5.Check daily the operation of the safety valve. This check should be performed when the tank contains close to max pressure in the tank.

To check the valve, pressurise the tank, and pull the ring OUTWARDS on the safety valve.

Air should discharge from the valve.

Release the ring of the safety valve. When the ring is released the air discharge must stop.

DO NOT CONTINUE TO USE THE COMPRESSOR IN ANY WAY IF THE SAFETY VALVE DOES NOT WORK AS ABOVE.
