SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING!
Compressed air can be dangerous.
Follow these safety instructions carefully.
• NEVER direct a jet of compressed air at people or animals, or spray
paint towards people or animals.
• ALWAYS use appropriate protective equipment, such as Clarke
safety-goggles or glasses, dust masks, ear defenders etc. when
using compressed air tools.
• Air compressors work at high pressure. ALWAYS inspect equipment and
hoses before use, checking for any damage or leaks. Have any
damage properly repaired before using the machine again.
• DO NOT operate the compressor with any guards removed.
• DO NOT adjust or tamper with the safety valve in any way. The
maximum working pressure (116 psi - approximately 8 bar) is clearly
marked on the compressor.
• The compressor will become hot during operation. DO NOT touch the
cylinder head or discharge pipe while the compressor is in use.
• ALWAYS release any pressure from the air hose (by operating the tool
briefly) before disconnecting any hoses or tools.
When paint spraying:
• ALWAYS wear a suitably approved breathing mask when paint
spraying, to protect against inhalation of paint spray or fumes.
An air feed mask may be required when spraying some types of paint.
If in doubt, check the paint manufacturers instructions.
• Make sure there is adequate ventilation. DO NOT spray in confined or
enclosed areas.
• Many paints are flammable. DO NOT smoke while spraying or preparing
paints, or spray near a naked flame or heat source.
