Dust or dust-like particulates caused by 
power-sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling or any 
other construction-like activities can contain 
contaminants that are harmful to breathe.

Always use your air compressor in a well-ventilated 
and clean area.

Never breathe the air that comes directly out of the 
air compressor or air hose. This air is not suitable for 
breathing.

Always wear approved safety equipment. When 
performing dust-creating activities, securely wear 
properly-fit face masks or respirators.

If you feel ill from breathing while operating your air 
compressor, stop and seek medical attention 
immediately.

WARNING

RISK TO BREATHING

Air compressor surfaces become hot during 
operation.

DO NOT touch hot surfaces, because they can cause 
severe burns.

Do not touch the air compressor’s cylinder head. 
During operation, the cooling fins of the cylinder 
head and delivery pipe become hot.

Allow the air compressor to cool before touching it.

DO NOT place a storage cover on the unit during 
operation. Only place a cover on the air compressor 
after it has thoroughly cooled down.

FIRE

HOT SURFACE

WARNING

Flying objects can cause injury to the eyes, head and 
other parts of the body.

Air-powered equipment and power tools are capable 
of propelling items (metal chips, fasteners and 
particulates) at high speed into the air and could 
result in injury.

Always wear approved head and eye protection.

Never point the air stream at any part of your body, 
or at another person or animal.

When operating the air compressor, make sure all 
other people and animals maintain a safe distance.

Do not move the air compressor when the air tank is 
under pressure. 

Never use the air hoses to pull or move the air 
compressor.

Keep the air compressor on a flat surface.

WARNING

FLYING OBJECTS

Exercise caution when using pressurized air.

To prevent injury and for your general safety, only 
use high-pressure hoses, fittings and couplings 
designed for use with air compressors.

Inspect all hoses, fittings and couplings for leaks 
and wear. When leaks and wear are detected, stop 
use and replace those items immediately. Do not 
repair.

Never leave pressurized air in the air tank when 
performing maintenance.

Never leave the air compressor unattended with the 
power supply in use and the air hose connected.
