6 Operator’s Manual

CARBON MONOXIDE - POISONOUS GAS

Use unit outdoors, away from open windows, vents, or

doors.

Unit exhaust contains carbon monoxide - a poisonous gas that

can kill you. You CAN NOT smell or see this gas.

Never use the unit in enclosed or partially-enclosed spaces. The

unit can produce high levels of carbon monoxide very quickly. When

you use this unit, 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 the unit, get to

fresh air RIGHT AWAY. DO NOT DELAY. The carbon monoxide from

the unit 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 re department to determine when it is safe to

re-enter the building.

NEVER operate the unit in an explosive atmosphere, near

combustible materials or where ventilation is not sufcient to carry

away exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes can cause serious injury

or death.

NEVER use the unit indoors, including in homes, garages,

basements, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially-enclosed

areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and windows or using

fans will not prevent carbon monoxide build-up in the home.

Follow the instructions that come with your unit. Locate the unit

outdoors and away from doors, windows, and vents that could allow

the carbon monoxide gas to come indoors.

ONLY run unit outdoors and away from air intakes.

NEVER run unit inside homes, garages, sheds, or other semi-

enclosed spaces. These spaces can trap poisonous gases EVEN

IF you run a fan or open doors and windows.

If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using the unit, shut if

off and get fresh air RIGHT AWAY. See a doctor. You may have

carbon monoxide poisoning.

Install battery-operated carbon monoxide alarms or plug-in carbon

monoxide alarms with battery back-up in your home, according to

the manufacturer’s installation instructions. The carbon monoxide

alarms should be certied to the requirements of the latest safety

standards for carbon monoxide alarms. (UL 2034, IAS 6-96, or

CSA 6.19.01).

Test your carbon monoxide alarm frequently and replace dead

batteries.

Operator’s Manual 7

SAFETY WARNING WHEN REFUELING

Injury or death may occur as a result of improper fueling. Do not smoke

while lling engine fuel tank.

Always refuel slowly to avoid the possibility of spilled fuel which may

cause a risk of re.

Gasoline is extremely ammable and its vapors can explode if ignited.

Observe all safety regulations for the safe handling of fuel. Handle

fuel in safety containers. If the container does not have a spout, use a

funnel.

Do not overll the fuel tank, leave room for the fuel to expand.

Fill the tank only on an area of bare ground. While fueling the tank,

keep heat, sparks and open ame away. Carefully clean up any spilled

fuel before starting engine.

Always ll fuel tank in an area with plenty of ventilation to avoid

inhaling dangerous fumes.

NEVER store fuel for your unit in the home. Gasoline, propane, kerosene,

and other ammable liquids should be stored outside of living areas in

properly-labeled, non-glass safety containers. Do not store them near a

fuel-burning appliance, such as a natural gas water heater in a garage. If

the fuel is spilled or the container is not sealed properly, invisible vapors

from the fuel can travel along the ground and can be ignited by the

appliance’s pilot light or by arcs from electric switches in the appliance.

8 Operator’s Manual

ELECTRICAL HAZARDS

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,

grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock.

DANGER - IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT-

GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN A RISK OF

ELECTROCUTION. CHECK WITH A QUALIFIED

ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON IF YOU ARE IN

DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE UNIT IS PROPERLY

GROUNDED.

This unit is equipped with a grounding terminal for your protection.

Always complete the ground path from the unit to an external ground

source as instructed in the section labeled “Grounding Instructions” in

the Preparation section of this manual.

The unit is a potential source of electrical shock if not kept dry. Keep

the unit dry and do not use in rain or wet conditions. To protect from

moisture, operate it on a dry surface under an open, canopy-like

structure. Dry your hands if wet before touching the unit.

Plug appliances directly into the unit. Or, use a heavy duty, outdoor-

rated extension cord that is rated (in watts or amps) at least equal to

the sum of the connected appliance loads. Check that the entire cord

is free of cuts or tears and that the plug has all three prongs, especially

a grounding pin.

NEVER try to power the house wiring by plugging the unit into a

wall outlet, a practice known as “back feeding”. This is an extremely

dangerous practice that presents an electrocution risk to utility workers

and neighbors served by the same utility transformer. It also bypasses

some of the built-in household circuit protection devices.

If you must connect the unit to the house wiring to power appliances,

have a qualified electrician install the appropriate equipment in

accordance with local electrical codes. Or, check with your utility

company to see if it can install an appropriate power transfer switch.

For power outages, permanently installed stationary units are better

suited for providing backup power to the home. Even a properly

connected portable unit can become overloaded. This may result in

overheating or stressing the unit components, possibly leading to a

unit failure.

Operator’s Manual 9

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 modications 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 accessories

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 inate small, low pressure objects such as toys.

RISK OF FIRE OR EXPLOSION

Serious injury or death may occur from normal sparks in the engine

ignition system or engine exhaust/mufer. Always operate the unit in a

well ventilated area free of ammable vapors, combustible dust, gases

or other combustible materials.

DO NOT SMOKE if spraying ammable material. Locate the unit at

least 20 feet away from the spray area. (An additional hose may be

required.)

Never ll 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 ame 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 mufer 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

restricted, causing the unit to overheat and start a re. 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.

10 Operator’s Manual

RISK OF BREATHING

Serious injury or death could occur from inhaling compressed air. The air

stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles. Never

inhale air from the unit either directly or from a breathing device connected

to the unit.

Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling engine exhaust. This unit

was designed for outdoor use. Never operate this unit in an enclosed

area. Always make certain there is adequate ventilation (fresh outside air)

for breathing and combustion. This will prevent the buildup of dangerous

carbon monoxide gases. Beware of poorly ventilated areas, or areas with

inadequate exhaust fans.

Sprayed materials such as paint, solvents, paint remover, insecticides,

weed killers, etc. contain harmful vapors and poisons. Operate the unit

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.

RISK OF BURNS

Serious injury could occur from touching exposed metal parts. These areas

can remain hot for some time after the unit is shutdown. Never allow any

part of your body or other materials to make contact with any exposed metal

parts on the unit.

Never allow any part of your body to contact the engine mufer, compressor

head or adjacent areas.

Operator’s Manual 11

RISK OF FLYING OBJECTS

Soft tissue damage can occur from the compressed air stream. Always wear

safety glasses to shield the eyes from ying debris.

Never point the air stream at any part of your body, anyone else or

animals.

Never leave pressurized air in the unit. Shut off the unit and relieve pressure

when storing or attempting maintenance.

Serious injury can occur from loose debris being propelled at a high speed

from the compressed air stream. Always maintain a safe distance from

people and animals while operating the unit.

Do not move the unit while air tank is under pressure. Do not attempt to

move the unit by pulling on the hose.

RISK FROM MOVING PARTS

Risk of bodily injury from moving parts. Before performing maintenance,

always turn off the unit. Bleed pressure from the air hose and disconnect

spark plug wire (for gasoline engines), or remove the negative wire

from the battery post (for Diesel engines) to prevent engine from starting

unexpectedly. All repairs to the unit should be made by an Authorized

Service person.

Do not operate without protective covers/guards. Always turn off the unit

before removing any guard. Replace damaged covers/guards before using

the unit.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product must be grounded. If it should malfunction or breakdown,

grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock.

DANGER: IMPROPER CONNECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT -

GROUNDING CONDUCTOR CAN RESULT IN

A RISK OF ELECTROCUTION. CHECK WITH

A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN OR SERVICE PERSON

IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHETHER THE UNIT

IS PROPERLY GROUNDED.

The screw and ground terminal on the frame must always be used

to connect the unit to a suitable ground source. The ground path

should be made with #8 size wire. Connect the terminal of the

ground wire between the star washers and screw then tighten the

screw fully. Connect the other end of the wire securely to a suitable

ground source.

The National Electric Code contains several practical ways in which to

establish a good ground source. Examples given below illustrate a few

of the ways in which a good ground source may be established.

A metal underground water pipe in direct contact with the earth

for at least 10 feet can be used as a grounding source. If a pipe

is unavailable, an 8 foot length of pipe or rod may be used as the

ground source. The pipe should be 3/4 inch trade size or larger and

the outer surface must be noncorrosive. If a steel or iron rod is used

it should be at least 5/8 inch diameter and if a nonferrous rod is used

it should be at least 1/2 inch diameter and be listed as material for

grounding. Drive the rod or pipe to a depth of 8 feet. If a rock bottom

is encountered less than 4 feet down, bury the rod or pipe in a trench.

All electrical tools and appliances operated from this unit, must be

properly grounded by use of a third wire or be “Double Insulated”.

It is recommended to:

1. Use electrical devices with 3 prong power cords.

2. Use an extension cord with a 3 hole receptacle and a 3 prong

plug at the opposite ends to ensure continuity of the ground

protection from the unit to appliance.

Mi-T-M strongly recommend that all applicable federal, state and

local regulations relating to grounding specications be checked

and followed.

LINE TRANSFER SWITCH:

If this unit is used for standby service, it must have a transfer switch

between the utility power service and the unit. The transfer switch

not only prevents the utility power from feeding into the unit, but also

prevents the unit from feeding out into the utility company’s lines.

This is intended to protect the serviceman who may be working on

a damaged line.

THIS INSTALLATION MUST BE DONE BY A LICENSED

ELECTRICIAN AND ALL LOCAL CODES MUST BE

FOLLOWED.

A minimum of 86 octane fuel is recommended for use with this air

compressor. Do not mix oil with gasoline.

Use of clean, fresh, lead free gasoline is recommended. Leaded

gasoline may be used if lead free is not available. Do not use

gasoline containing methanol or alcohol.

For Diesel units use low or ultra-low sulfer fuels only. Read engine

manual for recommended fuels.

Refer to the engine manual for all necessary maintenance and

adjustments.

20 Operator’s Manual

HIGH ALTITUDE

At high altitude, the standard carburetor air/fuel mixture will

be too rich. Performance will decrease, and fuel consumption

will increase. A very rich mixture will also foul the spark plug

on gasoline engines and cause hard starting. Operation at an

altitude that differs from that at which this engine was certied,

for extended periods of time, may increase emissions.

High altitude performance can be improved by specific

modications to the carburetor. If you always operate your

unit at altitudes above 5,000 feet (1,500 meters), have your

dealer perform this carburetor modication. This engine, when

operated at high altitude with the carburetor modications

for high altitude use, will meet each emission standard

throughout its useful life.

Even with carburetor modification, engine horsepower

will decrease about 3.5% for each 1,000-foot (300-meter)

increase in altitude. The effect of altitude on horsepower will

be greater than this if no carburetor modication is made.

NOTE: When the carburetor has been modied for high

altitude operation, the air/fuel mixture will be too lean

for low altitude use. Operation at altitudes below 5,000

feet (1,500 meters) with a modied carburetor may

cause the engine to overheat and result in serious

engine damage.

For use at low altitudes, have your servicing

dealer return the carburetor to original factory

specications.
