STORAGE

Before you store the air compressor, make sure you do the following:

1.Review the Maintenance section on the preceding pages and per- form scheduled maintenance as necessary.

2.Drain water from air tank. See To Drain Tank under Maintenance.

Water will condense in the

air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture.

3.Protect the electrical cord and air hose from damage (such as being stepped on or run over).

Wind them loosely around the compressor handle.

4.Store the air compressor in a clean and dry location.
