Speedaire Operating Instructions & Parts Manual
Speedaire Gasoline Air
Compressor, Generator
and Welder
Never fill the engine fuel tank
while the engine is running or
hot. Allow the engine to cool
two minutes before refueling. Do
not refuel indoors or in a poorly
ventilated area.
Always refuel slowly to avoid the
possibility of spilled fuel which
may cause a risk of fire.
Do not operate the unit if gasoline
is spilled. Wipe the unit clean and
move it away from the spill. Avoid
creating any ignition until the
gasoline has evaporated.
Do not store the unit near an
open flame or any equipment such
as a stove, furnace, water heater,
etc. which utilizes a pilot light or
sparking device.
A spark arrester must be added to
the muffler of this engine if it is
to be used on any forest covered,
brush covered or grass covered
unimproved land. The arrester
must be maintained in effective
working order by the operator.
Serious injury may occur if any of
the unit's ventilation openings
are restricted, causing the unit to
overheat and start a fire. Never
place objects against or on top of
the unit. Operate the unit at least
12 inches away from any wall or
obstruction that would restrict
proper ventilation.
6. Risk of Bursting
Serious injury or death may occur
from an air tank explosion if air
tanks are not properly maintained.
Drain air tank daily or after each
use to prevent moisture buildup in
the air tank.
If air tank develops a leak, replace
the air tank immediately. Never
repair, weld or make modifications
to the air tank or its attachments.
Use only genuine manufacturer
repair parts for your unit. NEVER
make adjustments to the factory
set pressures.
Serious injury may occur from
the unit malfunction or explod-
ing accessories if incorrect system
components, attachments or ac-
cessories are used. Never exceed
manufacturers maximumallowable
®
pressure rating of attachments.
Because of extreme heat, do not
use plastic pipe or lead tin sol-
dered joints for a discharge line.
Never use the unit to inflate small,
low pressure objects such as toys.
7. Risk of Breathing
Serious injury or death could occur
from inhaling compressed air. The
air stream may contain carbon
monoxide, toxic vapors or solid
particles. Never inhale air from
the unit either directly or from a
breathing device connected to the
unit.
Serious injury or death may occur
from inhaling engine exhaust. This
unit was designed for outdoor
use. Never operate this unit in an
enclosed area. Always make cer-
tain there is adequate ventilation
(fresh outside air) for breathing
and combustion. This will prevent
the buildup of dangerous carbon
monoxide gases. Beware of poorly
ventilated areas, or areas with
inadequate exhaust fans. Sprayed
materials such as paint, solvents,
paint remover, insecticides, weed
killers, etc. contain harmful vapors
and poisons. Operate the unit only
in a well ventilated area. Follow
all safety instructions provided
with the materials you are spray-
ing. Use of a respirator may be
required when working with some
materials.
Welding produces fumes and
gases. Breathing these fumes and
gases can be hazardous to your
health. Keep your head out of the
fumes. Do not breathe the fumes.
Do not weld in locations near
degreasing, cleaning, or spraying
operations. The heat and rays of
the arc can react with vapors to
form highly toxic and irritating
gases.
Do not weld on coated metals,
such as galvanized, lead, or cad-
mium plated steel. The coatings
and any metals containing these
elements can give off toxic fumes
if welded.
8. Risk of Burns
Serious injury could occur from
3
touching exposed metal parts.
These areas can remain hot for
some time after the unit is shut-
down. Never allow any part of
your body or other materials to
make contact with any exposed
metal parts on the unit.
Never allow any part of your body
to contact the engine muffler,
compressor head or adjacent ar-
eas.
9. Risk of Flying Objects
Soft tissue damage can occur from
the compressed air stream. Always
wear safety glasses to shield the
eyes from flying debris.
Never point the air stream at any
part of your body, anyone else or
animals.
Never leave pressurized air in the
unit. Shut off the unit and relieve
pressure when storing or attempt-
ing maintenance.
Serious injury can occur from loose
debris being propelled at a high
speed from the compressed air
stream. Always maintain a safe
distance from people and animals
while operating the unit.
Do not move the unit while air
tank is under pressure. Do not
attempt to move the unit by pull-
ing on the hose.
10. Risk from Moving Parts
Risk of bodily injury from moving
parts. Before performing mainte-
nance, always turn off the unit.
Bleed pressure from the air hose
and disconnect spark plug wire to
prevent engine from starting un-
expectedly. All repairs to the unit
should be made by an Authorized
Service person.
Do not operate without protective
covers/guards. Always turn off the
unit before removing any guard.
Replace damaged covers/guards
before using the unit.
11. Risk from Negligence
Risk of injury from negligent use.
Never allow children or adoles-
cents to operate this unit! Stay
alert-watch what you are doing.
