IMPORTANT SAFETY

INSTRUCTIONS

Safety Messages & Signal Words:

4 Customer Support: 1-866-409-4581

AIR COMPRESSOR

Dust or dust-like particulates caused by

power-sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling or any

other construction-like activities can contain

contaminants that are harmful to breathe.

Always use your air compressor in a well-ventilated

and clean area.

Never breathe the air that comes directly out of the

air compressor or air hose. This air is not suitable for

breathing.

Always wear approved safety equipment. When

performing dust-creating activities, securely wear

properly-fit face masks or respirators.

If you feel ill from breathing while operating your air

compressor, stop and seek medical attention

immediately.

WARNING

RISK TO BREATHING

Air compressor surfaces become hot during

operation.

DO NOT touch hot surfaces, because they can cause

severe burns.

Do not touch the air compressor’s cylinder head.

During operation, the cooling fins of the cylinder

head and delivery pipe become hot.

Allow the air compressor to cool before touching it.

DO NOT place a storage cover on the unit during

operation. Only place a cover on the air compressor

after it has thoroughly cooled down.

FIRE

HOT SURFACE

WARNING

Flying objects can cause injury to the eyes, head and

other parts of the body.

Air-powered equipment and power tools are capable

of propelling items (metal chips, fasteners and

particulates) at high speed into the air and could

result in injury.

Always wear approved head and eye protection.

Never point the air stream at any part of your body,

or at another person or animal.

When operating the air compressor, make sure all

other people and animals maintain a safe distance.

Do not move the air compressor when the air tank is

under pressure.

Never use the air hoses to pull or move the air

compressor.

Keep the air compressor on a flat surface.

WARNING

FLYING OBJECTS

Exercise caution when using pressurized air.

To prevent injury and for your general safety, only

use high-pressure hoses, fittings and couplings

designed for use with air compressors.

Inspect all hoses, fittings and couplings for leaks

and wear. When leaks and wear are detected, stop

use and replace those items immediately. Do not

repair.

Never leave pressurized air in the air tank when

performing maintenance.

Never leave the air compressor unattended with the

power supply in use and the air hose connected.

WARNING

EXPLOSION

Customer Support: 1-866-409-4581

AIR COMPRESSOR

Improper care could lead to the air tank bursting or

exploding.

Drain air tank daily or after each use to prevent

moisture buildup in the air tank.

Rust can weaken the air tank and cause leaks or

bursting. If rust is detected, replace tank

immediately. Do not try to repair the air tank by

welding, drilling or modifying it in any other way.

These modifications can weaken the air tank and

cause a hazardous condition.

If air tank develops a leak, replace the air tank

immediately. Never repair, weld or make

modifications to the air tank or its attachments.

Never make adjustments to the factory-set

pressures.

Never exceed manufacturer's maximum-allowable

pressure rating attachments.

Because of extreme heat, do not use plastic pipe or

lead tin solder joints for a discharge line.

WARNING

EXPLOSION

Use caution to minimize risk of fire or explosion.

It is normal for the air compressor motor and

pressure switch to produce sparks while operating. If

sparks come in contact with vapors from gasoline or

solvents, they may ignite and cause a fire or

explosion.

Abrasive tools such as grinders, drills and other

tools are capable of making sparks that can ignite

flammable materials.

Always operate the air compressor a safe distance

away from flammable items. Use in well-ventilated

areas.

Never exceed the maximum rated pressure.

FIRE

WARNING

EXPLOSION

Check with a quaiified electrician or serviceman when the

grounding instructions are not completely understood, or

when in doubt as to whether the product is properly

grounded.

Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the outlet,

have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

AIR COMPRESSOR

Inspect for Damage

Before using the air compressor, make sure the air tank is not

damaged, inspect all parts for damage, and check that all pipes

are firmly connected.

Do not use the air compressor if any damage is found. If

damaged, have an authorized service center inspect and test the

air compressor to ensure that is working properly.

Save Packaging

IMPORTANT: Save all outside packaging in case you ever need

to return the product for service or repair.

Compressor Location

Use on Flat Surface

For proper operation, the air compressor must be placed on a flat

surface with an incline no greater than 15 degrees.

Maintain a Clear Area

It is very important that the air compressor is positioned so that

there is adequate airflow around the machine. There must be at

least 2 feet of obstacle-free space surrounding and above the air

compressor.

Use in Areas with Clean Air

For proper operation and to maximize the longevity of the air

compressor, it is very important that the air drawn into the air

compressor is clean. The air compressor should not be used in

areas where dust or particulates are in the air. This will damage

the motor and impair proper operation.

IMPORTANT: Always use the air filter, properly installed.

Use caution to minimize risk of fire or explosion.

It is normal for the air compressor motor and

pressure switch to produce sparks while operating. If

sparks come in contact with vapors from gasoline or

solvents, they may ignite and cause a fire or

explosion.

Abrasive tools such as grinders, drills and other

tools are capable of making sparks that can ignite

flammable materials.

Always operate the air compressor a safe distance

away from flammable items. Use in well-ventilated

areas.

Never exceed the maximum rated pressure.

AIR COMPRESSOR

Electrical Power

Electrical Power Requirements

Before using the air compressor, refer to the serial label for voltage

and amperage requirements. Make sure you have a sufficient

electrical supply for supporting the motor's requirements.

Use a dedicated 15 Amp circuit for the best results.

For remote usage a 5500 Watt Running Generator is required

Low voltage and/or an overload circuit can cause the motor's

overload protection system circuit breaker to trip.

Electrical Extension Cords

Inspect all electrical extension cords to ensure that they are free of

damage.

When using an extension cord, use a heavy-duty cord that is no

more than 25 feet long and at least 14 gauge.Use only a 3-wire

extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug.

OPERATING THE AIR

COMPRESSOR

Save this manual for future reference.

Introduction

This air compressor features a compact structure, stable

performance, a high airflow rate, easy operation and maintenance.

Because the air compressor produces no oil in the airflow, it can be

used as an independent air supply machine for situations in which

oil in the airflow is an issue. The motor directly drives the pistons

and is able to function without lubrication for a long period of time.

Assembly

.1. Connect your air supply hose to a 1/4” male industrial quick

connect coupler. Connect the male quick connect coupler to the

female quick connect coupler located on the air compressor

2. Make sure the drainage valve is off and that the pressure switch

is in the OFF position.

3. Ensure that the power supply you are going to use is operating

normally.

4. Insert the power supply cord into the power supply socket.
