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 build-
up, 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 at-
tachments. 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.
