GENERAL MACHINE USE AND CARE

1. Prior to use, all operators should become familiar with the instructions in this

booklet especially the ON/OFF switch for emergency stopping.

2. ALWAYS maintain the compressor with care and keep it clean for best /

safest performance.

3. NEVER use this compressor if any part is damaged. Have it inspected and

repaired by your Clarke dealer.

4. NEVER attempt to modify the air compressor, tank, fittings or attachments in

any way. Doing so will invalidate the guarantee and could result in

personal injury.

5. NEVER abuse the power cable. Never pull on the cable when removing the

plug from the socket, or lift the compressor by the power cable.

6. ONLY use extension leads that are of an appropriate power rating and

suitable for the work environment. Extension leads must have an earth

connection. Inspect the extension lead regularly and replace if damaged.

7. ONLY USE RECOMMENDED PARTS: To avoid the risk of bursting, only hoses

with a rated pressure of 10 bar, or more should be used. Never attempt to

repair damaged hoses.

8. NEVER abuse the compressor by standing on it.

AIRLINE HOSES

1. ALWAYS ensure that equipment or power tools used in conjunction with the

compressor have a safe working pressure exceeding that of the machine.

2. ALWAYS keep the air hose away from any attached power tools and

ensure that the operator is not restricted by the length of the hose.

3. ALWAYS take care when a long air hose is required in the work area as it

presents a trip hazard. Coil the hose away as soon as the job is finished.

4. ALWAYS avoid kinking or trapping the air hose. Always replace faulty hoses

and never attempt a repair if a leak is detected.

5. NEVER abuse hoses or connectors. NEVER carry an air tool by the hose, or

yank it to disconnect from the air supply. Keep hoses away from heat, oil

and sharp edges. Check hoses for leaks or worn condition before use and

ensure that all connections are secure.

6. ALWAYS ensure that the air supply is turned off at the machine outlet and

any air pressure vented from within the compressor and any attached

equipment when disconnecting air hoses or other equipment.
