when driving with aired-down tires. Reinflate tires before high-speed roadway travel.

2. Never exceed 20 M.P.H. when driving with partially inflated tires.

3. Never make sharp turns while driving with reduced tire pressure.

4. Re-inflate tires before high speed traveling onto roadways.

5. Use heat-resistant, minimum 200 PSI-rated working pressure extension hose.

Do not use aftermarket hoses with less than 200 PSI working pressure. Some aftermarket hoses

may not be suitable for use with this air compressor due to heat and pressure typically generated

by this type of air compressors.

IMPORTANT: The accessories included with this kit are both open and closed ended. Always use

the tire inflation gun supplied to use the Automatic function of this compressor.

CAUTION: Never touch the air compressor or fittings connected to the air compressor other than

the ON/OFF switch with bare hands during or immediately after use. The extension hose and fittings

connected extension hose will become very HOT during and after use. If necessary, wear heat

resistant gloves to remove hose from the compressor quick connect stud.

RECOMMENDATION:

This compressor is equipped with a poppet pressure release head valve. Head pressure will slowly

decrease (pressure will be released through the intake port of the compressor) to allow smooth

re-starts under pressure. If compressor’s is hooked up to power source and if the power switch

is left in the ON position for more than 7 to 8 minutes, Compressor will automatically turn on for a

short duration (3 to 5 seconds) to recover pressure due to built-in pressure switch. This is a normal

function of the compressor. Always shut off power to the compressor when the compressor is

not in use.

MAINTENANCE & REPAIRS:

Your air compressor is equipped with permanently lubricated, maintenance-free motor.

Never try to lubricate the compressor. Regularly clean dust and dirt from compressor cooling fins

and motor housing. All repairs should be performed by Manufacturer or Manufacturer authorized
