General Safety Information
(Continued)

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.
