CHART FOR MINIMUM WIRE SIZE OF EXTENSION CORD:

If in doubt, use larger cord.
Be sure to check voltage requirements of the tool to your incoming power source.

· 

Do not expose 

compressor to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a motor will increase 

the risk of electric shock.

· 

Do not let your fingers 

touch the terminals of plug when installing to or removing from the 

outlet.

· 

Ground fault circuit interrupters.

 If work area is not equipped with a permanently 

installed Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter outlet (GFCI), use a plug-in GFCI between 
compressor or extension cord and power receptacle.

PERSONAL SAFETY

· 

Stay alert, 

watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a 

compressor. Do not use a compressor while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, 
alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating a compressor may result in 
serious personal injury.

· 

Dress properly. 

Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair, 

clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be 
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.  

· 

Use safety apparel and equipment. 

Use ANSI-approved safety goggles or safety glasses 

with side shields which comply with current national standards, or when needed, a face 
shield. Use as dust mask in dusty work conditions. This applies to all persons in the work 
area. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves, dust collection systems, and hearing 
protection when appropriate.

· 

Avoid accidental starting.

 Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging tool 

into power outlet. In the event of a power failure, while a compressor is being used, turn the 
switch off to prevent surprise starting when power is restored.

· 

Do not overreach. 

Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

· 

Remove adjusting keys or wrenches 

before connecting to the power supply or turning 

on the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in 
personal injury.

TOOL USE AND CARE

· 

Never use a compressor

 with a malfunctioning switch.

 

Any compressor that cannot be 

controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired by an authorized service 
representative before using.

· 

Disconnect power 

from compressor and place the switch in the locked or off position 

before servicing, adjusting, installing accessories or attachments, or storing. Such 
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the compressor accidentally.

· 

Secure work 

with clamps or a vise instead of your hand to hold work when practical. This 

safety precaution allows for proper tool operation using both hands.  

· 

Store idle compressor. 

When a compressor is not in use, store them in a dry, secure 

place out of the reach of children. Inspect the compressor for good working condition prior 
to storage and before re-use.

· 

Use only accessories that are recommended 

by the manufacturer for your model.

 

Accessories that may be suitable for one compressor may create a risk of injury when used 
on another compressor.

· 

Never leave compressor

 running unattended.
