GENERAL SAFETY
Since the air compressor and other
components used (filters, lubricators,
hoses, etc.), 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 US,
National Electrical Codes (NEC) and
Occupational Safety and Health Act
(OSHA).
3. Only persons well acquainted with
these rules of safe operation should

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
flammable gas or vapor. Never operate
or repair in or near a flammable gas or
vapor. Never store flammable liquids or
gases in the vicinity of the compressor.
Compressor parts may be hot
even if the unit is stopped.
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

from paint and other accumulations.
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.
12. 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.
13. Fast moving air will stir up dust
and debris which may be harmful.
Release air slowly when draining
moisture or depressurizing the
compressor system.
14. Indoor use only.

It is extremely important to use the
compressor in a clean, well ventilated
area where the surrounding air
temperature will not be more than
100°F.
A minimum clearance of 18 inches
between the compressor and a wall is
required because objects could obstruct
air flow.
Do not locate the
compressor air inlet
near steam, paint spray, sandblast areas
or any other source of contamination.
This debris will damage the motor.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1. This product is for use on a nominal
120 volt circuit and has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Figure 1. Make sure the
product is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration
as the plug. This product must
be grounded. In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for electric
current. This product is equipped
with a cord having a grounding
wire with an appropriate grounding
plug. Plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
Improper use of grounding
plug can result in a possible
risk of electrical shock!
Do not use a
grounding adapter
with this product!
2. If repair or replacement of cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect
grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal. The wire with insulation
having an external surface that
is green (with or without yellow
stripes) is the grounding wire.
Never connect
green (or green and
yellow) wire to a live terminal.
3. Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether product is
properly grounded. Do not modify
Grounded

damage will result from inadequate
wiring, etc.
MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump. When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous use
for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tank. When using a
paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank through the
hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material.
IMPORTANT: This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job, especially
when spraying other than water based paints. If sandblasting, it will cause the sand
to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective. A filter in the air line, located as
near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate this moisture.
