Use and Care Manual

3
• When battery is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws or other small metal objects, that
can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact ac-
cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
• Do not use a battery or tool that is damaged or
modied. Damaged or modied batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behavior resulting in re, explosion or
risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery or tool to re or exces-
sive temperature. Exposure to re or temperature
above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery or tool outside the temperature range
specied in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside the specied range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of re.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery. Service of battery
should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
AIR COMPRESSOR
•
WARNING
Risk of Fire or Explosion. Do not
spray ammable liquid in a con-
ned area. Spray area must be well ventilated.
Do not smoke while spraying or spray where
spark or ame is present. Keep compressors as
far from spraying area as possible.
•
WARNING
Risk of injury. Do not direct air
stream at body.
•
WARNING
Use a minimum of 25 ft of hose
when connecting the spray gun
to the compressor.
•
CAUTION
Do not expose to rain. Store in-
doors.
•
CAUTION
Risk of Bursting. Do not adjust
regulator to result in output pres-
sure greater than marked maximum pressure of
attachment. Do not use at pressure greater than
135 psi.
• Know your air compressor. Read operator’s manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as
well as the specic potential hazards related to this
product. Do not alter or modify the unit from the
original design or function. Misuse and improper
handling can cause injury.
• Always follow all safety rules recommended by
the manufacturer of air tools and accessories.
• Never direct a jet of compressed air toward
yourself, others, or animals. Dust and debris
can cause eye and lung injuries.
• Do not use compressed air for breathing as-
sistance.
• Always wear proper eye protection marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1.
• Do not exceed the pressure rating of any com-
ponent in the system.
• When used for inating, do not overinate. Follow
all manufacturer's instructions for the item being
inated.
• Check air hose and couplers for wear or damage

during operation.
• Never leave the air compressor unattended with
the air hose attached.
• Before making adjustments, servicing, trans-
porting, or storing: always turn OFF the air
compressor, remove the battery pack, release
all pressure, disconnect air hose and air tools,
allow unit to cool to the touch, and drain the tank.
• Never adjust, service, transport, or store an air
tool with air connected. Unexpected starting and
possible serious personal injury could occur.

ing the tank.
• Follow proper procedures for relieving pressure and
draining the tank. Release all pressures within the
system slowly.
• Drain tanks of moisture after each day’s use. When
storing, leave drain valve open to allow moisture to
completely drain out and help prevent corrosion on
the inside of tank.
• Inspect tank yearly for rust, pin holes, or other
imperfections that could cause it to become unsafe.
Never weld or drill holes in the air tank.
