Tool Use And Care; Service; Specific Safety Rules - Husky H1504ST2 Use And Care Manual

Safety Information (continued)
6. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Proper footing and balance enables better control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
7. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. A dust
mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
8. Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable footing
on a solid surface enables better control of the tool in
unexpected situations.

TOOL USE AND CARE

1. Do not exceed the pressure rating of any component in
the system.
2. Protect material lines and air lines from damage or
puncture. Keep the hose and power cord away from sharp
objects, chemical spills, oil, solvents, and wet floors.
3. Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each use,
making certain all connections are secure. Do not use if a
defect is found. Purchase a new hose or notify an
authorized service center for examination or repair.
4. Release the pressure within the system slowly. Dust and
debris may be harmful.
5. Store idle tools out of the reach of children and other
untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
6. Maintain tools with care. Follow maintenance instructions.
Properly maintained tools are easier to control.
7. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect
the tool's operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced
before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained tools.
8. Never point any tool toward yourself or others.
9. Keep the exterior of the air compressor dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when
cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, or any strong solvents to clean the unit.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of deterioration of
the enclosure plastic.

SERVICE

1. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair
personnel. Service or maintenance performed by
unqualified personnel may result in a risk of injury.
2. Disconnect the power supply, open the drain valve to
decompress the tank and allow water to drain, and allow
the air compressor to become cool to the touch before
servicing. Turn the pressure regulator knob fully counter
clockwise after shutting off the compressor.
3. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement
parts. Follow the instructions in the Maintenance section
of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to
follow the Maintenance instructions may create a risk of
injury.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. Know your power tool. Read the operator's manual
carefully. Learn its applications and limitations, as well as
the specific potential hazards related to this tool.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock,
fire, or serious injury.
2. Drain the tank of moisture after each day's use. If the unit
will not be used for a while, it is best to leave the drain
valve open until such time as it is to be used. This will
allow moisture to completely drain out and help prevent
corrosion on the inside of tank.
3. Risk of Fire or Explosion. Do not spray flammable liquid in
a confined area. The spray area must be well ventilated.
Do not smoke while spraying or spray where sparks or a
flame is present. Keep compressors as far from the
spraying area as possible, at least 15 feet from the
spraying area and all explosive vapors.
4. Risk of Bursting. Do not adjust the regulator to result in
output pressure greater than the marked maximum
pressure of the attachment. Do not use at a pressure
greater than the rated maximum pressure of this
compressor.
5. If connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time-
delay fuses with this product.
6. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to rain.
Store indoors.
