16. 

Do not operate this tool if it does not contain a 

legible warning label.

17. 

Do not continue to use a tool or hose that leaks air 

or does not function properly.

18. 

Always disconnect the air supply and power 

supply before making adjustments, servicing a 

tool, or when a tool is not in use.

19. 

Do not attempt to pull or carry the air station by 

the hose.

20. 

Your tool may require more air consumption than 

this air station is capable of providing.

21. 

Always follow all safety rules recommended by 

the manufacturer of your air tool, in addition to all 

safety rules for the air station.

 Following this rule will 

reduce the risk of serious personal injury.

22. 

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.

23. 

Do not use this air station 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 while painting.

24. 

Inspect tool cords and hoses periodically and, 

if damaged, have repaired at your nearest 

Authorized Service Center.

 Constantly stay aware of 

cord location. Following this rule will reduce the risk of 

electric shock or fire.

25. 

Never use an electrical adaptor with this grounded 

plug.

26. 

Check damaged parts.

 Before further use of the air 

station or air tool, a guard or other part that is damaged 

should be carefully checked to determine that it will 

operate properly and perform its intended function.

27. 

Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of 

moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and 

any other conditions that may affect its operation.

 

A guard or other part that is damaged should be 

properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service 

center. Following this rule will reduce the risk of shock, 

fire, or serious injury.

28. 

Make sure your extension cord is in good 

condition. When using an extension cord, be sure 

to use one heavy enough to carry the current 

your product will draw.

 A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) 

of at least 14 is recommended for an extension cord 

7.6 m or less in length. A cord exceeding 15 m is not 

recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. 

The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. 

An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage 

resulting in loss of power and overheating.

29. 

This equipment incorporates parts, such as snap 

switches, receptacles, and the like that tend to 

produce arcs or sparks and, therefore, when 

located in a garage, it should be in a room or 

enclosure provided for the purpose, or should be 

457 mm or more above the floor.

30. 

Never store tool with air connected.

 Storing the tool 

with air connected can result in unexpected firing and 

possible serious personal injury.

31. 

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.

32. 

Do not operate coil air hoses above the rated 

psi. 

Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious 

personal injury.

33. 

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must 

be replaced only by the manufacturer or by an 

authorized service center to avoid risk.

34. 

Save these instructions.

 Refer to them frequently 

and use them to instruct others who may use this 

tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these 

instructions also.

ELECTRICAL

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

This tool is powered by a precision built electric motor. 

It should be connected to a power supply that is 240V, 

AC only (normal household current), 50 Hz. Do not 

operate this product on direct current (DC). A substantial 

voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will 

overheat. If the air station does not operate when plugged 

into an outlet, double check the power supply.

SPEED AND WIRING

This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or 

with lower voltage.
For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the 

horsepower rating of the motor. A line intended only for 

lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that 

is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a 

greater distance. A line that can support one power tool 

may not be able to support two or three tools.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. In the event of a 

malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path 

of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk 

of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric 

cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and 

a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a 

matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in 

accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Do not 

modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the
