RISK TOBREATHING. Airobtained directly f rom thecompressor should never b eused tosupply a irforhuman
consumption. The airstream may contain c arbon m onoxide, toxic vapors, orsolid particles from
tank. B reathing these contaminant's can cause serious i njury o rdeath. Inorder t ouseairproduced

Wash hands after handling.
NOTE: ELECTRICAL WIRING. Refer to the air compressor's serial label for the unit's voltage and amperage requirements. Ensure
that all wiring is done by a licensed electrician, in accordance with the National Electrical code.
Drain the moisture from the tank on a daily basis. A clean, dry tank will help prevent corrosion.
Pull the tank safety valve ring daily to ensure that the valve is functioning properly, and to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.
To provide proper ventilation for cooling, the compressor must be kept a minimum d 12 inches (31 cm) from the nearest wall, in a
welt-ventilated area. Restricting any of the compressor ventilation openings will cause overheating and could cause fire, never place
objects against or on top of compressor.
Fasten the compressor down securely if transporting is necessary. Pressure must be released from the tank before transporting.
Protect the air hose and electric cord from damage and puncture. Inspect them weekly for weak or worn spots, and replace if
necessary.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to rain. Store indoors.
Never operate the compressor if the power cord or plug are damaged. Have the unit serviced at a Sears or other qualified service
center.
CFM: Cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure of air flow. shuts off is called "cut-out" pressure.
PSI: Pounds per square inch; a unit of measure of air pressure.
Cut-in pressure: While the motor is off, air tank pressure drops
as you continue to use your accessory. When the tank pressure
drops to factory set tow pressure point, the motor will restart
automatically. The tow pressure at which the motor automatically
restarts is called "cut-in" pressure.
Well-ventilated: Means of providing fresh air in exchange for
dangerous exhaust or vapors.
Dedicated circuit: An electrical circuit reserved for the exclusive
use of the air compressor.
Cut-out pressure: When an air compressor is turned on and
begins to run, air pressure in the air tank begins to build. It builds
to the factory set high pressure point before the motor
automatically shuts off, protecting your air tank from pressure
higher than its capacity. The high pressure at which the motor
