NIOSH/OSHA respiratory protection
or properly fitting face mask designed
for use with your specific application.

DANGER
: Risk Of
Rursting
Air Tank:
Compressor tank safety:
Air compressor receiver tanks do not
have an infinite life. Tank life is
dependent upon several factors, some
of which include operating conditions,
ambient conditions, proper
installations, field modifications, and
the level of maintenance. The exact
effect of these factors on air receiver
life is difficult to predict.
If proper maintenance procedures are
not followed, internal corrosion to the
inner wall of the air receiver tank can
cause the air tank to unexpectedly
rupture allowing pressurized air to
suddenly and forcefully escape, posing
risk of injury to consumers.
Your compressor air tank must be
removed from service by the end of
the year shown on your tank warning
label.
The following conditions could lead to
a weakening of the air tank, and result
in a violent air tank explosion:
1)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
Failure to
properly drain condensed water from
air tank, causing rust and thinning of
the steel air tank.
HOW TO PREVENT IT:
Drain air tank daily
or after each use. If air tank develops a
leak, replace it immediately with a new
air tank or replace the entire
compressor.
2)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
Modifications or
attempted repairs to the air tank.
HOW TO PREVENT IT:
Never drill into,
weld, or make any modifications to the
air tank or its attachments. Never
attempt to repair a damaged or
leaking air tank. Replace with a new air
tank.
3)
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
Unauthorized
modifications to the safety valve or
any other components which control
air tank pressure.
HOW TO PREVENT IT:
The air tank is
designed to withstand specific
operating pressures. Never make
adjustments or parts substitutions to
alter the factory set operating
pressures.
18.
Attachments&accessories:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN:
Exceeding the
pressure rating of air tools, spray guns,
air operated accessories, tires, and
other inflatables can cause them to
explode or fly apart, and could result
in serious injury.
HOW TO PREVENT IT:
Follow the
equipment manufacturers
recommendation and never exceed
the maximum allowable pressure
rating of attachments. Never use
compressor to inflate small low
pressure objects such as children’s
toys, footballs, basketballs, etc.
