16. Handle compressor correctly
Operate the compressor according to the instructions provided herein. Never allow the compressor to be operated by children, individuals unfa-
miliar with its operation or unauthorized personnel.
17. Keep all screws, bolts and covers tightly in place
Keep all screws, bolts, and plates tightly mounted. Check their conditions periodically.
18. Keep motor air vent clean
The motor air vent must be kept clean so that air can freely ow at all times. Check for dust build-up frequently.
19. Operate compressor at the rated voltage
Operate the compressor at voltages specied on their nameplates. If using the compressor at a higher voltage than the rated voltage, it will result
in abnormally fast motor revolution and may damage the unit and burn out the motor.
20. Never use a compressor which is defective or operating abnormally
If the compressor appears to be operating unusually, making strange noises, or otherwise appears defective, stop using it immediately and ar-
range for repairs by a authorized service centre.
21. Do not wipe plastic parts with solvent
Solvents such as gasoline, thinner, benzine, carbon tetrachloride, and alcohol may damage and crack plastic parts. Do not wipe them with such
solvents. Wipe plastic parts with a soft cloth lightly dampened with soapy water and dry thoroughly.
22. Use only genuine replacement parts
Replacement parts not original may void your warranty and can lead to malfunction and resulting injuries. Genuine parts are available from your
dealer.
23. Do not modify the compressor
Do not modify the compressor. Always contact the authorized service centre any repairs. Unauthorized modication may not only impair the
compressor performance but may also result in accident or injury to repair personnel who do not have the required knowledge and technical
expertise to perform the repair operations correctly.
24. Turn off the pressure switch when the compressor is not used
When the compressor is not used, turn the knob of the pressure switch off, disconnect it from the power source and open the drain cock to dis-
charge the compressed air from the air tank.
25. Never touch hot surface
To reduce the risk of burns, do not touch tubes, heads, cylinder and motors.
26. Do not direct air stream at body
Risk of injury, do not direct air stream at persons or animals.
27. Drain tank
Drain tank daily or after 4 hours of use. Open drain tting and tilt compressor to empty accumulated water.
28. Do not stop compressor by pulling out the plug

6. ELECTRICAL SAFETY GUIDELINES
6.1 Grounding Instructions
This compressor should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The compressor is equipped with a three-conductor
cord and three-prong grounding type plug to t the proper grounding type receptacle.
The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal.
If your units is for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch (A) in gure on the right. An adapter, see sketches
(B) and (C), is available for connecting sketch (A) type plugs to two prong receptacles. The green coloured rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from
the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box.
6.2 Extension Cords
Use only extension cords that have three-prong grounding type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the compressor’s plug.
Replace or repair any damaged cords. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one
heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An under sized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and over-
heating. The table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and name plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.
The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
WARNING
Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this compressor with a damaged or frayed electrical cord or extension cord. Inspect all electrical cords
regularly. Never use in near water or in any environment where electric shock is possible.
