completely before refitting.

CLEANING & STORAGE
Keep the compressor free of dirt and dust as far as possible. Wipe with a clean
cloth or blow it down with compressed air at low pressure. If cleaning is
required, use a damp cloth and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents as these may be aggressive to the plastic parts.
Always disconnect the hose and any air tools from the compressor before
cleaning or storage. Store the compressor in a dry location. Always store
upright.
