1. TANK SAFETY VALVE:
This valve prevents damage to the air receiver if a
malfunction in the compressor pump occurs. It is factory pre-set at a limit
specific to your particular model and adjustment. Do not tamper with it. This
will automatically void your warranty.
2. PRESSURE SWITCH:
The air pressure switch is factory pre-set for optimum

Over-pressurizing the air receiver, piping or tank could cause
it to explode or burst. To protect from over-pressurizing, the compressor is
equipped with a factory preset safety valve. Do not remove, make adjustments
to or substitutions for this valve. Perform a test of the valve from time to time:
pull the ring on the valve to make sure that it operates freely. If the valve does
not operate freely, replace it before further use. Never weld to, drill into, or
change the air receiver in any way.
5. TAMPERING:
If any of the components above are found to have been changed
or tampered with, the warranty will be made void. When servicing, we recom
