1 Move
On/Off switch (A) is in the OFF position
.
NOTE:
If finished
using compressor, follow Steps ± - 6.
±. Turn regulator knob (D) counterclockwise until fully closed. Ensure
regulated pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
². Remove hose and accessory.
4. Drain the air tank,

Maintenance
.
Ensure air tank pressure gauge reads 0 PSI (0 kPa).
WARNING:
Risk of bursting.
Drain air tank daily. Water will con-
dense in air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the
air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture.
5. Allow the compressor to cool down.
6. Wipe air compressor clean and store in a safe, non-freezing area.
MAINTENANCE
The following procedures must be followed when maintenance or
service is performed on the air compressor.
1. Ensure
On/Off switch is in the OFF position
.
±. Remove air compressor plug from outlet.
². Drain air tank.
4. Allow air compressor to cool down before starting service.
NOTE:
All compressed air systems contain maintenance parts (e.g.,
oil, filters, separators) that are periodically replaced. These used parts
may contain substances that are regulated and must be disposed of in
accordance with local, state, and federal laws and regulations.
