not be used for a while, it is best to leave drain valve open
until such time as it is to be used. This will allow moisture
to completely drain out and help prevent corrosion on the
inside of tank.
Risk of Fire or Explosion.

such as paints or lacquers. Never spray flammable liquids
in a confined area. Spray area must be well ventilated. Do
not smoke while spraying or spray where spark or flame is
present. Keep compressors as far from the spraying area
as possible, at least 15 feet from the spraying area and all
explosive vapors.

pressure greater than marked maximum pressure of
attachment. Do not use a pressure greater than maximum
rated pressure of compressor.

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition.
When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy
enough to carry the current your product will draw. A wire
gauge size (A.W.G.) of at least 14 is recommended for an
extension cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use the next
heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier
the cord. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage
resulting in loss of power and overheating.
