AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS

 

Know your product. Read operator’s manual carefully. 

Learn the product’s applications and limitations, as well 

as the specific potential hazards related to the product. 

Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric shock, 

fire, or serious injury.

 

Drain the air tank of moisture after each day’s use. If the 

product will not be used for a while, it is best to leave the 

drain valve open until next use. This will allow moisture 

to completely drain out and help prevent corrosion on 

the inside of air tank.

 

Risk of fire or explosion. Do not spray flammable liquid 

in a confined area. Spray area must be well ventilated. 

Do not smoke while spraying or spray where spark or 

flame is present. Keep the product at least 10 m (33 

feet) from the spraying area and all explosive vapours.

 

Risk of bursting. Do not adjust regulator to result 

in output pressure greater than marked maximum 

pressure of attachment. Do not use at pressure greater 

than 8.3 bar.

 

To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose the 

product to rain. Store the product indoors.

 

Inspect the air tank yearly for rust, pin holes, or other 

imperfections that could cause it to become unsafe.

 

Never weld or drill holes in the air tank.

 

Make sure the hose is free of obstructions or snags. 

Entangled or snarled hoses can cause loss of balance 

or footing and may become damaged.

 

Use the product only for its intended use. Do not alter or 

modify the product from the original design or function.

 

Always be aware that misuse and improper handling 

of the product can cause injury to yourself and others.

 

Never leave the product unattended with the air hose 

attached to a tool.

 

Never point any air tool toward yourself or others.

 

Do not operate the product if it does not contain a 

legible warning label.

 

Do not continue to use the product or hose which leaks 

air or does not function properly.

 

Always disconnect the air supply and remove the 

battery pack before making adjustments, servicing the 

product, or when the product is not in use.

 

Do not attempt to pull or carry the product by the hose.

 

Your tool may require more air consumption than the 

product is capable of providing.

 

Always follow all safety rules recommended by the 

manufacturer of your air tool, in addition to all safety 

rules for the air compressor. Following this rule will 

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

 

Never direct a jet of compressed air toward people or 

animals. Take care not to blow dust and dirt towards 

yourself or others. Following this rule will reduce the risk 

of serious injury.

 

Do not use the product to spray chemicals. Your lungs 

can be damaged by inhaling toxic fumes. A respirator 

may be necessary in dusty environments or when 

spraying paint. Do not carry the product while painting.

 

Inspect product cords and hoses periodically and, 

if damaged, have them repaired at your nearest 

authorised service centre. Constantly stay aware of 

cord location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of 

electric shock or fire.

 

Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, 

breakage of parts, and any other condition that may 

affect the product’s operation. If damaged, have the 

product serviced before using. Many accidents are 

caused by poorly maintained products.

 

When fixed guards have to be removed for periodic 

maintenance or repair, their fixing systems shall remain 

attached to the guard or machinery when the guards 

are removed.

 

Never store a tool with an air hose connected. Storing 

the tool while connected to an air supply can result in 

unexpected operation, firing or movement and possible 

serious personal injury.

 

Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the 

operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the 

risk of serious personal injury.

 

Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and 

use them to instruct others who may use the product. 

If you loan someone the product, loan them these 

instructions also.

 

Operate the product from the front of the control panel.

 

When the product is in operation, many parts of 

machine may cause a high temperature. Use necessary 

personal protection equipment such as gloves to avoid 

injuries resulting from a high temperature.

 

The product is not intended for use by persons 

(including children) with reduced physical, sensory 

or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and 

knowledge. Children should be supervised to ensure 

that they do not play with the product.

BATTERY AND CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS

 

 WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product 

damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your 

tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to 

flow  inside  them.  Corrosive  or  conductive  fluids,  such 

as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach 

or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short 

circuit.

 

Recharge only with the charger specified by the 

manufacturer.

 A charger that is suitable for one type 

of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with 

another battery pack.

 

Use power tools only with specifically designated 

battery packs.

 Use of any other battery packs may 

create a risk of injury and fire.

 

When battery pack is not in use, keep it away 

from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, 

keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, 

which can make a connection from one terminal to 

another.

 Shorting the battery terminals together may 

cause burns or a fire.
