pressed air can be extremely dangerous. Make sure the
air current does not whirl up any dust, stones or other
foreign bodies. Be also sure that the air does escape
in a safe way.
• In order to reduce the risk of fire or explosions, never
spray inflammable fluids in an enclosed room. It is
normal that sparks escape from the motor during ope-
ration. When these sparks get in touch with gasoline
vapours or inflammable liquids, they can ignite and
cause fire or explosions.
• Always operate the compressor in a well vented room.
Do not smoke during spraying. Do not spray in the pre-
sence of sparks or flames. Keep the compressor as far
as possible away from the spraying place.
• The liquids trichlorethane and methylenchloride can
cause a chemical reaction with aluminium that is used
in some paint spray cartridges and can cause an explo-
sion. If these liquids are used, make sure the spraying
is only done with spraying bins made of stainless steel.
The compressor is not impaired by these liquids.
• Never inhale directly the compressed air produced by
the compressor. Do not use the compressed air for fil-
ling breathing tanks.
• Do not use any welding equipment near the compressor.
Do not weld anything to the air tank of the compressor:
This could dangerously weaken the tank and would ren-
der the warranty invalid.
• Do not work with the compressor in the open air while
it is raining, or on a wet base. Any of these situations
could cause an electric shock.
• Always switch off the compressor after use and be-
fore doing any maintenance work. Press the ON/OFF
button and wait until the compressed air has escaped
from the tank via the drain valve. Then pull the power
supply plug.
• Check the maximum admissible pressure of all devices
used with the compressor. The output pressure on the
compressor must be set in such a way that it never ex-
ceeds the prescribed pressure of devices or accessories.
• In order to reduce the risk of injury from moving parts,
never operate the compressor without the guard fitted.
Let hot components cool down before touching them.
• Read all labels and notes on the paint tank or on other
spray materials. Carefully observe all safety instruc-
tions. Wear a breathing mask when there is a risk of
inhaling spray materials. Carefully check the function
of the breathing mask before putting it on.
• Always wear goggles when handling the compressor.
Never direct the nozzle of an accessory towards your
body or towards another person.
• Do not try to adjust the pressure switch or the drain
valve underneath the pressure switch cover.
• Remove daily the liquid from the tank in order to avo-
id corrosion.
• Pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure it works well.
• Keep the compressor at least 300 mm away from the
wall in order to ensure sufficient venting for the cooling.
• Before you transport the compressor, drain the com-
pressed air from the tank and secure the machine safely.
• Protect the air hose and the cable set from damage.
Regularly examine the components for weak and worn
spots, and replace them in case of need.
• After a long period of work, the outer metal parts can
get hot.
• Press the ON/OFF switch to switch off the compres-
sor. Only then cut the mains supply or pull the power
supply plug.
