Attachments & Accessories:
Exceeding the pressure rating of
air tools, spray guns, air operated
accessories, tires, and other
inflatables can cause them to
explode or fly apart, and could
result in serious injury.
Follow the equipment
manufacturers recommendation
and never exceed the maximum
allowable pressure rating of
attachments. Never use unit to
inflate small low pressure objects
such as children’s toys, footballs,
basketballs, etc.
Tires:
Over inflation of tires could
result in serious injury and
property damage.
Use a tire pressure gauge to check
the tires pressure before each
use and while inflating tires; see
the tire sidewall for the correct
tire pressure.
NOTE: Air tanks, units and similar
equipment used to inflate tires can
fill small tires similar to these very
rapidly. Adjust pressure regulator
on air supply to no more than the
rating of the tire pressure. Add air
in small increments and frequently
use the tire gauge to prevent
over inflation.
