DANGER!
Potential hazard that will result in serious injury or loss of life.
•
Risk of fire or explosion:
Do not spray a flammable or combustible liquid or
paint near sparks, flames, pilot lights or in a confined area. The spray area
must be well-ventilated. Keep compressor at least 20’ (6 m) away from
spray area. Do not carry and operate the compressor or any other electrical
device near the spray area. Never smoke when spraying. Use a minimum of
25’
(7.6 m)
of hose to connect a spray gun to the compressor.
•
Risk of electric shock:
Do not expose to rain. Store the compressor indoors.
Hazardous voltage. Disconnect from power source before servicing.
Compressor must be grounded. Do not use grounding adaptors.
•
Risk of bursting:
Make sure the regulator is adjusted so that the compressor
outlet pressure is set lower than the maximum operating pressure of the
spray gun or tool. Before starting the compressor, pull the ring on the safety
valve to make sure the valve moves freely (see diagram on page 18). Drain
water from tank after each use. Do not weld or repair tank.
•
Risk of personal injury: Never spray the compressed air or material at self or
others.
•
Risk of bursting:
Check the maximum pressure rating in the manual or
identification label. The compressor outlet pressure must be regulated so
that it does not exceed the maximum pressure rating. Relieve all pressure in
the hose before removing or attaching accessories.
•
Risk of bursting:
Do not adjust the pressure switch or safety valve for any
reason. They have been preset at the factory for this compressor’s maximum
pressure. Tampering with the pressure switch or the safety valve may cause
personal injury or property damage.
