air stream may contain carbon monoxide,
toxic vapors, or solid particles from the

solvents, paint remover, insecticides, weed
killers, may contain harmful vapors and
poisons.

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.
Work in an area with good cross
ventilation. Read and follow the safety
instructions provided on the label or safety
data sheets for the materials you are
spraying. Use a NIOSH/ MSHA approved
respirator designed for use with your specific
