safety
WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur from normal sparks in
the engine ignition system or engine exhaust/muffler.
Injury or death may occur as a result of improper fueling.
Serious injury may occur if any air compressor
ventilation openings are restricted, causing the air
compressor to overheat and start a fire.
• Always operate air compressor outdoors 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 air
compressor at least 20 feet away from the spray area. (An additional
hose may be required.)
• Do not smoke while filling engine fuel tank.
• 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.
• Always refuel slowly to avoid the possibility of spilled fuel which may
cause a risk of fire.
• Do not operate the unit if gasoline is spilled. Wipe the air compressor
clean and move it away from the spill. Avoid creating any ignition until
the gasoline has evaporated.
• Do not store the air compressor 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.
• Never place objects against or on top of air compressor. Operate air
compressor at least 12 inches away from any wall or obstruction that
would restrict proper ventilation.

safety
WARNING
Serious injury or death may occur from an air tank
explosion if air tanks are not properly maintained.
Serious injury may occur from an air compressor
malfunction or exploding accessories if incorrect system
components, attachments or accessories are used.
Serious injury or death may occur if system safety’s are
not properly maintained.
Serious injury or death may occur from the battery.
• 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 BE repair parts for your air compressor.
• Never make adjustments to the factory set pressures.
• 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 air compressor to inflate small, low pressure objects such
as toys.
• Safety Pressure Relief Valves should never be altered, modified,
removed or made inoperative. If the device fails, replace immediately
with genuine manufacturer replacement part.
• When the battery is being activated, hydrogen and oxygen gases in
the battery are extremely explosive. Keep open sparks and flames
away from the battery at all times, especially when charging the
battery.
• Be certain to disconnect the battery ground terminal before servicing.
When disconnecting the cable from the battery, start with the
negative terminal, and when connecting them start with the positive
cable.
• When charting the battery remove the battery vent plugs.
• Use only a voltmeter or hydrometer to check battery charge.
• DO NOT jump start the battery unless both batteries are of equal
voltage and amperage.

safety
WARNING
Serious injury or death could occur from inhaling gas
engine exhaust which contains carbon monoxide- a
poisonous gas that can kill you. You CAN NOT smell or
see this gas.
Sprayed materials such as paint, paint solvents, paint
remover, insecticides, weed killers, etc. contain harmful
vapors and poisons.
Serious injury or death could occur from inhaling
compressed air. The air stream may contain carbon
monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles.
• Never us a Gasoline Air Compressor in enclosed or partially-enclosed
spaces. Gasoline Air Compressors can produce high levels of carbon
monoxide very quickly. When you use a Gasoline Air Compressor,
remember that you cannot smell or see carbon monoxide. Even if
you can’t smell exhaust fumes, you may still be exposed to carbon
monoxide.
• If you start to feel sick, dizzy or weak while using this unit, get to fresh
air right away. Do not delay. The carbon monoxide from gasoline
engine exhaust can rapidly lead to full incapacitation and death.
• If you experience serious symptoms, get medical attention
immediately. Inform medical staff that carbon monoxide poisoning
is suspected. If you experienced symptoms while indoors, have
someone call the fire department to determine when it is safe to re-
enter the effected area.
• Operate air compressor only in a well ventilated area. Follow all safety
instructions provided with the materials you are spraying. Use of a
respirator may be required when working with some materials.
• Never inhale air from the air compressor either directly or from a
breathing device connected to the air compressor.
WARNING
Serious injury could occur from touching exposed metal
parts. These areas can remain hot for some time after
the air compressor is shutdown.
• Never allow any part of your body or other materials to make contact
with any exposed metal parts on the air compressor.
• Never allow any part of your body to contact the engine muffler or
adjacent areas.

safety
WARNING
Soft tissue damage can occur from the compressed air
stream.
Serious injury can occur from loose debris being
propelled at a high speed from the compressed air
stream.
• Always wear safety glasses to shield the eyes from flying debris.
• Never point the air stream at any part of your body, anyone else or
animals.
• Never leave pressurized air in the air compressor. Shut off air
compressor and relieve pressure when storing or attempting
maintenance.
• Always maintain a safe distance from people and animals while
operating the air compressor.
• Do not move the air compressor while air tank is under pressure. Do
not attempt to move the air compressor by pulling on the hose.
WARNING
Risk of bodily injury from moving parts.
• Before performing maintenance, always turn off air compressor. Bleed
pressure from the air hose and disconnect spark plug wire to prevent
engine from starting unexpectedly. All repairs to the air compressor
should be made by an Authorized Service person.
• Do not operate without protective covers/guards. Always turn off air
compressor before removing any guard. Replace damaged covers/
guards before using the air compressor.
WARNING
Compressed air from the unit may contain hazardous fumes. Air
produced by this compressor is not suitable for breathing purposes.
Always use a respirator when spraying paint or chemicals, or when
sandblasting. Always wear safety glasses or goggles when using
compressed air.

WARNING
Risk of injury from negligent use.
• Never allow children or adolescents to operate this air compressor!
• Stay alert-watch what you are doing. Do not operate the air
compressor when fatigued or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
• Know how to stop the air compressor. Be thoroughly familiar with
controls.
WARNING
Risk of major repair.

prevent air compressor from falling.
• Follow all maintenance instructions listed in this manual.
WARNING
Air Receiver.
• Never weld, drill or change the air receiver in any way.
• Over pressurizing the air receiver could cause personal injury or
material damage. To protect from over pressurizing, a factory pre-set
safety valve is installed.
• Any replacement parts should be purchased with the same
specifications as the original equipment. Please contact the
authorized dealer for replacement parts or specifications.
WARNING
Safety Valve.
• Do not remove, make adjustments to or substitute this valve!
• This valve is factory installed to prevent over pressurizing of the air
receiver. It is factory set at a specific limit for your particular model,
and should never be tampered with.
• Adjustment by user will automatically void the warranty.
CAUTION
The air compressor and motor will get hot while in operation. Never
touch the discharge tubing, motor or compressor pump while in
operation. The compressor operates automatically while the power is
connected and turned on.
