General Safety Information

GENERAL SAFETY
 Since the air compressor and other 
components (material pump, spray 
guns, 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 as well as in the United States, 
the National Electrical Codes (NEC) 
and Occupational Safety and Health 
Act (OSHA).
 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 unit.
6.  Do not stand on or use the 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.
8.  Check all fasteners at frequent 
intervals for proper tightness.
 Motors, 
   electrical 
equipment and controls can 
cause electrical arcs that 
will ignite a fl ammable gas 
or vapor. Never operate or repair in or 
near a fl ammable gas or vapor. Never 
store fl ammable liquids or gases in the 
vicinity of the compressor.
 Never 
   operate 
compressor without a 
beltguard. This unit can 
start automatically without 
warning. Personal injury or property 
damage could occur from contact with 
moving parts.
  9.  Do not wear loose clothing or 
jewelry that will get caught in the 
moving parts of the unit.
 
 
 Compressor parts may be hot 
even if the unit is stopped.
 10. Keep fingers away from a running 
compressor; fast moving and hot 
parts will cause injury and/or burns.
11. If the equipment should start to 
vibrate abnormally, STOP the engine/
motor and check immediately for 
the cause. Vibration is generally a 
warning of trouble.
12. To reduce fire hazard, keep engine/
motor exterior free of oil, solvent, or 
excessive grease.
 
Never remove or
  attempt to adjust 
ASME safety valve. Keep safety 
valve free from paint and other 
accumulations.
 Never 
   attempt 
to repair or modify a tank! 
Welding, drilling or any other 
modifi cation will weaken the 
tank resulting in damage from rupture 
or explosion. Always replace worn, 
cracked or damaged tanks.
13. Tanks rust from moisture build-up, 
which weakens the tank. Make sure 
to drain tank regularly and inspect 
periodically for unsafe conditions 
such as rust formation and corrosion.
14. Fast moving air will stir up dust 
and debris which may be harmful. 
Release air slowly when draining 
moisture or depressurizing the 
compressor system.
 15. Keep hoses away from sharp objects, 
chemical spils, oil solvents and 
wet floors which can damage the 
hose. Do not operate compressor 
with damaged hose(s) or after the 
compressor or attachments have 
been dropped or damaged. Notify 
the nearest authorized service 
facility for examination, repair or 
other adjustments.
 
Never use plastic
  (PVC) pipe for 
compressed air. Serious injury or death 
could result.
