SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using air compressors and compressed air accesso-
ries, basic safety rules and precautions should always be
followed including the following:
1. Read all instructions fully before operating this
compressor.
2. Never use a compressor that is defective, operating
abnormally, making strange noises, or otherwise
appears defective. Stop using compressor immediately
and arrange for repairs by an authorized service center.
3. Do not modify compressor. Always contact the autho-
rized service center for any repairs.
4. Use only the manufacturer’s replacement parts.
Replacement parts not manufactured by Schrader
Bridgeport may void your warranty and can lead to
compressor malfunction and personal injuries.
Replacement parts are available from the manufac-
turer.
5. Wiring, starters, breakers and other related electrical
equipment should conform to electrical codes when
operating any electric air compressors. Electrical con-
nections should be made by a licensed electrician.
6. Always disconnect compressor from its power source
and remove the compressed air from the tank before
servicing, inspecting, cleaning, replacing, or checking
any parts.
7. Do not operate compressor without belt guard. If main-
tenance or servicing requires the removal of a guard or
safety feature, be sure to replace the guard or safety
feature before resuming operation of the compressor.
8. Do not use gasoline compressor if Load Genie does
not operate properly. Have defective Load Genie
replaced by an authorized service center.
9. Avoid unintentional starting. Do not move the compres-
sor while connected to its power source or when the air
tank is filled with compressed air.
10.Turn off the compressor when not in use. Then open
the drain cock to discharge the compressed air from
the air tank.
11. Do not expose compressor to rain. The compressor
should be stored in a dry clean environment.
12. Do not use compressor in the presence of flammable
liquids or gases. Compressor can produce sparks dur-
ing operation. Never use compressor in sites containing
lacquer, paint, benzine, thinner, gasoline, gases, adhe-
sive agents and other materials, which are combustible
or explosive.
13. Use only recommended air handling parts acceptable
for minimum pressure. Never use pressurized air
accessories or parts in the air system that are not suit-
able for the maximum air pressure involved. The risk
of bursting exists with use of unsuitable equipment.
Always maintain maximum pressure specified by the
manufacturer.
14. If your compressor is used for spraying, do not spray
in vicinity of open flame or other sources of ignition.
Always direct paint or sprayed material away from
compressor and locate compressor to minimize over
spray accumulation on compressor or sprayer parts.
15. Do not wipe plastic parts with solvent. Solvents such
as gasoline, thinner, benzine, carbon tetrachloride
and alcohol may damage and crack plastic parts.
Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth, lightly dampened
with soapy water and dry thoroughly. When using
cleaning solvent, follow the instructions provided by
the solvent manufacturer.
16. Keep pressure relief devices free from paint or other
accumulation. The motor air vent must be kept clean
so that air can freely flow at all times. Check for dust
build-up frequently.
17. Do not install Shutoff valves in the discharge line
between the compressor and the receiver unless
a safety valve, with adequate flow capacity and
pressure setting, is located between shutoff valve and
the compressor. Never operate a compressor without
all guards or safety features in place and in proper
working order.
18. Proper maintenance and care is necessary to ensure
safe operation of air compressor. Check compressor
according to the maintenance schedule provided in
this manual. Maintain compressor with care. Follow
instructions for lubrication. Keep all screws, bolts, and
plates tightly mounted. Check for damaged parts and
air leaks, daily. Check for alignment of moving parts,
binding of moving parts, guard, breakage of parts, and
any other conditions that may affect the operation of
compressor. Drain tank daily to prevent rust formation
and damage.
19. Do not operate any compressor with damaged wir-
ing or hosing, or after the compressor or air handling
parts have been dropped, damaged or show signs of
deterioration, weakness or leakage. Do not use them
if a deficiency is found. A unit that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized ser-
vice center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in
this Instruction Manual.
20. Keep clear of compressor while operating It may
become extremely hot during operation. To reduce
the risk of burns, do not touch tubes, heads, cyl-
inders or motors.
21. Never touch moving parts. Always wear safety gog-
gles or equivalent eye protection. Dress properly. Do
not wear loose clothing or jewelry. These can be
caught in moving parts. Wear protective hair covering
to contain long hair.
22. Never aim compressed air at anyone or any part of
the body.
23. Never operate a compressor in damp or wet location.
Protect yourself against electric shock. Prevent body
contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radia-
tors, ranges and refrigeration enclosures.
