HAZARD
RISK OF BURSTING
Air Tank: On February 26, 2002, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
published Release # 02-108 concerning air compressor tank safety:
Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life. Tank life is dependent
upon several factors, some of which include operating conditions, ambient condi-
tions, proper installations, field modifications, and the level of maintenance. The
exact effect of these factors on air receiver life is difficult to predict.
If proper maintenance procedures are not followed, internal corrosion to the
inner wall of the air receiver tank can cause the air tank to unexpectedly rupture
allowing pressurized air to suddenly and forcefully escape, posing risk of injury
to consumers.
Your compressor air tank must be removed from service by the end of the year
shown on your tank warning label.
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank, and result in
a violent air tank explosion:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Failuretoproperlydrain
condensed water from
air tank, causing rust and
thinning of the steel air tank.
• Drainairtankdailyoraftereachuse.
If air tank develops a leak, replace
it immediately with a new air tank
or replace the entire compressor.
• Modificationsorattempted
repairs to the air tank. • Neverdrillinto,weld,ormakeany modifications to the air tank or its
attachments. Never attempt to
repair a damaged or leaking air
tank. Replace with a new air tank.
• Unauthorizedmodifications
to the safety valve or any
other components which
control air tank pressure.
• Theairtankisdesignedtowithstand
specific operating pressures.
Never make adjustments or parts
substitutions to alter the factory
set operating pressures.
Attachments & accessories:
• Exceedingthepressure
rating of air tools, spray guns,
air operated accessories,
tires, and other inflatables
can cause them to explode
or fly apart, and could
result in serious injury.
• Followtheequipmentmanufacturers
recommendation and never exceed
the maximum allowable pressure
rating of attachments. Never use
compressor to inflate small low
pressure objects such as children’s
toys, footballs, basketballs, etc.

• Useatirepressuregaugetocheck
the tires pressure before each use
and while inflating tires; see the tire
sidewall for the correct tire pressure.
NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and similar
equipment used to inflate tires can fill
small tires very rapidly. Adjust pressure
regulator on air supply to no more than
the rating of the tire pressure. Add air
in small increments and frequently use
the tire gauge to prevent over inflation.
HAZARD

See illustration.
3. Inspect the plug and cord before each
use. Do not use if there are signs of damage.
4. If these grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as
to whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked
by a qualified electrician.

Risk of Property Damage. The use of an undersized extension cord
will cause voltage to drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating.
Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of the air hose by
attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach additional lengths of hose as
needed.
VOLTAGE AND CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Refer to the Specification Chart for the voltage and minimum branch circuit require-
ments.
Risk of Opertion. Certain air compressors can be operated on a 15
amp circuit if the following conditions are met.
1. Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National Electrical Code.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs.
3. Extension cords comply with specifications.
4. Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp time delay fuse.
NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only
time delay fuses. Time delay fuses should be marked "D" in Canada and "T"
in the US.
If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the compressor
repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be necessary to operate it from
a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to change the cord set.

Outlet Pressure Gauge: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure
available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the
regulator and is always less than or equal to the tank pressure.
Regulator: Controls the air pressure shown on the outlet pressure gauge. Turn
regulator knob clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease
pressure.
Cooling System (not shown): This compressor contains an advanced design
cooling system. At the heart of this cooling system is an engineered fan. It is
perfectly normal for this fan to blow air through the vent holes in large amounts.
