ring on the safety valve to make sure

All compressed air systems
generate condensate that accumulates
in any drain point (e.g., tanks, filter, after-
coolers, dryers). This condensate con-
tains 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 Auto/Off switch to "Off"
and unplug unit.
2. Pull the regulator knob out and
turn counterclockwise to set the
outlet pressure to zero.
3. Remove the air tool or accessory.
4. Pull ring on safety valve allowing
air to bleed from the tank until
tank pressure is approximately 20
psi. Release safety valve ring.
5. Drain water from air tank by open-
ing drain valve (counter-clockwise)
on bottom of tank.

stored.
 If drain valve is plugged,
release all air pressure. The valve can
then be removed, cleaned, the rein-
stalled.
