VE THESE INSTRUCTIONS *
To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, and injury to persons, read all the instructions before
using the tool. It is also recommended that you read the compressor manual and follow all
compressor safety instructions.
GENERAL SAFETY
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, FIRE, AND/OR INJURY. Keep the work area clean and well
lighted. Cluttered benches and dark areas increase the risks of electric shock, fire, and
injury to persons. Place cleaning rags and other flammable waste materials in a secured
metal container. The container should be disposed of properly in accordance with local,
state, and federal regulations.
WORK AREA SAFETY
RISK OF FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, never
spray in a confined area. Always spray in a well ventilated area.
RISK OF FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION. Do not smoke while spraying. Do not spray
where sparks or flames are present.
RISK OF FIRE AND/OR EXPLOSION. Do not spray flammable materials in the vicinity
of an open flame or near ignition sources. Motors, electrical equipment and controls can
cause electrical arcs that will ignite a flammable gas or vapor. Never store flammable liquids
or gases in the vicinity of the compressor.
PERSONAL SAFETY
RISK OF INJURY. Never point or spray toward yourself or anyone else or serious skin
or eye injury could occur.
RISK TO BREATHING/INHALATION HAZARD. Always wear protective clothing and an
approved MSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator if there is a
chance of inhaling anything that is being sprayed.
RISK TO BREATHING/INHALATION HAZARD. Do not spray acids, corrosive materials,
toxic chemicals, fertilizers or pesticides. Using these materials may result in death or
serious injury.
RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety goggles when using
an air brush. It is capable of propelling materials such as metal chips, sawdust, and other
debris at high speed, which could result in serious eye injury.
TOOL USE AND CARE SAFETY
RISK OF INJURY. Disconnect the tool from the air source before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, cleaning or storing the tool.
RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Check for damaged air hose. Keep the air hose
away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Inspect the air hose periodically and replace it if it
becomes worn or damaged.
RISK OF EXPLOSION AND/OR INJURY. Use compressed air regulated to a maximum
pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments. This air brush is designed
to operate best at pressures between 15-50 PSI. Never attempt to operate the air brush at
pressures in excess of 50 PSI. Normal operating pressure is 30 PSI. Exceeding the maxi-
mum pressure rating could cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.
RISK OF EXPLOSION AND/OR INJURY. Halogenated hydrocarbon solvents—for example:
1,1,1- trichlorethane and methylene chloride—can chemically react with aluminum used in
most spray equipment and can cause an explosion hazard. Read the label or data sheet for
the material you intend to spray. DO NOT use spray materials containing these solvents.
