1. Always perform pre-operation checks before
starting up the compressor.

2. Never leave inflammable objects or materials near
to the compressor.

3. Always check oil level before using the
compressor.

thoroughly after shut-down before handling.

5. Do not operate above the maximum working
pressure of 115 psi (7.8 bar).

6.  Avoid using the compressor with an extension

the motor overheat.

pressure switch knob (Fig 3); only switch off at the
mains in case of emergency.
