English DANGER: Risk of explosion or fire What can happen How to prevent it • It is normal for electrical contacts within the motor and pressure switch to spark. • Always operate the compressor in a well ventilated area free of combustible materials, gasoline, or solvent vapors. • If electrical sparks from compressor come into contact with flammable vapors, they may ignite, causing fire or explosion. • Restricting any of the compressor ventilation openings will cause serious overheating and could cause fire. • If spraying flammable materials, locate compressor at least 20 feet (6.1 m) away from spray area. An additional length of hose may be required. • Store flammable materials in a secure location away from compressor. • Never place objects against or on top of compressor. • Operate compressor in an open area at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from any wall or obstruction that would restrict the flow of fresh air to the ventilation openings. • Operate compressor in a clean, dry well ventilated area. Do not operate unit indoors or in any confined area. • Unattended operation of this product could result in personal injury or property damage. To reduce the risk of fire, do not allow the compressor to operate unattended. • Always remain in attendance with the product when it is operating. • Always turn off and unplug unit when not in use. DANGER: RISK TO BREATHING (Asphyxiation) What can happen • The compressed air directly from your compressor is not safe for breathing. The air stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors, or solid particles from the air tank. Breathing these contaminant's can cause serious injury or death. How to prevent it • Air obtained directly from the compressor should never be used to supply air for human consumption. In order to use air produced by this compressor for breathing, suitable filters and in-line safety equipment must be properly installed. In-line filters and safety equipment used in conjunction with the compressor must be capable of treating air to all applicable local and federal codes prior to human consumption.
