Important Safety Instructions & Guidelines
Avoid using the air compressor in confined areas. Always have
Risk to Breathing
adequate space (12 inches) on all sides of the air compressor. Also keep
children, pets, and others out of the area of operation. This air compressor
does not provide breathable air for anyone or any auxiliary breathing device.
Spraying material will always need to be in another area away from the air
compressor to not allow intake air to damage the air compressor filter.
Risk of Electrical Shock
Never utilize the air compressor in the rain or wet conditions. Any electrical
issues or repairs should be performed by authorized personnel such as an
electrician and should comply with all national and local electrical codes. The air
compressor should also have the proper three prong grounding plug, correct
voltage, and adequate fuse protection.
Risk of
Never operate the compressor near combustible materials, gasoline or solvent
Explosion or Fire
vapors. If spraying flammable materials, locate the air compressor at least
20 feet away from the spray area. Never operate the air compressor indoors or
in a confined area.
Risk of Bursting
Always drain the air compressor tank daily or after each use. If the tank
develops a leak, then replace the air compressor. Never use the air com-
pressor after a leak has been found or try to make any modifications to
the tank. Never modify the air compressor's factory settings which control
the tank pressure or any other function.
