WHAT COULD HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT

The solvents 1,1,1- Trichloroethane and Methy-

lene Chloride can chemically react with aiumi-

num used in paint spray guns, paint pumps, etc.,

and cause an explosion. These solvents can

also react with galvanized components and

cause corrosion and weakening of parts. This

does not affect your air compressor- but it may

affect the equipment being used.

Your air compressor is powered by electricity.

Like any other electrically powered device, if it is

not used properly it can cause electrical shock.

This compressor cycles automatically when the

switch is in the "On-Auto" position. If you

attempt repair or maintenance while the com-

pressor is operating, or with the switch in the

"On-Auto" position, you can expose yourself to

moving parts. These moving parts can cause

serious injury or damage, if they come into con-

tact with you or your clothing.

Itis normal for compressed air to contain toxic or

irritating vapors. Such vapors are harmful if

inhaled.

Certain materials you are spraying (like paint,

weed killer, sand or insecticide) can be harmful

if you inhale them.

If the material you intend to spray contains the sol-

vents listed at left (read the label or data sheet), do

not use accessories that contain aluminum or gal-

vanized parts. You must either change the material

you intend to spray, or use only stainless steel

spray equipment.

Always unplug the air compressor prior to mainte-

nance or repair.

Never use the air compressor outdoors when it is

raining.

Always plug the cord into an electrical outlet with

the specified voltage and adequate fuse

protection.

Always unplug the unit and release air pressure

from the tank and any accessories before doing

repair or maintenance.

Never operate the compressor with the belt guard

removed.

Never directly inhale the compressed air produced

by this unit.

Read labels and safety data for all materials you

spray. Follow al! safety precautions.

Use a mask or respirator if there is a chance of

inhaling toxic sprayed materials. Masks and

respirators have limits and will only provide protec-

tion against some kinds and limited amounts of

toxic material. Read mask and respirator instruc-

tions carefully. Consult with a safety expert or

industrial hygienist if you are not sure about the use

of a certain mask or respirator.

Modifications to the air compressor can cause

the air tank to rupture or explode.

Changing the air tank will cause it to weaken.

The tank can rupture or explode.

Do not adjust, remove or tamper with the safety

valve or pressure switch. Ifsafety valve or pressure

switch replacement is necessary, a part with the

same pressure rating must be used.

For Service Replacement use only the motor, pul-

ley and belt designed as standard service replace-

ment parts indicated in the parts list. Use of

improper parts could cause overloading of your

unit and electrical supply.

Do not substitute a gas engine for the motor.., this

compressor was not designed to be powered by a

gasoline engine.

Never replace the compressor pump with a differ-

ent model.

Never increase the compressor pump speed.

Do not fix mount or permanently attach the com-

pressor feet. This outfit is intended for portable use

(with wheels) only.

Never drill into, weld, or in any way modify the air

tank. Do not repair a leaking tank, it must be

replaced.

Never replace the air tank with a different model or

a larger tank.
