RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION
Serious injury or death may occur from normal sparks in the engine igni-
tion system or engine exhaust/muffler. Always operate the unit in a well
ventilated area free of flammable vapors, combustible dust, gases or other
combustible materials.
DO NOT SMOKE if spraying flammable material. Locate the unit at least 20
feet away from the spray area. (An additional hose may be required.)
Never fill the engine fuel tank while the engine is running or hot. Allow the
engine to cool two minutes before refueling. Do not refuel indoors or in a
poorly ventilated area.
Do not operate the unit if gasoline is spilled. Wipe the unit clean and move
it away from the spill. Avoid creating any ignition until the gasoline has
evaporated.
Do not store the unit near an open flame or any equipment such as a stove,
furnace, water heater, etc. which utilizes a pilot light or sparking device.
A spark arrester must be added to the muffler of this engine if it is to be
used on any forest covered, brush covered or grass covered unimproved
land. The arrester must be maintained in effective working order by the
operator.
Serious injury may occur if any of the unit's ventilation openings are restrict-
ed, causing the unit to overheat and start a fire. Never place objects against
or on top of the unit. Operate the unit at least 12 inches away from any wall
or obstruction that would restrict proper ventilation.
RISK OF BURSTING
Serious injury or death may occur from an air tank explosion if air tanks are
not properly maintained. Drain air tank daily or after each use to prevent
moisture buildup in the air tank.
If air tank develops a leak, replace the air tank immediately. Never repair,
weld or make modifications to the air tank or its attachments. Use only
genuine manufacturer repair parts for your unit. Never make adjustments to
the factory set pressures.
Serious injury may occur from the unit malfunction or exploding accesso-
ries if incorrect system components, attachments or accessories are used.
Never exceed manufacturers maximum allowable pressure rating of
attachments.
Because of extreme heat, do not use plastic pipe or lead tin soldered joints
for a discharge line.
Never use the unit to inflate small, low pressure objects such as toys.
