SAFETY AND HEALTH INSTRUCTIONS

FOR SAFE USE

THIS PRODUCT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR

DEATH IF NOT USED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. WE CAN NOT ANTICIPATE EVERY POSSIBLE CIRCUMSTANCE THAT MIGHT INVOLVE A POTENTIAL HAZARD. THE WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, DANGERS, AND SAFETY

SUGGESTIONS ARE THEREFORE NOT ALL INCLUSIVE. AS THE OWNER YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE

SAFE OPERATION OF THIS EQUIPMENT. ALWAYS

! DANGER MAKE SURE THAT ANYONE USING THIS EQUIPMENT HAS READ THIS MANUAL AND FOLLOWS THE SAFETY

WARNINGS TO HELP PREVENT THE POSSIBILITY OF PERSONAL INJURY TO THE OPERATOR OR ANYONE ELSE. IF ANY OPERATING PROCEDURE, INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE, OR WORK METHOD NOT SPECIFICALLY RECOMMENDED IS USED, YOU MUST SATISFY YOURSELF THAT IT IS SAFE FOR YOU AND OTHER PERSONS. YOU MUST ALSO ENSURE THAT THE PRODUCT WILL NOT BE DAMAGED OR MADE UNSAFE BY THE PROCEDURE YOU CHOSE.

In the event that an injury does occur, please seek medical attention at once since the equipment may cause injuries that are not initially recognized.

1. Use proper electrical power.

Connect unit to a dedicated circuit of the proper voltage, proper rated circuit breaker, and wired with the proper wire size and number of conductors.

Use supply Wires suitable for 110°C

Ensure that all connections are properly tightened. Improper connections could result, causing damage, injury, or death of the equipment operator.

This machine must be connected in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) Article 422-4 - Ed-31, Except as provided for in NEC 90-4.

This machine must be properly grounded to avoid fatal electrical shock in the event of an electrical malfunction. A ground connector screw should be fastened into the chassis to facilitate supplemental grounding as permitted by NEC 250-91.

5

Do not connect any other equipment to the electrical circuit serving this unit.

Do not replace a fuse or circuit breaker with one of a higher rating without being certain the wire size is adequate to handle the increased electrical load. If connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time-delay fuse marked “D”.

Keep all electrical connections dry and off of the ground.

Observe all local and national codes for the installation and use of this type of equipment.

Please use the following criteria for wire selection.

0 to 25 Feet from Main Power Source - At least the same size wire.

25 to 50 Feet from Main Power Source - At least one wire size larger.

50 to 100 Feet from Main Power Source - At least two wire sizes larger.

100 to 150 Feet from Main Power Source - At least three wire sizes larger.

If the wire size being used is too small, the voltage drop will be high, and this will cause the motor to draw excessive current and overheat or fail.

If there are any questions or problems with the electrical system being used please, do not hesitate in calling a local qualified electrician.

2. Wear proper protective clothing and equipment.

Wear full eye protection (preferably a face shield) while operating this product. The pressurized spray from this unit can cause severe injury to the eyes. It also may contain irritants, particles or caustic chemicals.

3. Do not operate with protective covers or guards removed.

Operating this machine with the protective guards or covers removed could expose high speed moving components which could allow the operator or bystander to become entangled. Entanglement in this equipment may result in serious injury, amputation, or death.

This unit may start and stop automatically when switch is in Auto mode.

4. Do not operate with any electrical panels or covers opened.

Operating this unit with any of the electrical panels or covers opened may expose high powered electrical connections and/or components which may come in contact with the operator. Contact with high powered electrical equipment by a person could result in serious injury or death.

5. Do not operate this unit with any of the safety controls bypassed.

This unit was designed with safety in mind. Never allow anyone to bypass, modify, or alter any of the

6

safety devices on this unit. If any of the safety devices appear to be dysfunctional, do not operate the unit and immediately contact a qualified technician.

Periodically have all the safety devices checked for proper operation.

6. Do not operate this unit with any components rated less than the maximum operating pressure of the unit.

This unit was designed to compress air at a specific operating pressure and volume.

Never exceed the pressure rating of air tools, spray guns, air operated accessories, tires, and other inflatables. This can cause them to explode or fly apart and could result in a serious injury.

7. Do not direct air stream at people, animals, or any living thing. Use only OHSA approved air blow guns.

The pressurized spray from this product can cause serious injury or death if sprayed at people, animals, or any living thing. This machine is capable of producing extremely high pressures and/or temperatures. The pressurized spray can cut exposed flesh like a knife. The spray can also cause severe irritation, cuts and/or burns. It can inject air and/or harmful particles and chemicals into the skin and other soft tissues, and this can cause serious injury or death. To prevent this from happening, always hold the air blow gun securely at all times. Never point spray at people, animals, or any living thing.

Never put hands or fingers over the spray tip while in operation. Use only OSHA approved air blow guns.

If an accident occurs and the spray appears to have penetrated the skin, even if the injury appears to be minor, seek medical care immediately. Do not treat as a simple cut. Be prepared to tell a physician what particles and/or chemicals you are using.

15. Do not operate near flammable or combustible materials.

This product is not intended for use in locations where fire or explosion hazards may exist due to the presence of flammable vapors, liquids or gases, or combustible dusts or fibers.

Heat generated by the compression cycle and/or drive system is released into the atmosphere and can cause materials in close proximity to reach their flash temperatures and ignite or explode.

Always operate the compressor in a well ventilated area.

Always store flammable or combustible materials in a secure location away from all open flames, sparks, and heat sources.

16. Do not remove any air line or receiver connections before relieving air pressure in the entire air system and receiver tank(s).

This machine is capable of producing extremely high pressures and/or temperatures. The pressurized spray can cut exposed flesh like a knife. The spray can also cause severe irritation, cuts and/or burns. It can inject air and/or harmful particles and chemicals into the skin and other soft tissues, and this can result in serious injury or death. To prevent this from happening, always relieve the air pressure in the entire system and in the receiver tanks before removing any air lines or receiver connections.

17. Do not operate at pressures, temperatures and rotational speeds in excess of the manufacturers recommendations.

With safety in mind, the unit was designed and is tested to withstand specific operating pressures, temperatures, and volumes. The different components of the machine are matched to produce the factory set operating pressure and volume. Any modification of these settings can cause damage to the compressor and/or maintenance and operating personnel.

Never make adjustments and/or parts substitutions to alter the factory set operating pressures, temperatures, and volumes.

18. Do not spray flammable or toxic liquids in confined areas. Areas must be well ventilated. Follow all manufacturers supplied instructions of the material to be sprayed and the warnings associated with those products.

Never spray flammable liquids in confined areas. The flammable vapors may accumulate and then ignite causing an explosion. Always spray flammable liquids in a well ventilated area free from combustible materials, gasoline, or solvent vapors.

9

Never spray toxic liquids or chemicals in confined areas. The toxic vapors may accumulate and overcome the operator. Injury or death may result.

Read and follow all the safety instructions provided on the product label and Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the material being used.

Use a NIOSH/MSHA approved respirator designed for use each specific application.

Always wear the appropriate approved safety equipment.

Always operate the compressor in a well ventilated area.

Always store flammable materials in a secure location away from all open flames, sparks, and heat sources.

19. Use this machine only in a well ventilated area.

This unit requires adequate ventilation. Heat generated by the compression cycle of the unit must be released into the atmosphere. Failure to allow adequate ventilation or restrict the air flow may cause the machine to overheat.

20. To prevent corrosion, drain receiver tank(s) after 4 hours of use or at the end of each day, whichever comes first. Have the receiver tank(s) inspected for corrosion and/or damage periodically.

Always drain receiver tanks daily or after each use. If the receiver or any air lines develop leaks, immediately replace them. There is a risk of a violent tank or air line explosion which can cause damage to property and can injure or kill people nearby.

All pressure vessels should be inspected once every year or more often depending on use. To find your state pressure vessel inspector, look under Division of Labor and Industries in the government section of a phone book.

Never make modifications, weld, drill into, or attempt any repairs to compressor tanks.

If modifications are necessary, take the tank to an A.S.M.E. certified coded pressure vessel shop that can perform these modifications. The shop will need an ASME “R” stamp.

Never make adjustments and/or parts substitutions to alter the factory set operating pressures, temperatures, and volumes.

21. Do not use in flammable or combustible atmosphere.
