Portable Handheld Air Compressor

General Safety (Cont.)

! WARNING

Motors, electrical equipment and controls can cause electrical arcs

that will ignite a flammable gas or vapor. Never operate or repair in or near a flammable gas or vapor. Never store flammable liquids or gases in the vicinity of the compressor.

 

Always use a sep-

configuration as plug.

Compressor parts may be hot even if the unit is stopped.

9.Keep fingers away from a running compressor; fast moving and hot parts will cause injury and/or burns.

10.If the equipment should start to abnormally vibrate, switch unit OFF

(O) and check immediately for the cause. Vibration is generally a warning of trouble.

11.To reduce fire hazard, keep motor free of oil, solvent, or excessive grease.

12.Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. Release air slowly when draining moisture or depressurizing the compressor system.

Any misuse of unit could cause property or equipment damage and/or personal injury.

Do not leave the

! WARNING compressor unattended while the unit is running.

! WARNING

Never exceed the recommended pressure for any inflatable object. Do

not over inflate objects.

Over inflation could cause property damage and/or personal injury.

Always put the car

! WARNING in park; set the emergency brake; and block the wheels (to stop them from moving) before using the compressor or property damage and/or personal injury could occur.

13.Do not smoke when spraying paint, insecticides, or other flammable substances.

14.Use a face mask/

respirator when spraying and spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire hazards.

15.Do not direct paint or other sprayed material at the compressor. Locate compressor as far away from the spraying area as possible to minimize overspray accumulation on the compressor.

Location

It is extremely important to use the compressor in a clean, well ventilated area where the surrounding air temperature will not be more than 100°F.

WIRING

1.Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source wiring, plug and protector must be rated for at least the amperage and voltage indicated on motor nameplate, and meet all electrical codes for this minimum.

2.Use a slow blow fuse type T or a circuit breaker.

Overheating, short ! CAUTION circuiting and fire

damage will result from inadequate wiring, etc.

NOTE: This compressor can be operated on a 115 volt, 15 amp circuit under the following conditions:

a. Circuit is not heavily loaded.

b. Voltage supply is normal.

c.Extension cords are of the minimum gauge specified in this instruction manual.

d.Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or a 15 amp slow blow fuse type T.

EXTENSION CORDS

NOTICE

To avoid loss of

power and possible

 

overheating, use additional air hose instead of extension cords to reach work area.

1.Use only a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a

3-slot receptacle that will accept plug on product.

2.Make sure extension cord is in good condition, and heavy enough to carry current product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
