WARNING
Compressed air stream can be harmful to people
or pets
The powerful compressed air stream can
damage exposed skin and easily propel
loose dirt, and other small objects at high-
speed, resulting in injury.
Always wear eye protection that meets ANSI
Z28.1 specifications.
Shut OFF air compressor and relieve
pressure before performing maintenance or
repairs. Do not move the air compressor
while the air tank is pressurized. Never
attempt to move the air compressor by
pulling on the air hose.
WARNING
Movement from Vibration
Always operate air compressor in a stable
and secure position to prevent accidental
movement of the unit.
Never operate air
compressor on a roof or other elevated
position. Use additional air hose to reach
high locations.
WARNING
Air Tools and Accessories
Do not exceed the pressure rating of any air
tools, spray guns, air accessories, or
inflatables.
Excess pressure can cause them to explode,
resulting in serious injury. Follow the
manufacturers recommended pressure
settings for all air tools and air accessories
.
WARNING
Release air and liquid from tank before and after
each use
Use the drain valve located on the bottom of
the lower air tank to drain. Failure to
properly drain liquid from the tank will cause
rust from moisture buildup, which weakens
the tank and could lead to a violent tank
explosion. Periodically inspect the tanks for
unsafe conditions such as corrosion, cracked
welds, and leaks.
When operating drain valve, release air and
liquid slowly when depressurizing the tank.
High speed release of air and liquid may stir
up rust and debris and may result in injury.
