Serious injury or death could occur from inhaling compressed air. The air stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles.
Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling engine exhaust.
Sprayed materials such as paint, paint solvents, paint remover, insecticides, weed killers, etc. contain harmful vapors and poisons.
Never inhale air from the air compressor either directly or from a breathing device connected to the air compressor.
This air compressor was designed for outdoor use. Never operate this air compressor in an enclosed area. Always make certain there is adequate ventilation (fresh outside air) for breathing and combustion. This will prevent the buildup of dangerous carbon monoxide gases. Beware of poorly ventilated areas, or areas with inadequate exhaust fans.
Operate air compressor only in a well ventilated area. Follow all safety instructions provided with the materials you are spraying. Use of a respirator may be required when working with some materials.
