•
Always wear safety goggles or equivalent eye protection. Compressed air must never be aimed at anyone or any part of the body.
•
When not in use, the compressor should be stored in dry place. Keep out of reach of children. Keep children and animals away from the work
area.

individuals unfamiliar with its operation or unauthorized personnel.
•
Keep all screws, bolts, and plates tightly mounted. Check regularly.
•
The motor air vent must be kept clean so that air can freely flow at all times. Check for dust build-up frequently and clean as required.
•
If the equipment appears to be operating unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise appears defective, stop using it immediately and
arrange for repairs by a authorized service centre.

•
Do not operate the compressor without an air filter or restrict the air flow around the equipment.
