 WARNING

Always wear eye protection during maintenance. If 

operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.

 WARNING

Always release all pressure, disconnect from power 

supply, and allow unit to cool to the touch before 

cleaning or making repairs on the air station.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics 

are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial 

solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use clean cloths 

to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc. Any continued loss of air 

after performing the above steps indicates a problem with 

the safety valve. Discontinue use and seek service before 

continued use of the air station. If air leaks after the ring has 

been released or if the valve is stuck and cannot be actuated 

by the ring, do not use the air station until the safety valve has 

been replaced. Use of the air station in this condition could 

result in serious personal injury.

 WARNING

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum 

based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact 

with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or 

destroy plastic which may result in serious personal 

injury.  Electric  tools  used  on  fiberglass  material, 

wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject 

to accelerated wear and possible premature failure 

because  the  fiberglass  chips  and  grindings  are  highly 

abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. 

Consequently, we do not recommend using this product 

for extended work on these types of materials. However, 

if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely 

important to clean the product using compressed air.

LUBRICATION

All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a 

sufficient  amount  of  high  grade  lubricant  for  the  life  of 

the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no 

further lubrication is required.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

Recycle raw materials instead of disposing 

of as waste. The machine, accessories 

and packaging should be sorted for 

environmental-friendly recycling.

Local Authority or retailer for recycling advice.

Risk of injury. Do not direct air stream at body. 

Do not use compressed air for breathing. Do 

not carry while painting.

Risk  of  fire  or  explosion.  Do  not  spray 

flammable  liquids  in  a  confined  area.  Spray 

area must be well ventilated. Do not smoke 

while spraying or spray where spark or flame 

is present. Keep compressors as far from 

spraying area as possible. Keep compressor  

at least 4.6 m (15 feet) away from spraying 

area and all explosive vapours.
