Risk of unsafe operation. Unit cycles automatically when

power is on. When performing maintenance, you may be exposed to voltage

sources, compressed air, or moving parts. Personal injuries can occur. Before

performing any maintenance or repair, disconnect power source from the

compressor and bleed off all air pressure.
NOTE:
See Operation section for the location of controls.

TO CHECk SAFETY VALVE

Risk of Bursting. If the safety valve does not work properly,

over-pressurization may occur, causing air tank rupture or an explosion.

Risk from Flying Objects. Always wear certified safety

equipment: ANSI Z87.1 eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) with side shields.
Before starting compressor, pull the ring on the safety valve to make sure that the

safety valve operates freely. If the valve is stuck or does not operate smoothly, it

must be replaced with the same type of valve.

TO DRAIN TANk

Risk of Unsafe Operation. Air tanks contain high pressure air.

Keep face and other body parts away from outlet of drain. Use ANSI Z87.1

eye protection (CAN/CSA Z94.3) when draining as debris can be kicked up

into face.

Risk from noise. Use ear protection [ANSI S12.6 (S3.19) hear-

ing protection] as air flow noise is loud when draining.
NOTE:
All compressed air systems generate condensate that accumulates in

any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter, aftercoolers, dryers). This condensate contains

lubricating oil and/or substances which may be regulated and must be disposed of in

accordance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
1. Set the On/Off switch to "Off".
2. Turn the regulator knob counterclockwise to set the outlet pressure to zero.
3. Remove the air tool or accessory.
