RISK OF BURSTING

IT IS NORMAL FOR ELECTRICAL CONTACTS WITHIN THE
MOTOR AND PRESSURE SWITCH TO SPARK.

IF ELECTRICAL SPARKS FROM COMPRESSOR COME INTO
CONTACT WITH FLAMMABLE VAPORS, THEY MAY IGNITE,
CAUSING FIRE OR EXPLOSION.

RESTRICTING ANY OF THE COMPRESSOR VENTILATION
OPENINGS WILL CAUSE SERIOUS OVERHEATING AND
COULD CAUSE FIRE.

UNATTENDED OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT COULD
RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

ALWAYS 

OPERATE THE COMPRESSOR IN A

 WELL VENTILATED

AREA FREE OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR

SOLVENT VAPORS.

IF SPRAYING FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, 

LOCATE COMPRESSOR

AT LEAST 20 FEET AWAY FROM SPRAY AREA.

  AN ADDITIONAL

LENGTH OF HOSE MAY BE REQUIRED.

STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN A SECURE LOCATION

AWAY FROM COMPRESSOR.
NEVER PLACE OBJECTS AGAINST OR ON TOP OF COMPRESSOR.

OPERATE COMPRESSOR

 IN AN OPEN AREA AT LEAST 

12 INCHES

AWAY FROM 

ANY  WALL OR 

OBSTRUCTION

 THAT WOULD

RESTRICT THE FLOW OF FRESH AIR TO THE VENTILATION

OPENINGS.

OPERATE COMPRESSOR IN A CLEAN, DRY, WELL VENTI-
LATED AREA.  DO NOT OPERATE UNIT INDOORS OR IN ANY
CONFINED AREA.

ALWAYS REMAIN IN ATTENDANCE WITH THE PRODUCT
WHEN IT IS OPERATING.

  SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPROPER OPERATION OR MAINTENANCE OF THIS PRODUCT COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY AND PROPERTY
DAMAGE. READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL WARNINGS AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THIS EQUIPMENT.

RISK OF EXPLOSION OR FIRE

AIR TANK:  THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS COULD LEAD TO A WEAKENING OF THE TANK, AND RESULT IN A

VIOLENT TANK EXPLOSION AND COULD CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE OR SERIOUS INJURY.

DRAIN TANK DAILY OR AFTER EACH USE.  IF TANK DEVEL-
OPS A LEAK, REPLACE IT IMMEDIATELY WITH A NEW TANK OR
REPLACE THE ENTIRE COMPESSOR.

NEVER DRILL INTO, WELD, OR MAKE ANY MODIFICATIONS
TO THE TANK
 OR ITS ATTACHMENTS.

THE TANK IS DESIGNED TO WITHSTAND SPECIFIC OPERATING
PRESSURES.  NEVER MAKE ADJUSTMENTS OR PARTS
SUBSTITUTIONS TO ALTER THE FACTORY SET OPERATING
PRESSURES.

FOR ESSENTIAL CONTROL OF AIR PRESSURE, YOU MUST
INSTALL A PRESSURE REGULATOR AND PRESSURE GAUGE
TO THE AIR OUTLET
 OF YOUR COMPRESSOR. FOLLOW THE
EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATION AND
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE PRESSURE
RATING OF ATTACHMENTS. NEVER USE COMPRESSOR TO
INFLATE SMALL LOW-PRESSURE OBJECTS SUCH AS
CHILDREN’S TOYS, FOOTBALLS, BASKETBALLS. ETC.

1. FAILURE TO PROPERLY DRAIN CONDENSED WATER

FROM THE TANK, CAUSING RUST AND THINNING OF THE
STEEL TANK.

2. MODIFICATIONS OR ATTEMPTED REPAIRS TO THE TANK.

3. UNAUTHORIZED MODIFICATIONS TO THE UNLOADER

VALVE, SAFETY VALVE, OR ANY OTHER COMPONENTS
WHICH CONTROL
 TANK PRESSURE.

4. EXCESSIVE VIBRATION CAN WEAKEN THE AIR TANK

AND CAUSE RUPTURE OR  EXPLOSION.

ATTACHMENTS  & ACCESSORIES:

EXCEEDING THE PRESSURE RATING OF AIR TOOLS, SPRAY
GUNS, AIR OPERATED ACCESSORIES, TIRES AND OTHER
INFLATABLES CAN CAUSE THEM TO EXPLODE OR FLY
APART, AND COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY.
