inadequate ventilation or restrictions to any of the compressor’s ventilation
openings. Never place objects against or on top of an air compressor.
Always operate air compressor at least 12 in. away from any wall or
obstruction. Always operate in a clean, dry and well-ventilated area.

Serious burn injuries could occur from touching exposed metal parts such

metal parts during operation and for an extended period of time after the
air compressor has shut down. Do not attempt maintenance on the unit
