SAFETY WARNINGS
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS BEFORE USING AIR COMPRESSOR
Serious injury or death may occur
from normal sparks in the engine
ignition system or engine exhaust/
muffler.
Injury or death may occur as a
result of improper fueling.
Serious injury may occur if any air
compressor ventilation openings
are restricted, causing the air
compressor to overheat and start
on fire.
Always operate air compressor in
a well ventilated area free of
flammable vapors, combustible
dust, gases or other combustible
materials.
If spraying flammable material,
locate the air compressor at least
20 feet away from the spray area.
(An additional hose may be
required.)
Do not smoke while filling engine
fuel tank.
Never fill the engine fuel tank while
the engine is running or hot. Allow
the engine to cool two minutes
before refueling.
Do not refuel indoors or in a poorly
ventilated area.
Always refuel slowly to avoid the
possibility of spilled fuel which may
cause a risk of fire.
Do not operate the unit if gasoline
is spilled. Wipe the air compressor
clean and move it away from the
spill. Avoid creating any ignition
until the gasoline has evaporated.
Do not store the air compressor
near an open flame or any
equipment such as a stove,
furnace water heater, etc. which
utilizes a pilot light or sparking
device.
A spark arrester must be added to
the muffler of this engine if it is to
be used on any forest covered,
brush covered or grass covered
unimproved land. The arrester
must be maintained in effective
working order by the operator.
Never place objects against or on
top of air compressor. Operate air
compressor at least 12 inches
away from any wall or obstruction
that would restrict proper
ventilation.
