STORAGE
aBefore you store the air compressor,
make sure you do the following:
1. Review the "Maintenance" sec-
tion on the preceding pages and
perform scheduled maintenance
as necessary.
2. Set the On/Auto/Off lever to
“OFF”.
3. Turn the regulator counterclock-
wise and set the outlet pressure
to zero.
4. Remove the air tool or accesso-
ry.
5. Pull ring on safety valve allowing
air to bleed from the tank until
tank pressure is approximately
20 psi. Release safety valve ring.
6. Drain water from air tank by
opening drain valve on bottom of
tank.
Water will con-
dense in the air
tank. If not drained, water will cor-
rode and weaken the air tank caus-
ing a risk of air tank rupture and
possible serious personal injury.
7. After the water has been drained,
close the drain or drain valve.
NOTE: If drain valve is plugged,
release all air pressure. The valve
can then be removed, cleaned, and
reinstalled.
8. Protect the electrical cord and air
hose from damage (such as
being stepped on or run over).
Wind them loosely around the
compressor handle. (If so
equipped)
Store the air compressor in a clean
and dry location.
