SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
 Never use an electrical adaptor with this grounded
plug.
 Check damaged parts. Before further use of the air
compressor or air tool, a guard or other part that is
damaged should be carefully checked to determine
that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, bind-
ing of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and
any other conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of shock, fire, or
serious injury.
 Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will
draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is rec-
ommended for an extension cord 25 feet or less in
length. A cord exceeding 50 feet is not recommended.
If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The smaller
the gauge number, the heavier the cord. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating.
 Use caution when lifting the air compressor with the
main tank installed to ensure that it is properly con-
nected to the machine.
 This equipment incorporates parts, such as snap
switches, receptacles, and the like that tend to pro-
duce arcs or sparks and, therefore, when located in a
garage, it should be in a room or enclosure provided for
the purpose, or should be 18 in. (457 mm) or more above
the floor.
 Never store a tool with air connected. Storing the tool
with air connected can result in unexpected firing and
possible serious personal injury.
 Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the
operation is dusty. Following this rule will reduce the risk
of serious personal injury.
 If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
only by the manufacturer or by an authorized service
center to avoid risk.
 Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use
them to instruct others who may use this product. If you
loan someone this product, loan them these instructions
also.
