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speciedonthenameplate
ofthetool.Apowersourcewithavoltagegreaterthanthatspecied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.
Always remove the plug from the mains socket before making any adjustments or maintenance.
• Toreducetheriskofreorexplosion,neversprayammableliquidsinaconned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reorexplosion.
• Always operate the compressor in a well ventilated area. Do not smoke while spraying. Do not
spraywheresparksorames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a󰀨ected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o󰀨thecompressorafteruseandbeforeservicing.Pushtheon/o󰀨knobdown,waitfor
the pressurised air to bleed from the tank from the release valve and then remove the electrical plug
from the power supply.
• 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e󰀨ectiveness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.
• Do not attempt to adjust the pressure switch or the release valve located under the pressure switch
cover.
• Drain the moisture from the tank daily. It will help prevent corrosion.
• Keep the compressor at least 300mm from the nearest wall to ensure adequate ventilation for
cooling purposes.
• Before transporting the compressor make sure that the pressurised air is bled from the tank and
thatthecompressorisrmlysecured.
• Protect the air hose and cordset from damage. Inspect for weak or worn spots regularly and replace
if necessary.
• Avoid using an extension cord with this product. Use additional air hose instead of an extension
cord to prevent power loss and possible damage to the motor. Use of an extension cord voids the
warranty.
• After long working periods external metal parts could be hot.
• Alwayspresstheon/o󰀨buttondowntoswitcho󰀨thecompressorbeforeswitchingo󰀨thepoweror
removing the power plug.
• Afterusingthecompressor,switcho󰀨theon/o󰀨button,disconnectthepowersupplyandusea
blow gun or similar to release the remaining pressure in the tank.
• Do not attempt to remove any part of the machine whilst it is under pressure.
• Do not attempt to adjust/modify the safety valve in any way. The safety valve installed on this air
compressor is designed to automatically release pressure in case of excess pressure build up in
the tank.
• Use safety equipment including safety goggles or shield, ear protection, breathing or respirator
mask and protective clothing.
• Never attempt to remove any part of the compressor whilst the tank is under pressure.
Wear goggles, wear earmu󰀨s, wear a breathing mask
Neverapplytheoutletairofthiscompressordirectlyontoanypartofaperson’sbody.Donotattemptto

AIR COMPRESSOR SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! When using mains-powered tools, basic safety precautions, including
the following, should always be followed to reduce risk of re, electric shock,
personal injury and material damage.
Readthewholemanualcarefullyandmakesureyouknowhowtoswitchthetoolo󰀨inan
emergency, before operating the tool.
Save these instructions and other documents supplied with this tool for future reference.
The electric motor has been designed for 230V and 240V only. Always check that the power supply
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Note: The supply of 230V and 240V on Ozito tools are interchangeable for Australia and New
Zealand.
If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualiedpersonsinordertoavoidahazard.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the
warningsandinstructionsmayresultinelectricshock,reand/orseriousinjury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the
warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
power tool.
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 ammable
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.Unmodied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.
f. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD 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 inuence 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 o󰀨-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power
toolswithyournger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.
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.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and o󰀨. 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
