FOR YOUR SAFETY
GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS
• Ensure that all individuals using the compressor have read and fully
understand the Operating Instructions supplied and are suitably trained
• Stop the engine and ensure the pressure is expelled from the air receiver
before carrying out any maintenance.
• Ensure that there is adequate ventilation when spraying flammable
materials e.g. cellulose paint, and keep clear of any possible source of
ignition.
• Protect yourself. Think carefully about any potential hazards which may
be created by using the air compressor and use the appropriate
protection. e.g. Goggles will protect your eyes from flying particles. Face
masks will protect you against paint spray and/or fumes. Ear defenders
will prevent hearing damage caused by load noise.
• Consult paint manufacturers instructions for safety and usage, before
spraying
• Ensure that the air supply is turned off at the machine outlet and all
pressurised air from the machine and other equipment attached to it, is
expelled BEFORE disconnecting air hoses or other equipment.
• Make sure that children and animals are kept well away from the
compressor and any equipment attached to it.
• Ensure that any equipment or tool used in conjunction with your
compressor, has a safety working pressure exceeding that of the
machine.
DO NOT
• Direct a jet of air at people or animals, and NEVER discharge
compressed air against the skin. Compressed air CAN BE dangerous!
WARNING: AS WITH ALL MACHINERY, THERE ARE CERTAIN HAZARDS
INVOLVED WITH THEIR OPERATION AND USE. EXERCISING RESPECT AND
CAUTION WILL CONSIDERABLY LESSEN THE RISK OF PERSONAL INJURY.
HOWEVER, IF NORMAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE OVERLOOKED, OR
IGNORED, PERSONAL INJURY TO THE OPERATOR, OR DAMAGE TO
PROPERTY MAY RESULT. IT IS IN YOUR OWN INTEREST TO READ AND PAY
ATTENTION TO THE FOLLOWING RULES:

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com
• Leave pressure in the receiver overnight, or when transporting.
• Adjust, or tamper with the safety valves. The maximum pressure is factory
set, and clearly marked on the machine.
• Operate in wet or damp conditions. Keep the machine dry at all times.
Similarly, a clean atmosphere will ensure efficient operation. Do not use
in dusty or otherwise dirty locations.
• Touch the machine until it has cooled down...some of the metal parts
can become quite hot during operation.
• Operate your compressor with any guards removed.
FIRE PREVENTION
ALWAYS
• Switch the engine OFF when refuelling.
• Refuel away from any source of heat.
• Refuel in a well ventilated area.
DO NOT
• Overfill the tank, fill to the level specified.
• Smoke whilst refuelling and avoid smoking or using a naked flame near
the compressor.
• Start the engine if there is spilled fuel. Any spillage must be wiped clean
and the compressor allowed to dry before attempting to start the
engine.
EXHAUST GAS PRECAUTIONS
ALWAYS
• Make sure that there is adequate ventilation when using the
compressor.
• Position the compressor so that the exhaust is pointed away from people
or animals.
DO NOT
• Use the compressor indoors or in an enclosed area. (i.e. in a warehouse,
tunnel, well, hold etc.)
WARNING: EXHAUST FUMES CAN BE FATAL

condensate to drain completely, then close the drain cock.
2. To ease starting, ensure there is
no pressure in the pump outlet
manifold by opening the Bleed
valve.
3. Connect the air hose to the air
outlet.
4. Connect your air tool to the air
hose.
• Make sure that the air outlet
tap is closed
5. Start the engine in accordance with the instructions contained in the
engine service manual, If this is the first time you are using the compressor,
allow it to run for 10 minutes.
6. Close the bleed valve fully.
• Pressure will build up in the receiver and eventually the air governor will
operate so that the engine runs off load.
• The pressure registered on the pressure guage should be 100psi.
7. Use your air tool as prescribed in its user guide.
• When the pressure has dropped by approximatley 20psi the compressor
will start up again.
