with
moving parts. Stay alert and watch what you are doing when operating the compressor. Do not use
the compressor while tired or under the influence of drugs or alcohol.
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. Never use
compressor to inflate small low pressure objects such as children’s toys, footballs, basketballs, etc.
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. Do not reach around
protective shrouds or attempt to maintenance until unit has been allowed to cool.
