INTRODUCTION
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Read and understand the manual prior to operating this tool.
Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool
for future reference.
The electric motor has been designed for 12V only. Always check
that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating
plate.
If the cables or air hoses are damaged, it must be replaced by an
electrician or a power tool repairer in order to avoid a hazard.

1. Work area safety
a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to
lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the
risk of electric shock.
d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase
the risk of electric shock.
e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A
moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
b.Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to
power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the
power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and
ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The
term ‘Power Tool’ in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated
(corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool.

7
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the
power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking
into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

This appliance is not intended for use by young or infirm persons unless supervised by
a responsible person to ensure that they can use the appliance safely. Young children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
¥ To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, never spray flammable liquids in a confined area. It is normal
for the compressor motor and pressure switch to produce sparks during use. If sparks come into
contact with petrol vapours or solvents, they may ignite the vapours and cause a fire or explosion.
¥ Always operate the compressor in a well ventilated area. Do not smoke while spraying. Do not spray
where sparks or flames are present. Keep the compressor as far away from the spray area as possible.
¥ The solvents trichloroethane and methylene chloride can chemically react with the aluminium used
in some paint spray guns and form an explosion. If these solvents are used, ensure that only stainless
steel spray equipment is connected. The compressor is not affected by the use of these solvents.
¥ Never directly inhale the compressed air produced by a compressor and do not use it for charging
breathing tanks.
¥ Do not use welding equipment in close proximity to the compressor. Do not weld anything to the air
tank of the compressor: this could dangerously weaken the tank and will void the warranty.
¥ Do not use the compressor outdoors when it is raining or on a wet surface; either situation could
cause an electric shock.
¥ Always shut off the compressor after use and before servicing.
¥ Check the maximum pressure rating of any tools or accessories that you intend using with the
compressor. The output pressure of the air from the compressor must be regulated so that it never
exceeds the rated pressure of the tool or accessory.
¥ To avoid the risk of burns and injury from moving parts, do not operate the compressor with the
safety shield removed. Allow hot parts to cool before handling or servicing.
¥ Be certain to read all the labels on the containers of paint or other materials to be sprayed. Closely
follow all safety instructions. Use a respirator mask if there is a chance that you might otherwise inhale
the spray material. Carefully check the effectiveness of any respirator mask you intend using.
¥ Always wear safety goggles or glasses when using the air compressor. Never point the nozzle of an
accessory towards any part of your body or towards another person.
¥ Keep the compressor at least 300mm from the nearest wall to ensure adequate ventilation for cooling
purposes.
¥ Protect the air hose and cordset from damage. Inspect for weak or worn spots regularly and replace if
necessary.
¥ After long working periods external metal parts could be hot.
¥ Always press the on/off button down to switch off the compressor before switching off the power or
removing the power plug.
¥ After using the compressor, switch off the on/off button, disconnect the power supply.
Wear goggles, wear ear muffs, wear a breathing mask
Never apply the outlet air of this compressor directly on to any part of a persons body. Do not attempt to
block the air outlet with your finger or any part of your body.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual
will be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or
AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch, power
point, receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that
specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater
than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as
damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source
with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.

AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS
injury resulting from such cases of misuse.
The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from
such changes.
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The
following hazards may arise in connection with the tools construction and design:
¥ Damage to the lungs if an effective breathing mask is not worn.
¥ Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are not worn.
¥ Damage to the eyes if effective safety goggles or shield are not worn.
WARNING! In the event that an air line is cut or broken, the air supply must be
turned off at the compressor. A broken air line which is not supported is extremely
dangerous and can whip around very quickly, both with the capability of striking
people and blowing foreign particles into the air.
Do not attempt to catch the air line but immediately keep bystanders well clear,
turn off the compressor at the On/Off Switch, and then remove the hose from the
compressor.
