Like all power tools, there is danger associated with operating this equipment. Accidents are frequently caused by lack of familiarity or fail- ure to pay attention. Use this machine with respect and caution to lessen the possibility of operator injury. If normal safety precautions are overlooked or ignored, serious personal injury many occur.
When storing your air compressor, fol- low these guidelines:
1.Set the compressor switch lever to OFF.
2.Turn the regulator
3.Remove the air tool or accessory.
4.Pull the safety drain valve ring to bleed excess pressure from tank. The pressure gauge for the tank should read
5.Drain water from the tank by opening the drain valve on the bottom of the tank.
6.Close the drain valve when all the water has been released.
7.Store air compressor in its normal operating position in a cool protected area.
Water will condense in the air com- pressor tank. Water left in the tank can cause the tank to weaken and corrode, increasing the risk of tank rupture
