WARNING
Do not attempt to modify the air compressor in any way; this will VOID your warranty.
The use of any attachment or accessory other than those recommended in this instruction manual
could result in damage to the air compressor and could cause injuries to the operator.
This electric air compressor complies with Australian / New Zealand and International standards and
safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried out by qualified persons using original spare
parts. Failure to do so may result in considerable danger to the operator.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS
Before using the air compressor it should be
carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function.
Check for the correct alignment of moving parts
ensuring that they do not bind. Check for broken
or missing parts and have them replaced or
repaired at an authorised service facility. Check
any other condition that may affect the operation
of the air compressor. A guard or any other part
of the air compressor that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorised
service facility unless otherwise indicated in this
instruction manual.
Any switch that does not operate correctly must
be replaced by an authorised service facility.
DO NOT use the air compressor if the ‘ON /
OFF’ button does not turn the air compressor
‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Clothing
Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or anything
that could get caught in moving machinery.
Hair
Long hair should be tied back or contained in a
protective covering.
Eye Protection
The use of safety goggles is highly recommended
(normal glasses are not sufficient for eye
protection) when using an air compressor.
Prescription glasses do not have safety lenses.
Footwear
Where there is the risk of heavy objects or if
there is a risk of slipping on wet or slippery floors,
suitable non–slip safety footwear should be worn.
Protect your feet from dropping accidents.
Ear Protection
The use of ear protection is highly recommended
when using air compressors. The continual noise
may damage your ears.
Respiratory Protection
When operating any machinery that creates dust
or when spray painting, an approved dust / filter
mask must be worn. When machining concrete,
man made fibres, especially MDF (Medium Density
Fibre board), the resin used in these materials can
be hazardous to your health. Use an approved
face mask with replaceable filter.
Do Not Over Reach
Do not over reach. Keep a proper footing and
maintain your balance at all times. Avoid using
abnormal stances and awkward body positions.
Stay Alert
Watch what you are doing, use common sense,
and never operate an air compressor when you
are tired, drinking alcohol, taking drugs or if
taking medication that causes drowsiness.
