Slide the Handle (72) into the two slots on the top of the Tank (70) and secure in place with four Bolts (71). 5. Connect a regulator valve, an inline shut off valve and a 1/4″ NPT air hose to the Quick Coupler (all sold separately). The air hose must be long enough to reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working. Note: An in-line shutoff ball valve is an important safety device because it controls the air supply even if the air hose is ruptured. The shutoff valve should be a ball valve because it can be closed quickly. 6. Depending on the tool which you will be using with this compressor, you may need to incorporate additional components, such as an in-line oiler, a filter, or a dryer (all sold separately), as shown on Figure F on page 8 and Figure G on page 9. Consult your air tool's manual for needed accessories. OPERATION MAINTENANCE Item 61454 For technical questions, please call 1-800-444-3353. Page 7
