a. The air source kit air tank is rated for 200 PSI maximum
working pressure. Do not overfill. Overfilling may result in
death or serious injury.

c. Always wear ANSI approved safety glasses when
operating air tank.
d. Bleed pressure from tank after each use, and before
servicing or adding attachments.

DRAIN TANK OFTEN TO REMOVE CONDENSATE.
FAILURE TO DRAIN TANK WILL ALLOW TANK TO
RUST INTERNALLY.
a. To remove any accumulated condensation inside the tank,
bleed pressure from tank until pressure is approximately
5 PSI to 20 PSI.
b. Drain water from tank by opening the drain cock drain valve.
c. If drain cock is plugged, release all air pressure from tank,
remove drain valve and clean, then reinstall.
d. After condensate has been drained, close the drain cock.

IMPORTANT: Observe air tank Date of Manufacture (stamped
on tank leg). Replace air tank 2 to 5 years from date air tank
was first used, or use the date of manufacture as reference.
Your adherence to air tank draining guidelines will determine
the replacement date of your air tank. RUSTED TANKS CAN
FAIL CAUSING EXPLOSIONS OR FATAL INJURIES. Discard
tank immediately if tank is rusted.

NOTE: When using a safety pressure relief valve, point the
safety pressure relief valve away from your body. Use the pull
ring on the safety relief valve; open the relief valve to vent any
pressure inside the tank before attempting to service tank.
