Safety Messages & Signal Words:
DANGER
Danger indicates an immediate hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Warning indicates an potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Caution indicates an potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
NOTICE

to product components or other property.
WARNING
This manual contains important instructions for operating this
product. For your safety, and the safety of others, be sure to read
this manual thoroughly before operating the product.
Failure to properly follow all the instructions and precautions can
cause you and others to be seriously hurt or killed.
WARNING
EXPLOSION
Use caution to minimize risk of fire or explosion.
It is normal for the air compressor motor and pressure switch to
produce sparks while operating. If sparks come in contact with
vapors from gasoline or solvents, they may ignite and cause a fire
or explosion.
Abrasive tools such as grinders, drills and other tools can make
sparks that can ignite flammable materials.
Always operate the air compressor a safe distance away from
flammable items. Use in well-ventilated areas.
Never exceed the maximum rated pressure.

DANGER
There is a danger of electric shock.
Use only undamaged electrical cords.
DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.
DO NOT operate air compressor in wet weather or in wet
conditions.
DO NOT touch air compressor or cords if hands or feet are wet.
Ensure that all cords are free of damage before connecting to the
power supply.
Ensure that you have a sufficient electrical supply for supporting
the requirements of the motor.
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the cord or
plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat
terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current.
This product is equipped with a cord having grounding wire and
appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
the local codes and ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and has
a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in sketch A
(below). Only connect the product to an outlet having the same
configuration as the plug.
Do not use an adapter with this product.

CAUTION
Use caution when using extension cords.
Use 3-wire extension cord which is no more than 25' (7,6 m)
long, at least 14 gauge, and has a 3-blade grounding plug.
Using an excessively long or thin-wired extension cord will cause
severe damage to the motor.
An undersized cord results in a drop in the line voltage and loss
of power and overheating.
When in doubt, use a heavier gauge. The smaller the AWG
rating, the more current the cord can carry.
