Figure 1 - Handle Assembly
1. Place ends of handle around tank,
behind the mounting plate. Align
holes in handle to holes in mounting
plate.
2. Assemble four (4) screws and
washers (from parts package)
through holes in mounting plate
and handle. Secure with lock nuts.
Never use the
handle to lift the
unit completely off the ground. Only
use the handle to lift one end so the
wheels may be used to move the unit.

Since the air compressor and other
components (filters, lubricators, hoses,
etc.) used, make up a high pressure
pumping system, the following safety
precautions must be observed at all
times:
1. Read all manuals included
with this product carefully.
Be thoroughly familiar
with the controls and the
proper use of the equipment.
2. Follow all local electrical and
safety codes as well as in the US,
National Electrical Code (NEC) and
Occupational Safety and Health Act
(OSHA).
3. Only persons well acquainted with
these rules of safe operation should
be allowed to use the compressor.
4. Keep visitors away and NEVER allow
children in the work area.
5. Wear safety glasses and
use hearing protection
when operating the pump
or unit.
6. Do not stand on or use the pump or
unit as a handhold.
7. Before each use, inspect compressed
air system and electrical components
for signs of damage, deterioration,
weakness or leakage. Repair or
replace defective items before using.
8. Check all fasteners at frequent
intervals for proper tightness.
Motors,
electrical
equipment and controls can
cause electrical arcs that will
ignite a flammable gas or
vapor. Never operate or repair the unit
near a flammable gas or vapor. Never
store flammable liquids or gases in the
vicinity of the compressor.
Com-
pressor
parts may be hot even if the
unit is stopped.
9. Keep fingers away from
a running compressor; fast moving
and hot parts will cause injury and/
or burns.
10. If the equipment should start
to abnormally vibrate, STOP
the engine/motor and check
immediately for the cause. Vibration
is generally a warning of trouble.
11. To reduce fire hazard,
keep engine/motor
exterior free of oil,
solvent, or grease.
Never remove or
attempt to adjust
safety valve. Keep safety valve free
from paint and other accumulations.
Never
attempt
to repair or modify a tank!
Welding, drilling or any other
modification will weaken the
tank resulting in damage from rupture
or explosion. Always replace worn or
damaged tanks.
Drain liquid from
tank daily.
12. Tanks rust from moisture build-up,
which weakens the tank. Make
sure to drain tank daily and inspect
periodically for unsafe conditions
such as rust formation and corrosion.
13. Fast moving air will stir up dust
and debris which may be harmful.
Release air slowly when draining
moisture or depressurizing the
compressor system.
SPRAYING PRECAUTIONS
Do not spray
flammable
materials in vicinity of open flame or
near ignition sources including the
compressor unit.
14. Do not smoke when spraying paint,
insecticides, or other flammable
substances.
15. Use a face mask/
respirator when spraying
and spray in a well
ventilated area to prevent
health and fire hazards.
16. Do not direct paint or other sprayed
material at the compressor. Locate
compressor as far away from
the spraying area as possible to
minimize overspray accumulation on
the compressor.
