SAFETY WARNINGS

READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS BEFORE USING AIR COMPRESSOR

Never inhale air from the air
compressor either directly or from a
breathing device connected to the
air compressor.

This air compressor was designed
for outdoor use.  Never operate this
air compressor in an enclosed area.
Always make certain there is
adequate ventilation (fresh outside
air) for breathing and combustion.
This will prevent the buildup of
dangerous carbon monoxide gases.
Beware of poorly ventilated areas,
or areas with exhaust fans which
can cause poor air exchange.

Operate air compressor only in a
well ventilated area.  Follow all
safety instructions provided with the
materials you are spraying.  Use of
a respirator may be required when
working with some materials.

Serious injury or death could occur
from inhaling compressed air.  The
air stream may contain carbon
monoxide, toxic vapors or solid
particles.

Serious injury or death may occur
from inhaling engine exhaust.

Sprayed materials such as paint,
paint solvents, paint remover,
insecticides, weed killers, etc.
contain harmful vapors and
poisons.
