RISK OF BURSTING
IT IS NORMAL FOR ELECTRICAL CONTACTS
WITHIN THE MOTOR AND PRESSURE SWITCH TO
SPARK.
IF ELECTRICAL SPARKS FROM COMPRESSOR
COME INTO CONTACT WITH FLAMMABLE
VAPORS, THEY MAY IGNITE, CAUSING FIRE OR
EXPLOSION.
RESTRICTING ANY OF THE COMPRESSOR
VENTILATION OPENINGS WILL CAUSE SERIOUS
OVERHEATING AND COULD CAUSE FIRE.
UNATTENDED OPERATION OF THIS PRODUCT
COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
ALWAYS OPERATE THE COMPRESSOR IN A WELL
VENTILATED AREA FREE OF COMBUSTIBLE
MATERIALS, GASOLINE OR SOLVENT VAPORS.
IF SPRAYING FLAMMABLE MATERIALS, LOCATE
COMPRESSOR AT LEAST 20 FEET AWAY FROM
SPRAY AREA. AN ADDITIONAL LENGTH OF HOSE
MAY BE REQUIRED.
STORE FLAMMABLE MATERIALS IN A SECURE
LOCATION AWAY FROM COMPRESSOR.
NEVER PLACE OBJECTS AGAINST OR ON TOP
OF COMPRESSOR. OPERATE COMPRESSOR IN
AN OPEN AREA AT LEAST 12 INCHES AWAY FROM
ANY WALL OR OBSTRUCTION THAT WOULD
RESTRICT THE FLOW OF FRESH AIR TO THE
VENTILATION OPENINGS.
OPERATE COMPRESSOR IN A CLEAN, DRY, WELL
VENTILATED AREA. DO NOT OPERATE UNIT
INDOORS OR IN ANY CONFINED AREA.

A LTER THE FACTORY SET OPERATING
PRESSURES.
FOR ESSENTIAL CONTROL OF AIR PRESSURE,
YOU MUST INSTALL A PRESSURE REGULATOR
AND PRESSURE GAUGE TO THE AIR OUTLET OF
YOUR COMPRESSOR. FOLLOW THE EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDATION AND
NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE
PRESSURE RATING OF ATTACHMENTS. NEVER
USE COMPRESSOR TO INFLATE SMALL LOW-
PRESSURE OBJECTS SUCH AS CHILDREN’S
TOYS, FOOTBALLS, BASKETBALLS. ETC.
1. FAILURE TO PROPERLY DRAIN CON-
DENSED WATER FROM THE TANK,
