GENERAL SAFETY RULES Additional safety protection will be required in some environments. For example, the working area may include exposure to a noise level which can lead to hearing damage. The employer and user must ensure that any necessary hearing protection is provided and used by the operator and others in the work area. Some environments will require the use of head protection equipment. When required, the employer and user must ensure that head protection marked to comply with ANSI Z89.1 is used.
GENERAL SAFETY RULES Never point any tool toward yourself or others. Keep the exterior of the air compressor dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Never use brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, or any strong solvents to clean the unit. Following this rule will reduce the risk of deterioration of the enclosure plastic.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES Always follow all safety rules recommended by the manufacturer of your tool, in addition to all safety rules for the air compressor. Following these rules will reduce the risk of serious personal injury. Never direct a jet of compressed air toward people or animals. Take care not to blow dust and dirt towards yourself or others. Following this rule will reduce the risk of serious injury. Protect your lungs. Wear a face or dust mask if the operation is dusty.

SPEED AND WIRING The no-load speed of the electric motor varies by model and specification. The motor speed is not constant and decreases under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s horsepower rating. A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three tools.
