WHAT CAN HAPPEN

HOW TO PREVENT IT

• Failure to properly drain

condensed water from

air tank, causing rust and

thinning of the steel air tank.

• 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.

• Modifications or attempted

repairs to the air tank.

• 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.

• Unauthorized modifications

to the safety valve or any

other components which

control air tank pressure.

• The air tank is designed to withstand

specific operating pressures.

Never make adjustments or parts

substitutions to alter the factory

set operating pressures.

Attachments & accessories:
• 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.

• 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.

Tires:
• Over inflation of tires could

result in serious injury

and property damage.

• Use a tire pressure gauge to check

the tires pressure before each use

and while inflating tires; see the tire

sidewall for the correct tire pressure.

NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and similar

equipment used to inflate tires can fill

small tires very rapidly. Adjust pressure

regulator on air supply to no more than

the rating of the tire pressure. Add air

in small increments and frequently use

the tire gauge to prevent over inflation.
