Follow the instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Check the air compressor power cord
periodically and if damaged have it replaced by an authorised service facility. Keep handles clean, dry and
free from oil and grease. Ensure that ventilation slots are kept clean and free from dust at all times. Blocked
ventilation slots or air filter can cause overheating and damage to the motor and this will not be covered under
warranty.
Ensure that the air compressor is disconnected from the mains supply when not in use, before servicing,
lubricating, making adjustments or when changing any accessories.
Form the habit of always checking to see that any adjusting keys or wrenches have been removed from the air
compressor or attached air tools before operating.
When using the air compressor inside your house or workshop, general fire precautions should be observed.
As a precaution it is recommended that an expert is consulted on obtaining and using a suitable fire
extinguisher.
Always disconnect your air compressor from the mains power supply before you commence cleaning. Always
ensure that your air compressor has cooled for about one (1) hour, before cleaning and storing. When cleaning
your air compressor use only a damp, soft cloth. NEVER use liquid or solvents of any type.
Before using the air compressor it should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function.
Check for the correct alignment of moving parts ensuring that they do not bind. Check for broken or missing
parts and have them replaced or repaired at an authorised service facility. Check any other condition that may
affect the operation of the air compressor. A guard or any other part of the air compressor that is damaged
should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service facility unless otherwise indicated in this
instruction manual.
Any switch that does not operate correctly must be replaced by an authorised service facility.
DO NOT use the air compressor if the ‘ON / OFF’ switch does not turn the air compressor ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.
If using the air compressor inside your house, protect furnishings and floors with a suitable dust sheet.
Ensure that the start switch is in the ‘OFF’ position before plugging the air compressor into the mains supply.
