• Do not aim nozzles, sprayers or the air
jet towards people or animals.
• Never inhale directly the compressed
air produced by the air compressor. Is not suitable as
breathing air.
• Do not adjust the regulator above the
maximum pressure labeled in the accessory. Otherwise the
compressor might burst.
• Operate the compressor in a leveled surface.
• Keep the compressor well ventilated. Do not cover it
while in use.
• The compressor gets hot while
operating. Do not touch it or allow children get close
while or immediately after is been used. Do not use it
without the motor cover in place. Work as far away as
possible from flammable objects or liquids.
• The air hose components may get hot while being used.
Allow the components to cool down before disconnecting.
• Do not use the air hose to carry or move the compressor.
• Do not leave the compressor connected into the power
supply when unattended for long periods of time.
Disconnect the tool after using it.
• Using accessories not recommended by
can result in personal injuries.
• High temperatures are produced under the compressor
cover and there are also parts in movement. To prevent
burns or other kind of injuries do not operate with the
cover removed from its place. Allow the compressor parts
to cool down before handling or servicing.
• Do not release any connections when the tank is under
pressure.
• The pressurestat produces sparks when
working. If sparks make contact with gasoline vapors or
other solvents they can ignite causing fire or explosion.
Always operate the compressor in a properly ventilated
area. Do not operate in closed spaces. Do not smoke while
spraying. Do not spray in flammable environments. Keep
the compressor as far away as possible from the spraying
area.
• Solvents like trichlorethane and
methylene chloride can suffer a chemical reaction with the
aluminum used in the spraying guns, paint pumps, etc.,
and can cause an explosion. If using these solvents use
only stainless steel spraying materials. This will not affect
the air compressor but can have an effect on the
equipment being used.
• For no reason at all carry out soldering
jobs in the air compressor tank. It creates an extremely
dangerous condition. Carrying soldering jobs in the tank
will void the warranty.
• Never use the compressor outdoors
when raining or onto wet surfaces. An electric shock can
strike.
• Check the maximum pressure specified
by the manufacturer for pneumatic tools and accessories.
The compressor’s output pressure shall be regulated so
that will never exceed the maximum specified pressure.
• Save the labels and nameplates. On them there is
important safety information. If the information on those
labels cannot be read or is missing contact a
Authorized Service Center to get
spares.
• For no reason at all modify the
pressurestat or the pressure release valve. Doing it makes
the warranty void. Were adjusted in the factory to the
maximum pressure for this unit.
• Be sure you read all the labels in the
paints or toxic materials you spray. Follow the safety
instructions. Wear a breathing mask if there is any
possibility to inhale the material being sprayed. Read the
breathing mask instructions to double check it will provide
the necessary protection.
• Always wear safety glasses when
using the air compressor.
• To allow an adequate cooling ventilation, the compressor
shall be kept at a minimum 12” away from the nearest wall
in a well-ventilated area.
• Environment temperature recommended to operate the
compressor is from 32 °F a 95 °F

Before using the compressor
When using the compressor
• Keep in mind the compressor starts automatically.
Always turn off the compressor. Remove the plug from the
power outlet, purge and release all the pressure from the
system before servicing the compressor and when it is not
in use.
• Drain humidity from the
tank often. A dry and clean
tank will help against
corrosion.
• Pull the pressure release valve ring daily to ensure the
valve works properly and to remove any obstruction.
• If transporting the compressor fasten it correctly. Release
the tank pressure before carrying.
• Protect the air hose and power cable from damage or
punctures. Inspect weekly to detect any weak or worn out
points. Replace if necessary.
After using the compressor
