Air Compressor
Keep all persons away from the
discharge opening of hoses or
tools or other points of
compressed air discharge. If the
machine is installed in an
enclosed area, be sure to vent
the relief valve outside of the structure or to an
unoccupied area.
Always make sure main power is
off before touching moving parts
of compressor.
11. Never exceed the pressure rating of any
component in system.
12. Protect material and air lines from damage or
puncture. Keep hose and power cable away
from sharp objects, moisture, chemicals, oil,
etc.
13. Check condition of hoses before each use.
Do not use a damaged hose. If hose is
damaged, replace immediately.

WARNING
Air Tool Cautions
1. DO NOT use air tools that are rated below the
maximum rating of the compressor. Select
air tools, air hoses, pipes, valves, filters and
other fittings accordingly. DO NOT exceed
manufacturer’s rated safe operating pressures
for these items.
2. Make sure all hose connections are
adequately secured to prevent tools or hose
ends from being accidentally disconnected.
3. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before
turning the tool on. A wrench or key that is
left attached to a moving part of the tool may
result in personal injury.
4. Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark work areas invite accidents.
5. Keep children away.
All children should be kept away from the work
area. Never let a child handle a tool without
strict adult supervision.
6. Store idle tools out of the reach of children and
untrained persons.
Tools may be dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
7. Do not operate any tool if under the influence
of alcohol or drugs.
Read warning labels on prescriptions to
determine if your judgment or reflexes are
impaired while taking drugs. If there is any
doubt, do not attempt to operate.
8. Do not force tool.
Use the correct tool for your application. The
correct tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
9. Do not use the tool if the switch does not turn
it on and off.
Any tool that cannot be controlled with the
switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
10. Check for damage.
Check your tool regularly. If part of the tool
is damaged it should be carefully inspected
to make sure that it can perform its’ intended
function correctly. If in doubt, the part should
be repaired. Refer all servicing to a qualified
technician. Consult your dealer for advice.
11. Maintain tools with care.
Keep tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained tools, with sharp cutting edges, are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
