Oilless Compressors

General Safety
Information

(Continued)

3. Only persons well acquainted with

these rules of safe operation should
be allowed to use the compressor.

4. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow

children in the work area.

5. Wear safety glasses

and use hearing
protection when
operating the pump
or unit.

6. Do not stand on or use the pump or

unit as a handhold.

7. Before each use, inspect compressed

air system and electrical components
for signs of damage, deterioration,
weakness or leakage. Repair or
replace defective items before using.

8. Check all fasteners at frequent

intervals for proper tightness.

Motors, electrical
equipment and controls
can cause electrical arcs
that will ignite a flammable gas or
vapor. Never operate or repair in or
near a flammable gas or vapor. Never
store flammable liquids or gases in the
vicinity of the compressor.

Compressor parts may
be hot even if the unit
is stopped.

9. Keep fingers away from a running

compressor; fast moving and hot
parts will cause injury and/or burns.

10. If the equipment should start to

abnormally vibrate, STOP the
engine/motor and check
immediately for the cause. Vibration
is generally a warning of trouble.

11. To reduce fire hazard, keep

engine/motor exterior free of oil,
solvent, or excessive grease.

Never remove or
attempt to adjust

safety valve. Keep safety valve free
from paint and other accumulations.

WARNING

CAUTION

WARNING

Never attempt to repair
or modify a tank!
Welding, drilling or any
other modification will weaken the
tank resulting in damage from rupture
or explosion. Always replace worn or
damaged tanks.

Drain liquid from
tank daily.

13. Tanks rust from moisture build-up,

which weakens the tank. Make sure
to drain tank daily and inspect
periodically for unsafe conditions
such as rust formation and
corrosion.

14. Fast moving air will stir up dust and

debris which may be harmful. Release
air slowly when draining moisture or
depressurizing the compressor system.

SPRAYING PRECAUTIONS

Do not spray flammable
materials in vicinity of
open flame or near
ignition sources including the
compressor unit.

15. Do not smoke when spraying paint,

insecticides, or other flammable
substances.

16. Use a face mask/

respirator when
spraying and spray in
a well ventilated area
to prevent health and
fire hazards.

17. Do not direct paint or other sprayed

material at the compressor. Locate
compressor as far away from the
spraying area as possible to
minimize overspray accumulation
on the compressor.

18. When spraying or cleaning with

solvents or toxic chemicals, follow
the instructions provided by the
chemical manufacturer.

WARNING

DANGER

Installation

LOCATION

It is extremely important to use the
compressor in a clean, well ventilated
area where the surrounding air
temperature will not be more than 100°F.

A minimum clearance of 18 inches
between the compressor and a wall is
required because objects could obstruct
air flow.

Do not locate the
compressor air

inlet near steam, paint spray, sandblast
areas or any other source of
contamination. This debris will damage
the motor.

Never use an extension
cord with this product. Use
additional air hose instead
of an extension cord to
avoid power loss and permanent motor
damage. Use of an extension cord voids
the warranty.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

1. This product is for use on a nominal

120 volt circuit and has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug illustrated
in Fig. 1. Make sure the product is
connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug. This
product must be grounded. In the
event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces risk of electrical
shock by providing an escape wire for
electric current. This product is
equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. Plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed
and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
