Important Safety Information (Continued)

Compressor Safety

Never remove or attempt to adjust safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other

accumulations.

Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any

other modification will weaken the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion.Always replace worn or damaged tanks.

◆Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.

Drain liquid from tank daily.

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

Spraying Precautions

Do not spray flammable materials in vicinity of open flame or near

ignition sources including the compressor unit.

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

◆Use a face mask/respirator when spraying and spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire hazards.

◆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.

◆When spraying or cleaning with solvents or toxic chemicals, follow the instructions provided by the chemical manufacturer.

The DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTICE notifications and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that caution is a factor which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator.
