4. Close the tank 1 isolation valve (18).

5.Disconnect the tank 1 inlet hose (25) from the combination valve (8), by sliding back the sleeve of the quick connect fitting and removing the inlet hose.

Note. The inlet hose has been fitted with a special one way valve. On removal of the inlet hose there will be a slight discharge of air.

6.Place the tank 1 inlet hose (25) on the provided clip.

7.Disconnect the rubber support straps (22) by pulling them over the support brackets (23) to release the air tank.

WARNING. Be careful when releasing the straps they do have a tight fit.

8.The tank has now been correctly disconnected from the air compressor unit. You can now move the tank freely

by using the carry handle (20) to lift and move the tank. You can now use the removed tank.

The separated tank has two outlets that you can choose from;

a) the attached inflation hose; or

b)the provided quick connect coupler that you can connect another air hose to. This can be done by sliding back the sleeve of the quick connect coupler and inserting an air hose assembly that is fitted with a Nikko style fittings. Due to the limited supply of air it is recommended that the removable tank is fully charged with air prior to being removed.

Note. While the tank has been removed you can still use the master unit/compressor with only one tank. This can be done by simply reconnecting the master unit/compressor back to the power supply, and turning the unit on at the On/Off switch (2).

CAUTION. When using the master unit/compressor with the top tank removed always check to ensure that the air isolation vale (18) is in the off position.

Installing the air tank:

1.Turn the On/Off switch (2) on the compressor to the off position.

2.Turn the power supply off and disconnect the power cable.

3.Lift the main handle (1) up and away from the portable tank location.

4.Sit the tank down on the support brackets (23).

5.Reconnect the rubber support straps (22) to the support brackets (23).

Note. Grip the rubber straps at the fixed end and stretch evenly over the tank until the straps are connected securely to the support brackets.

WARNING. When extending the rubber straps be careful. If released early they can flick back and hurt you. Make sure that your face is at a safe distance from the rubber straps while they are being stretched.
