19. Use proper size and type extension cord. If an extension cord is required, it must be
of the proper size and type to supply the correct current to the compressor without
heating up. Otherwise, the extension cord could melt and catch fire, or cause
electrical damage to the compressor.
20. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a
qualified technician.
21. Keep aware of air hoses. Be careful not to trip over air hoses while working. Check
air connections periodically.
22. Do not operate Spray Gun near open flames, pilot lights, heaters, or any other
heat source. Make sure you have adequate ventilation. Most solvents and paints
are extremely flammable, especially when sprayed. Never smoke cigarettes in the
same room your are working in.
23. Read labels on cleaning solvents and paint coatings. Chlorinated solvents such
as 111-Trichloroethane and Methylene Chloride (also known as methyl-chloride) can
chemically react with aluminum and may explode. Many paint sprayers contain
aluminum. Contact solvent manufacturer or paint supplier if your are in doubt.
24. Paints and solvents may be harmful or fatal if swallowed or inhaled. Always use
a respirator when spraying. Avoid prolonged skin contact with solvents or paints as
they will irritate skin. After contact immediately wash off exposed area with hot, soapy
water.
25. Check all Spray Gun Seals. Before use, make sure the Lid (#42) is fully tightened to
the Cup (#47). Make sure the Retaining Ring (#1) is screwed on past the first
thread, and the Air Inlet (#31) is secure.
Note: Performance of the compressor (if powered by line voltage) may vary depending on
variations in local line voltage. Extension cord usage may also affect tool performance.
Warning: The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual

stood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be
