WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these
chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust
masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
A
WARNING! READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL
INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow all instructions
listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/
or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
[] Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents.
[] Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating an handheld inflator. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
[] Operate handheld inflator in an open area at least
18 in. away from any wall or object that could re=
strict the flow of fresh air to ventilation openings.

PERSONAL SAFETY
[] Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating an handheld infla-
tor. Do not use handheld inflator while tired or un-
der the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating handheld inflator
may result in serious personal injury.
[] Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing,
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
[] Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the
locked or off position before inserting battery pack.

hair. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be drawn
into air vents.
[] Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the
handheld inflator in unexpected situations.
TOOL USE AND CARE
[] Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your
application. The correct tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it is designed.
[] Check hoses for weak or worn condition before
each use, making certain all connections are se-
cure. Do not use if defect is found. Purchase a new
hose or notify an authorized service center for exami-
nation or repair.
[] Release all pressures within the system slowly. Dust
and debris may be harmful.
[] Do not use handheld inflator if switch does not turn it

and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth
when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petro-
leum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean
your handheld inflator. Following this rule will reduce the
risk of loss of control and deterioration of the enclosure
plastic.
[] Never point any handheld inflator toward yourself
or others.
[] Keep the exterior of the handheld inflator dry, clean,
and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean
cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline,
petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to
clean the unit. Following this rule will reduce the risk of
deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
[] Do not exceed the pressure rating of any compo=
nent in the system.
[] Protect material lines and air lines from damage or
puncture. Keep hose and power cord away from sharp
objects, chemical spills, oil, solvents, and wet floors.

carry the charger. Do not pull the charger cord rather
than the plug when disconnecting from receptacle.
Damage to the cord or charger could occur and create
an electric shock hazard. Replace damaged cords
immediately.
[] Make sure cord is located so that it will not
be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact
with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress. This will reduce the
risk of accidental falls, which could cause injury, and
damage to the cord, which could result in electric
shock.
[] Keep cord and charger from heat to prevent
damage to housing or internal parts.
[] Do not let gasoline, oils, petroleum-based products,
etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain
chemicals that can damage, weaken, or destroy
plastic.
[] An extension cord should not be used unless
absolutely necessary. Use of improper extension
cord could result in a risk of fire and electric shock. If
extension cord must be used, make sure:
a. That pins on plug of extension cord are the same
number, size and shape as those of plug on charger.
b. That extension cord is properly wired and in good
electrical condition; and
c. That wire size is large enough for AC ampere rating
of charger as specified below:
Cord Length (Feet) 25' 50' 100'
