GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
Do not operate unit if damaged during shipping, handling or use.
Damage may result in bursting and cause injury or property damage.
Since the air compressor and other components (filters, lubricators,
hoses, etc.) used, make up a high pressure pumping system, the
following safety precautions must be observed at all times:
1.
Read all manuals included with this product carefully. Be
thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the
equipment.
2.
Follow all local electrical and safety codes
3.
Only persons well acquainted with these rules of safe operation
should be allowed to use the compressor.
4.
Keep visitors away and NEVER allow children in the work area.
5.
Wear safety glasses and use hearing protection when operating
the pump or unit.
6.
Do not stand on or use the pump or unit as a handhold.
7.
Before each use, inspect compressed air system and electrical
components for signs of damage, deterioration, weakness or
leakage. Repair or replace defective items before using.
Compressor parts may be hot even if the unit
is stopped. Wait for at least 5 minutes after
shutting the unit down before moving the unit.
8.
Check all fasteners at frequent intervals for proper tightness.
9.
Keep fingers away from a running compressor; fast moving and
hot parts will cause injury and/or burns.
10. If the equipment should start to abnormally vibrate, STOP the
engine/motor and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is
generally a warning of trouble.
11. To reduce fire hazard, keep engine/motor exterior free of
oil, solvent, or excessive grease. Never remove or attempt to
adjust safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other
accumulations.
12. Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any
other modification will weaken the tank resulting in damage from
rupture or explosion. Always replace worn or damaged tanks.
Drain liquid from tank daily.
13. Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank.
Make sure to drain tank daily and inspect periodically for unsafe
conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
