DUTY CYCLE:
This air compressor pump is capable of running continuously. However, in order to prolong the life
of your air compressor, it is recommended that a 50% to 75% average duty cycle be maintained.
Duty cycle refers to the percentage of time a compressor can safely run within a given amount of
time expressed as a ratio. Example: Compressors are typically rated at a 50% duty cycle, meaning
that the compressor motor can run about 50% of the total time it is being used to supply air to a tool.
During the ON time, the motor is running to pressurize the tank. During the OFF time, the motor is
stopped and the tools are running off on the pressurized air stored in the tank. If your air tools are
draining pressure off of the tank too quickly, the compressor motor must run more than 50% of the
time the compressor is in use. This can lead to overheating and will significantly shorten the life of
the compressor.

SAFETY WARNINGS
READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS BEFORE
USING AIR COMPRESSOR.
GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
Keep work area clean. Messy areas and cluttered workbenches invite personal injury
and/or property damage.
Keep children and visitors away. All children should be kept away from the work
area. DO NOT let children handle the compressor or extension cord. Maintain a safe dis-
tance for any person near the work area.
4

Operating any tools or equipment under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or
medication can cause personal injury to yourself and others.
Wear proper apparel. Remove your jewelry before using air compressor. Do not wear
loose clothing, necklaces, rings, bracelets, or other jewelry, which may get caught in mov-
ing parts. Nonskid footwear and electrically non-conductive gloves are highly suggested
while working. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair.
Protect your eyes. The operation of any air compressor can result in foreign
objects being thrown into the eyes, which can result in severe eye damage.
Always wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z28.1 specifications during air compressor
operation. Eyeglasses are not always safety glasses.
Be responsible for your hearing. Wear hearing protection during extended periods
of operation.
Use the right tool. Use tools properly and for their intended task. Do not force
a small tool to do the job of a heavy-duty tool. Using the right tool to do the right job will
make doing the job safer.
Check damaged parts before use of any air tools or attachments. A guard
or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to ensure that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, mounting, or any other conditions that may affect tool operation.
A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly replaced. See replacement parts
list for additional details.
Avoid unintentional starting. Be sure that your air compressor is in the OFF position
before plugging it into a power cord or electrical receptacle.
Store all maintenance tools away from the immediate area before turning
ON your air compressor.
Do not overreach. Proper footing and balance is a must at all times while using tools.
Unstable support may lead to personal injury. Do not stand on the tool. Serious injury
could result if the tool tips over or you accidentally contact tool.
Never leave the air compressor running unattended. Always turn the power to the OFF
position and do not leave the air compressor until it comes to a complete stop.
When using air accessories, consult the owner’s manual provided by the
manufacturer. The use of improper accessories may cause risk of injury to yourself and
others.

Always make sure the tool is in the OFF position and unplugged from the
electrical receptacle when making adjustments, changing parts, or perform-
ing any maintenance.
Secure work. When possible, the use of clamps or a holding device is much
safer than holding the work piece with your hands.
Keep protective guards in place and in proper working condition.
Maintain tools and equipment with care. They will function better and more safely
when kept clean and in good working condition. Keeping the air compressor clean, dry,
and free of grime will add to its life and performance.
Childproof the workshop. The use of master switches and padlocks is highly recom-
mended. Remove starter keys where applicable.
DRAIN LIQUID FROM AIR TANK DAILY
• Use the drain valve located on the bottom of the lower air tank to drain condensed liquid.
Failure to properly drain liquid from the tank will cause rust from moisture buildup, which
weakens the tank and could lead to a violent tank explosion. Periodically inspect the tanks for
unsafe conditions such as corrosion, cracked welds, and leaks.
• Release air slowly when draining moisture or depressurizing the air compressor. Fast
moving air will stir up dust, dirt and debris that may be harmful.
RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
Avoid dangerous environments. Do not spray combustible/flammable liquid in a confined
area. 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 ft. away from
spraying area and all explosive vapors. Do not use compressor near gasoline or other
flammable materials. Operate the air compressor in a well-ventilated area. Do not direct
paint or other spray material towards the compressor. Read and follow all safety instruc-
tions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator designed for
use with your specific application.
RISK OF INJURY
Do not direct air stream at body. Use eye protection. Compressor starts automatically. Do
not touch MOVING PARTS. Keep guards in place. Compressor does not supply breathable
air.

RISK OF BURSTING
• Do not adjust regulator to result in output pressure greater than marked maximum
pressure of attachment. If a regulator has not been installed, use only attachment rated
at 200 PSI or higher. Do not weld on or repair tank — A DAMAGED TANK MUST
BE REPLACED IMMEDIATELY. Do not operate without proper safety valve in place.
• Never attempt to repair or make modifications to the tank or its attachments. Welding, drilling,
or any other modifications may weaken the tank, which may result in damage from rupture
or explosion. Never remove or attempt to adjust the pressure switch, safety valve, or other
components that control tank pressure. Never substitute parts or attempt to alter the factory
set operating pressures.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK
Disconnect air compressor from power source before servicing. USE PROPERLY
grounded ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS. Do not use in wet or damp locations or expose
to rain. Keep all connections dry and off the ground. Do not allow power cords to come
into contact with water. Do not touch the plug with wet hands. Do not pull on the electri-
cal cord to disconnect from the power outlet. Store air compressor indoors when not in
use. Any electrical wiring or repairs performed on this air compressor should be done by
authorized service personnel in accordance with federal and local electrical codes.
RISK TO BREATHING
• This air compressor is not designed, nor intended for the supply of breathable quality
air. Air produced by this unit may contain carbon monoxide or other toxic vapors. Do
not inhale air from the compressor or from a breathing device connected to it.
• Operate the air compressor in a well-ventilated area. Read and follow all safety instruc-
tions for the material you are spraying. Be sure to use an approved respirator designed
for use with your specific application.
RISK OF BURNS
Touching exposed metal such as the compressor head or exhaust tube can result in
serious burns. Keep hands and fingers away from exposed metal parts on air compressor
during or immediately after operation. Air compressors generate significant heat during
normal operation and will remain hot for some time after use. Do not reach around pro-
tective shrouds or attempt any maintenance until compressor has been allowed to cool.

RISK OF FLYING OBJECTS
Do not direct compressed air stream at people or pets. The powerful compressed air
stream can damage exposed skin and easily propel loose dirt and other small objects at
high-speed, resulting in serious injury. Always wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z28.1
specifications. Use only OSHA approved air blowguns. Never leave a pressurized air
compressor unattended. Shut OFF air compressor and relieve pressure before performing
maintenance or repairs. Do not move the air compressor while the air tank is pressurized.
Never attempt to move the air compressor by pulling on the air hose.
RISK OF FALLING
Portable air compressors can fall from a table, workbench, or roof causing damage to the
compressor and could result in serious injury or death to the operator. Always operate air
compressor in a stable and secure position to prevent accidental movement of the unit.
Never operate air compressor on a roof or other elevated position. Use additional air hose
to reach high locations.
RISK OF PROPERTY DAMAGE WHEN TRANSPORTING COMPRESSOR
Oil can leak or spill and could result in fire or breathing hazard, serious injury or death. Oil leaks
will damage carpet, paint, or other surfaces in vehicles or trailers.
AIR TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES
Do not exceed the pressure rating of any air tools, spray guns, air accessories, or inflat-
ables. Excess pressure can cause them to explode, resulting in serious injury. Follow the
manufacturers recommended pressure settings for all air tools and air accessories.
INSTALLATION AND LOCATION
The compressor must be run with the rubber feet resting on a flat and stable horizontal
surface.
The air compressor must be used in a clean and well-ventilated area. The compressor
requires an unobstructed airflow and must be located a minimum of 20 inches from any
walls or other obstructions that may prevent proper ventilation.

DO NOT place air compressor in an area:
• Where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.
• Where flammable gas vapors or materials may be present.
• Where air temperatures fall below 32ºF or exceed 104ºF.
• Where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.
Serious injury or death may occur if electrical sparks
from motor and pressure switch come in contact with flammable vapors,
combustible dust, gases or other combustible materials. When using the
air compressor for spraying paint, place the air compressor as far away
from the work area as possible, using extra lengths of air hose to extend the
working reach instead of extension cords.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric
shock. If repair or replacement of the cord is necessary, do not connect the
grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with GREEN insulation
with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a three-prong
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 1. A temporary adapt-
er similar to the adapter illustrated in sketch B (See Page 10) may be used to
connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in illustration B when a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter shall be used only until
a properly grounded outlet (Illustration A) is installed by a qualified electrician.
Tab for grounding screw, lug, or similar part extending from the adapter must be
connected to a permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover.
Whenever the adapter is used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.
The use of a GFCI outlet is strongly recommended. The third prong is to
be used to ground the tool and provide protection against electrical shock.
Never remove the third prong.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is
properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. if it will not fit the out-
let, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
