• Do not refuel indoors or in a poorly ventilated area.
• Always refuel slowly to avoid the possibility of spilled fuel which may cause a risk of re.
• Do not operate the unit if gasoline is spilled. Wipe unit clean and move the unit away from the spill.
Avoid creating any ignition until the gasoline has evaporated.
• Do not store the unit near an open ame or any equipment such as a stove, furnace, water heater, etc.,
which utilizes a pilot light or devices which can create a spark.
Serious injury may occur if any air compressor ventilation openings are restricted, causing the air com-
pressor to overheat and start a re.
• Never place objects against or on top of air compressor. Operate air compressor at least 12 inches
away from any wall or obstruction that would restrict proper ventilation.

monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles.
• Never inhale air from the air compressor either directly or from a breathing device connected to the air
compressor.
Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling engine exhaust.
• This air compressor was designed for outdoor use. Never operate this air compressor in an enclosed
area. Always make certain there is adequate ventilation (fresh outside air) for breathing and combustion.
This will prevent the buildup of dangerous carbon monoxide gases. Beware of poorly ventilated areas,
or areas with inadequate exhaust fans.
Sprayed materials such as paint, paint solvents, paint remover, insecticides, weed killers, etc. contain
harmful vapors and poisons.
