The air compressor
should
be operated
on a dedicated
15 amp circuit.
If
the circuit
does not have 15 free amps available,
a larger circuit
must be
used. Always
use more air hose before utilizing
extension
cords. All exten-
sion cords
used must be 12 gauge
with a maximum
length of 25 ft. The
circuit fuse type must be a time delay. Low voltage
could cause damage
to
the motor.
If the air compressor is in operation, all guards and covers should be
attached or installed correctly. If any guard or cover has been damaged,
do not operate the equipment until the proper personnel has correctly re-
paired the equipment. The power cord should be free of any moving parts,
twisting and/or crimping while in use and while in storage.
There are surfaces
on your air compressor
that while in operation
and
thereafter
can cause serious
burns if touched.
The equipment
should
be
allowed
time to cool before
any maintenance
is attempted.
Items such as
the compressor
pump and the outlet tube
are normally
hot during
and after
operation.
Operation
of the air compressor
should
always
be in a position
that is
stable.
Never use the air compressor
on a rooftop
or elevated
position
that
could allow the unit to fall or be tipped
over. Use additional
air hose for
elevated
jobs.
Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved
safety glasses
with side shields
when
the air compressor
is in use. Turn off the air compressor
and drain the air
tank before performing
any type of maintenance
or disassembly
of the
hoses or fittings.
Never point any nozzle
or sprayer toward
any part of the
body or at other people
or animals.
