My compressor says that the air it "exhales" is bad for the heatlh. How true? BTW, my compressor is not the typical "in can" but the one powered by electricity.

It may mean,DO NOT FILL SCUBA TANKS with the air.It may have oil particles in it.Of course,after going through an airbrush/paint,THOSE fumes can be hazardous.

Compressed air is not to be inhaled ,it can harm you. Its not oxygen! When I bleed my work compressor I walk away from it. I dont want to breathe in that air ..will make you light headed. #:-)
