Important Safety Information (Continued)
Never operate compressor without a beltguard. This unit can
start automatically without warning. Personal injury or property damage could
occur from contact with moving parts.
• Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that will get caught in the moving parts of the unit.
Compressor parts may be hot even if the unit is stopped.
• Keep fingers away from a running compressor; fast moving and hot parts will cause injury and/or burns.
• If the equipment should start to vibrate abnormally, STOP the engine/motor and check immediately for the
cause. Vibration is generally an indication of trouble.
• For maintenance and repairs, use only products and parts recommended by the manufacturer.
• To reduce fire hazard, keep engine/motor exterior free of oil, solvent, or excessive grease.
• Use only unleaded fuel. Do not refill the fuel tank while the engine is running. Use precautions to prevent fuel
spillage during refills. Be sure the fuel tank cap is securely in place before starting the engine. Clean up any
spilled fuel before starting the engine. Allow engine to cool for at least two minutes before refueling. Do not
add fuel while smoking or if unit is near any sparks or open flames. Do not overfill tank - allow room for fuel to
expand. Always keep nozzle in contact with tank during fueling. Never fuel the unit indoors. Failure to follow
these instructions could result in death or serious injury.
Never mix oil with gasoline for this engine. This is a four cycle engine designed to
run on pure gasoline. Oil is used for engine lubrication purposes only.
An ASME code safety relief valve with a setting no higher than the Maximum
Allowable Working Pressure (MAWP) of the tank MUST be installed in the air lines
or in the tank for this compressor. The ASME safety valve must have sufficient flow and pressure
ratings to protect the pressurized components from bursting. The flow rating can be found in the parts
manual. The safety valve in the intercooler does not provide system protection.
Maximum operating pressure is 175 psi for two-stage compressors. Do not
operate with pressure switch or pilot valves set higher than 175 psi (two-stage).
• Never attempt to adjust ASME safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other accumulations.
• All installation, maintenance, repair and operation of this equipment should be performed by qualified persons
only in accordance with national, state, and local codes.
Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any other
modification will weaken the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion.
Always replace worn, cracked or damaged tanks.
Drain liquid from tank after each use.
• Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect
periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
• Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. Release air slowly when draining moisture
or depressurizing the compressor system.

Spraying Precautions

Do not spray flammable materials in vicinity of open flame or near
ignition sources including the compressor unit.
• Do not smoke when spraying paint, insecticides, or other flammable substances.
• Use a face mask/respirator when spraying and spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire
hazards.
• Do not direct paint or other sprayed material at the compressor. Locate compressor as far away from the
spraying area as possible to minimize overspray accumulation on the compressor.
• When spraying or cleaning with solvents or toxic chemicals, follow the instructions provided by the chemical
manufacturer.
