WHAT CAN HAPPEN
AIR TANK: Air tanks do not have an infinite life and should be inspected once every year to ensure they are still safe
far use.
Attachments & Accessories
Exceeding the pressure rating of air tools, spray guns,
accessories, tires, or any other inflatables can cause them
to explode or fly apart
Electrical Grounding: Failure to provide adequate groun-
ding to the compressor could result in serious injury or
death from electrocution
Your air compressor is powered by electricity. Like any
electrically powered device, if it is not used properly it may
cause electric shock.
Serious injury or death can occur if repairs are attempted
by unauthorized personnel.
Serious injury and property damage can occur from lo-
ose debris being propelled at high speeds from the com-
pressed air stream
