providedbeforeusingth_ equipment,
The air compressorshould be operated on • dedicated 15 amp €lmult. If the circuit does
not have 15 flee _nps available, a larger circuit must be used. Always use more sir
-hose before utilizingextension cords. AMexte_'_lencords used must be 12 gauge wi_
e maxtmum length of 25 P..The circuit fusetype must be e time delay. Low voltage could
cause damage to the motor.

Risk of Moving Part s

If the sit €ompressor Is In operation, ell guards and covers should be attached or
installed correctly, If any guard or cover has been damaged, do not operate the
-equipment until the proper personnel has correctly repaired the aqulpmenL The power
-cord should be flee of any moving ptrts, twistingandlor crimping while in use and while
in ston_ge.

Risk of Burns

There are surfaces on your air compressor that white in operation end thereafter can
-cause serious burns If touched, The equipment should t_e allowed time to cool before
any maintenance is attempted. Iterr_ such _ the compressor pump andthe outlet tube
are normallyhot during and after operttJon.

Risk of Falling

Operation of the air compressor should always be in a position that ts at'J_la. Never use
the air compressor on a rooftop or elevated position that could allow the unit to fell or
-be tipped over. Use additional sit hose for elevated jobs.

Alwayswear ANSI Z87,1 approvedsafety glasseswith side shields when the air
compressoris in use. Turn off the air compressor and drain the air tank before

Risk to Breathing

Avoid using the air compresSOr in conked areas, Always have adequate space
(12 Inshee) on aBsides of the air compressor.Also keep children, pats, and othersout
of the area of operation. This air ¢ompmesor does not provide breathable air for anyone
or any auxikary breathing device, _praying material will always need to be in another
areaaway from the air compressorto not allow Intake air to damage the air compressor
filter,

Risk of
