Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator. 4. compressor use and care c. Keep children and bystanders away from an operating compressor. 2. Electrical safety a. To Reduce the Risk of Electric Shock or Injury, Use Indoors Only. b. A qualified electrician must connect the Air Compressor to a 240VAC/60Hz power supply, rated to at least 25 amps. c. Do not expose compressor to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a compressor will increase the risk of electric shock. 3. personal safety a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating this compressor. Do not use this compressor while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating a compressor may result in serious personal injury. b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear ANSI-approved eye protection during setup and use. c. prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source or moving the compressor. Item 62299 b. DIScONNEcT and TAG OUT the compressor’s power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the compressor. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the compressor accidentally. SETUp b. Do not operate the compressor in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Compressor motors produce sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. a. Do not use the compressor if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any compressor that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c. Store an idle compressor out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the compressor or these instructions to operate it. A compressor is dangerous in the hands of untrained users. d. Maintain the compressor. Keep the compressor clean for better and safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Keep dry, clean and free from oil and grease. check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the compressor’s operation. If damaged, have the compressor repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by a poorly maintained compressor. OpERATION a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. e. Use the compressor in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the compressor for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation. 5. Service a. Have your compressor serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the compressor is maintained.

Risk of fire or explosion - do not spray flammable liquid in a confined area or towards a hot surface. Spray area must be well-ventilated. Do not smoke while spraying or spray where spark or flame is present. Arcing parts - keep compressor at least 20 feet away from explosive vapors, such as when spraying with a spray gun. 2. Risk of bursting - do not adjust regulator higher than marked maximum pressure of attachment. 3. Risk of injury - do not direct air stream at people or animals. 4. Do not use to supply breathing air. 5. Keep compressor well-ventilated. Do not cover compressor during use. SETUp 6. Do not leave compressor unattended for an extended period while connected to power source. DIScONNEcT and TAG OUT the compressor’s power source, turn the switch off, and relieve all air pressure after working. 7. Drain Tank daily and after use. Internal rust causes tank failure and explosion. 8. Add correct amount of compressor oil before first use and every use. Operating with low or no oil causes permanent damage and voids warranty. 9. Do not remove the valve cover or adjust internal components. 10. Compressor pump head gets hot during operation. Do not touch it or allow children nearby during or immediately following operation. 11. The use of accessories or attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may result in a risk of injury to persons. 12. All air line components, including hoses, pipe, connectors, filters, etc., must be rated for a minimum working pressure of 150 PSI, or 150% of the maximum system pressure, whichever is greater. 13. Industrial applications must follow OSHA guidelines. 14. Maintain labels and nameplates on the compressor. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replacement. 15. This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children. 16. Operate unit on level surface. Check oil level daily and fill to marked level if needed. 17. People with pacemakers should consult their physician(s) before use. Electromagnetic fields in close proximity to heart pacemaker could cause pacemaker interference or pacemaker failure. OpERATION SAVE THESE INSTRUcTIONS.

SAFETy General Operation 1. Close the Drain Valve (See Figure G). 4. Turn the Power Switch ON. 6. Adjust the Regulator Knob so that the air output is enough to properly power the tool, but the output will not exceed the tool’s maximum air pressure at any time. Turn the knob clockwise to increase the pressure and counter-clockwise to decrease pressure. Adjust the pressure gradually, while checking the air output gauge to set the pressure. 5. Allow the Air Compressor to build up pressure until it cycles off. 7. Make sure the air tool’s throttle or switch is in the OFF position. Connect the air tool to the air hose. Note: At the beginning of the day’s first use of the Air Compressor, check for air leaks by applying soapy water to connections while the Air Compressor is pumping and after pressure cut-out. Look for air bubbles. If air bubbles are present at connections, tighten connections. Do not use the Air Compressor unless all connections are air tight, the extra air leaking out will cause the Air Compressor to operate too often, increasing wear on the Air Compressor. 8. Open the in-line Shutoff Valve. 2. Check for oil leaks and check the oil level (See ″Checking the Oil″ on page 9). 3. Close the in-line Shutoff Valve between the Air Compressor and the air hose. SETUp Note: As long as the Power Switch is ON, the operation of the Air Compressor is automatic, controlled by an internal pressure switch. The Air Compressor will turn on automatically when the air pressure drops to 125 PSI, and will turn off automatically when the air pressure reaches 150 PSI. 9. Use the air tool as needed. 10. After the job is complete, turn the Power Switch OFF. 11. Close the in-line Shutoff Valve. 12. Bleed air from the tool then disconnect the tool. 13. Place a collection pan under the Drain Valve. 14. Open the Drain Valve two or three turns ONLY. When all the pressure and moisture is released, close the Drain Valve. Do not remove the Drain Valve. OpERATION WARNING! TO pREVENT SERIOUS INJURy AND DEATH FROM EXpLOSION: Do not adjust the internal pressure switch. Any change to the automatic pressure levels may cause excess pressure to accumulate, causing a hazardous situation.
