HAZARD
The air tank on your Air Compressor is designed and may be UM coded
(for units with air tanks greater than 6" (122 mm) diameter) according to ASME
Section VIII, Div. 1 rules. All pressure vessels should be inspected once every two
years. To find your state pressure vessels inspector, look under the Division of Labor
and Industries in the government section of a phone book .
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank, and result in a
violent air tank explosion:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Failuretoproperlydraincondensed
