SAFETY
WARNING
AIR TANK WARNING:
Drain liquid from air tank daily, or
after each use, using the drain valve located on the bottom
of the lower air tank. Failure to properly drain liquid from the
tank will cause rust from moisture buildup, which weakens
the tank and could lead to a violent tank explosion.
Periodically inspect the tanks for unsafe conditions such
as corrosion.
Never attempt to repair or make modifications to the tank or its attachments.
Welding, drilling or any other modifications may weaken the tank, which
may result in damage from rupture or explosion. Never remove or attempt
to adjust the pressure switch, safety valve, or other factory set operating
pressures.
