WARNING! 

The warnings, precautions and instructions 

discussed in this manual may not cover all possible conditions 

and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the 

operators that common senses and cautions are factors which 

cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the 

operator. 

1.  Keep work area clean and well-lit – Cluttered, dark 

areas invite accidents. 

2.  Replacement parts – When servicing this unit, use only 

identical replacement parts.

3.  Keep children, bystanders, and pets away – All 

spectators, including pets, should be kept a safe distance 

away from the work area.

4.  Do not use the compressor if the switch doesn't 

turn it on or off – 

any electric appliance that cannot be 

controlled with the ON/OFF switch is dangerous and must 

be repaired. 

5.  Do not force the tool – It will perform better with less 

likelihood of personal or mechanical injury if it is used at 

the rate for which it is designed.

6.  Wear personal protective equipment – When using this 

tool, wear safety glasses with side shields or goggles to 

provide necessary eye protection. Wear ear defenders to 

prevent hearing damage. 

7.  Remove the battery – Remove the battery when the 

tool is not in use, before servicing it, when changing 

accessories, and when performing any other maintenance 

task.

8.  Store idle tool indoors – When not in use, the air 

compressor should be stored indoors in a dry and high or 

locked-up place out of the reach of children.

9.  Maintain the air compressor with care – Keep the air 

compressor clean for optimal performance and to reduce 

the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and 

changing accessories. Keep dry, clean and free from oil 

and grease. Check for misalignment or binding for moving 

parts, breakage of parts and any other conditions that 

may affect the compressor's operation. If damaged, have 

the compressor repaired before use.

10. Use the right tool – Do not use the air compressor for 

any job except that for which it is intended.

11. Avoid dangerous environments – Do not use the air 

compressor in explosive atmospheres, such as in the 

presence of flammable liquids, gases, and dust. The 

compressor's motor may generate sparks and ignite the 

dust and fumes.  

12. Do not expose the air compressor to rain or wet 

conditions – Water entering the air compressor will 

increase the risk of electric shock.   

13. Stay alert – Watch what you are doing. Use common 

sense. Do not operate the air compressor when you are 

tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol

, or other 

medication.

14. Avoid unintentional starting – Ensure that the switch 

is in the OFF position before inserting the battery or 

transporting the unit.
