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.
• 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.
Tires:
•
Over inflation of tires could
result in serious injury and
property damage.
• Use a tire pressure gauge
to check the tires pressure
before each use and while
inflating tires; see the tire
sidewall for the correct tire
pressure.
NOTE:
Air tanks, compressors
and similar equipment used to
inflate tires can fill small tires
very rapidly. Adjust pressure
regulator on air supply to no
more than the rating of the
tire pressure. Add air in small
increments and frequently use
the tire gauge to prevent over
inflation.
WARNING: RISK FROM FLYING OBJECTS
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• The compressed air stream
can cause soft tissue
damage to exposed skin and
can propel dirt, chips, loose
particles and small objects
at high speed, resulting in
property damage or personal
injury.
•
Always wear certified safety
equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye
protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3)
with side shields when using
the compressor.
• Never point any nozzle or
sprayer toward any part of
the body or at other people or
animals.
• Always turn the compressor
off and bleed pressure
from the air hose and air
tank before attempting
maintenance, attaching tools
or accessories.
