area. It is normal for the motor and
pressure switch to produce sparks while
operating. If sparks come into contact with
vapors from gasoline or other solvents,
they may ignite, causing fire or explosion.
Always operate the compressor in a well–
ventilated area. Do not smoke while
spraying. Do not spray where sparks or
flame are present. Keep compressor as far
from spray area as possible.
2. RISK OF BURSTING. Do not
weld, drill or modify the air tank
of this compressor. Welding or
modifications on the air
compressor tank can severely impair tank
strength and cause an extremely hazardous
condition. Welding or modifying the tank in
any manner will void the warranty.
3. RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK. Never use an electric
air compressor outdoors when
it is raining or on a wet surface,
as it may cause an electric shock.
4. RISK OF INJURY. This unit
starts automatically. ALWAYS
shut off the main power
disconnect, and bleed all
pressure from the system before servicing
the compressor, and when the compressor
is not in use. Do not use the unit with the
shrouds or belt guard removed. Serious
injury could occur from contact with
moving parts.
5. RISK OF BURSTING. Check
the manufacturer's maximum
pressure rating for air tools and
accessories. Compressor outlet
pressure must be regulated so as to never
exceed the maximum pressure rating of the
tool. Relieve all pressure through the hose
before attaching or removing accessories.

serious injury if the spray penetrates the
skin.
9. RISK OF BURSTING. Do not
adjust the relief valve for any
reason. Doing so voids all
warranties. The relief valve has
been pre-set at the factory for the
maximum pressure of this unit. Personal
injury and /or property damage may result if
the relief valve is tampered with.
10. RISK OF BURSTING.Do not
use plastic or pvc pipe for
compressed air. Use only
gavanized steel pipe and fittings
for compressed air distribution lines.
11. RISK OF BURSTING.Failure
to properly drain condensed
water from air tank, causing rust
and thinning of the steel air
tank. Drain air tank daily or after each use. If
air tank develops a leak, replace it
