• Release all pressures within the system slowly. Dust and debris may be harmful.
• Do not use inflator if switch does not turn it on or off. An inflator that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
• Place the switch off position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
the inflator. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the inflator accidentally.
• Store idle inflators out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Inflators are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
• Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition
that may affect the inflator’s operation. If damaged, have the inflator serviced before using. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories
that may be suitable for one inflator may create a risk of injury when used on another inflator.
• Keep the inflator and its handle 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 your inflator. Following this rule will reduce the risk of loss of control and
deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
• Never point any inflator toward yourself or others.
• Do not exceed the pressure rating of any component in the system.
• Protect material lines and air lines from damage or puncture. Keep hose and power cord away
from sharp objects, chemical spills, oil, solvents, and wet floors.
