DRAIN LIQUID FROM AIR TANK DAILY

- Use the drain valve located on the bottom of the air tank to drain. Failure to properly drain liq-

uid from the tank will cause rust from moisture buildup, which weakens the tank and could lead to a violent tank explosion. Periodically
inspect the tanks for unsafe conditions such as corrosion, cracked welds, and leaks.

Release air slowly when draining moisture or depressurizing the air compressor. Fast moving air will stir up dust, dirt and debris that
may be harmful.

RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION

- Avoid dangerous environments. Do not spray combustible/flammable liquid in a confined area. Spray

area must be well ventilated. Do not smoke while spraying or spray where spark or flame is present. Arcing parts - keep compressor at
least 20' away from spraying area and all explosive vapors. Do not use compressor near gasoline or other flammable materials. Operate
the air compressor in a well-ventilated area. Do not direct paint or other spray material towards the compressor. Read and follow all
safety instructions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator designed for use with your specific applica-
tion.

RISK OF INJURY

- Do not direct air stream at body. Use eye protection.  Compressor starts automatically. Do not touch MOVING

PARTS. Keep guards in place. Compressor does not supply breathable air.

RISK OF BURSTING

- Do not adjust regulator to result in output pressure greater than marked maximum pressure of attachment. If a

regulator has not been installed, use only attachment rated at 200 PSI or higher. Do not weld on or repair tank - A DAMAGED TANK
MUST BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. Do not operate without proper safety valve in place.

Never attempt to repair or make modifications to the tank or its attachments. Welding, drilling or any other modifications may weaken
the tank, which may result in damage from rupture or explosion. Never remove or attempt to adjust the pressure switch, safety valve, or
other components that control tank pressure. Never substitute parts or attempt to alter the factory set operating pressures.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK

- Disconnect AIR COMPRESSOR from power source before servicing. USE PROPERLY grounded ELEC-

TRICAL CONNECTIONS - Do not use grounding adaptors. Do not use in wet or damp locations or expose to rain.  Keep all connections
dry and off the ground. Do not allow power cords to come into contact with water. Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Do not pull
on the electrical cord to disconnect from the power outlet. Store air compressor indoors when not in use. Any electrical wiring or
repairs performed on this air compressor should be done by authorized service personal in accordance with national and local electrical
codes.

RISK TO BREATHING

- This air compressor is not designed, nor intended for the supply of breathable quality air. Air produced by this

unit may contain carbon monoxide or other toxic vapors. Do not inhale air from the compressor or from a breathing device connected
to it.

Operate the air compressor in a well-ventilated area. Read and follow all safety instructions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to
use an approved respirator designed for use with your specific application.

RISK OF BURNS

- Keep hands and fingers away from exposed metal parts on a running air compressor. Air compressors generate sig-

nificant heat during normal operation, which can cause serious burns. The compressor will remain hot for some time after operation
and should not be touched or moved until cool.
