GENERAL SAFETY RULES

WARNING:

Read and understand all instructions. Failure

to follow all instructions listed below may result

in electric shock, fire and/or carbon monoxide

poisoning which will cause death or serious

personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WORK AREA

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

benches and dark areas invite accidents. Floor must not

be slippery from wax or dust.

Do not operate air compressors in explosive atmo-

spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,

gases, or dust. Air compressors create sparks which may

ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while

operating an air compressor. Distractions can cause you

to lose control.

Operate air compressor in an open area at least 18 in.

away from any wall or object that could restrict the

flow of fresh air to ventilation openings.

PERSONAL SAFETY

Always wear eye protection with side shields marked

to comply with ANSI Z87.1 as well as hearing protec-

tion when operating this equipment.

The employer and/or user must ensure that proper

eye protection is worn. We recommend a Wide Vision

Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety

glasses that provide protection against flying particles

both from the front and side. Always use eye protection

which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.

Additional safety protection will be required in some

environments. For example, the working area may

include exposure to a noise level which can lead to hear-

ing damage. The employer and user must ensure that any

necessary hearing protection is provided and used by the

operator and others in the work area. Some environments

will require the use of head protection equipment. When

required, the employer and user must ensure that head

protection marked to comply with ANSI Z89.1 is used.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use com-

mon sense when operating the air compressor. Do

not use product while tired or under the influence of

drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention

while operating an air compressor may result in serious

personal injury.

Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.

Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance

at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better

control of the product in unexpected situations.

Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.

Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection must be used for appropriate conditions.

Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable

footing on a solid surface enables better control of the

air compressor in unexpected situations.

AIR COMPRESSOR USE AND CARE

For outdoor use only.

Do not exceed the pressure rating of any component

in the system.

Protect material lines and air lines from damage or

puncture. Keep hose away from sharp objects, chemical

spills, oil, solvents, and wet floors.

Check hoses for weak or worn condition before each

use, making certain all connections are secure. Do not

use if defect is found. Purchase a new hose or notify an

authorized service center for examination or repair.

Release all pressures within the system slowly. Dust

and debris may be harmful.

Store idle air compressors out of the reach of children

and other untrained persons. Air compressors are dan-

gerous in the hands of untrained users.

Maintain air compressors with care. Follow mainte-

nance instructions. Properly maintained products are

easier to control.

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,

breakage of parts, and any other condition that may

affect the product’s operation. If damaged, have the

air compressor serviced before using. Many accidents

are caused by poorly maintained products.

 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.

 Keep the engine free of grass, leaves, or grease to

reduce the chance of a fire hazard.

 Keep guards in place and in working order. Never oper-

ate the tool with any guard or cover removed. Make sure

all guards are operating properly before each use.

 Do not operate the engine in a confined space where

dangerous carbon monoxide fumes can collect. Carbon

monoxide, a colorless, odorless, and extremely danger-

ous gas, can cause unconsciousness or death.

Keep the exhaust pipe free of foreign objects.

Do not operate around dry brush, twigs, cloth rags, or

other flammable materials.
