Riskof FireorExplosion
What could happen:
• Abrasive tools such as sanders and grinders, rotating
tools such as drills, and impact tools such as nailers,
staplers, wrenches, hammers, and reciprocating saws
are capable of generating sparks which could result in
ignition of flammable materials.
• It is normal for the compressor motor and pressure
switch to produce sparks while operating. If sparks
come into contact with vapors from gasoline or other
solvents, they may ignite, causing fire or explosion.
• Exceeding the maximum pressure rating of tools or
accessories could cause an explosion resulting in
serious injury.
How to prevent it:
• Never operate tools near flammable substances such as gasoline,
cleaning solvents, etc.
• Work in a clean, well ventilated area free of combustible materials.
• Never use oxygen, carbondioxide or other bottled gases as a power
source for air tools.
• Use compressedair regulatedto maximumpressure at or below the
ratedpressureof any attachments.
• Never connectto an air source that is capable of exceeding200 psi.
• Alwaysverify priorto usingthetoolthatthe air sourcehasbeen
adjustedto the rated air pressure range.
• Never sprayflammable liquidsin a confinedarea. Do not spraywhere
sparksor flame are present.
• Do notsmoke while spraying.
• Keep compressor as far from spray area as possible.
