2.Modifications or attempted repairs to the tank.

3.Unauthorized modifications to the unloader valve, safety valve, or any other components which control tank pressure.

4.Excessive vibration can weaken the air tank and cause rupture or explosion

ATTACHMENTS & ACCESSORIES: Exceeding the pressure rating of air tools, spray guns, air operated accessories, tires, and other inflatables can cause them to explode or fly apart, and could result in serious injury.

How To Prevent It Drain tank daily or after each use. If tank develops a leak, replace it immediately with a new tank or replace the entire compressor.

Never drill into, weld, or make any modifications to the tank or its attachments.

The tank is designed to withstand specific operating pressures. Never make adjustments or parts substitutions to alter the factory set operating pressures.

For essential control of air pressure, you must install a pressure regulator and pressure gauge to the air outlet (if not equipped) of your compressor. Follow the equipment manufacturers recommendation and never exceed the maximum allowable pressure rating of attachments. Never use compressor to inflate small low pressure objects such as children’s toys, footballs, basketballs, etc.

HAZARD
