GENERAL INFORMATION

ON RECEIPT INSPECTION

CFM: Cubic feet per minute.

SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a

unit of measure of air delivery.

PSIG: Pounds per square inch gauge; a

unit of measure of pressure.

CUT-IN PRESSURE: While the motor is off,

air tank pressure drops as you continue to

use your accessory or air tool. When the

tank pressure drops to a certain level the

motor will restart automatically re-started is

called "cut-in pressure".

CUT-OUT PRESSURE: When you turn on

your air compressor, it begins to run, air

pressure in the air tank begins to build. It

builds to a certain pressure before the motor

automatically shuts off - protecting your air

tank from pressure higher than its design

rating. The pressure at which the motor

shuts off is called "cut-out pressure".

All Makita manufactured air compressors are recommended to be operated on not more than a

50% duty cycle. This means an air compressor that pumps air more than 50% of one hour is

considered misuse because the air compressor is undersized for the required air demand.

This air compressor requires oil. Now you can enjoy all the benefits of having an oil lubricated

professional air compressor. When oil is changed regularly, it will give you long, trouble-free life.

Your air compressor can be used for operating paint spray guns, air tools, caulking guns, grease

guns, air brushes, sandblaster, inflating tires or spraying weed killers, insecticides, etc. An air

pressure regulator is supplied for these applications.

Separate air transformers which combine the functions of air regulation and/or moisture and dirt

removal should be used where applicable.

DAMAGE: Each air compressor outfit is carefully tested and checked before shipment. With

improper handling, damage may result in transit and cause problems with compressor operation.

Immediately upon arrival, check equipment for both concealed and visible damages to avoid

expenses being incurred to correct such problems. This should be done regardless of any visible

signs of damage to the shipping container. If this
