Description

 Air compressor units are intended 

to provide compressed air to power 

pneumatic tools and operate spray 

guns. The pumps supplied are oil 

lubricated. A small amount of oil 

carryover is present in the compressed 

air stream. Applications requiring air 

free of oil or water should have the 

appropriate filter installed. The air 

compressor unit must be mounted 

as described in the instructions on 

a solid floor. Any other use of these 

units will void the warranty and the 

manufacturer will not be responsible 

for problems or damages resulting from 

such misuse.

Unpacking

 After unpacking the unit, inspect 

carefully for any damage that may 

have occurred during transit. Make sure 

to tighten fittings, bolts, etc., before 

putting unit into service.

Do not operate unit 

   if damaged during 

shipping, handling or use. Damage may 

result in bursting and cause injury or 

property damage.

  You 

can 

 create 

dust when you cut, sand, drill 

or grind materials such as 

wood, paint, metal, concrete, 

cement, or other masonry. This dust 

often contains chemicals known to 

cause cancer, birth defects, or other 

reproductive harm. Wear protective 

gear.
