HAZARD RISK OF BURSTING Air Tank: On February 26, 2002, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission published Release # 02-108 concerning air compressor tank safety: Air compressor receiver tanks do not have an infinite life. Tank life is dependent upon several factors, some of which include operating conditions, ambient condi- tions, proper installations, field modifications, and the level of maintenance. The exact effect of these factors on air receiver life is difficult to predict. If pro

Risk of Property Damage. The use of an undersized extension cord will cause voltage to drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating. Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of the air hose by attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach additional lengths of hose as needed. VOLTAGE AND CIRCUIT PROTECTION Refer to the Specification Chart for the voltage and minimum branch circuit requirements. Risk of Opertion. Certain air compressors can be operate

Check Valve: When the air compressor is operating, the check valve is "open", allowing compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air compressor reaches "cut-out" pressure, the check valve "closes", allowing air pressure to remain inside the air tank. Motor Overload Protector (not shown): The motor has an automatic reset thermal overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the overload protector will shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restar

STORAGE Before you store the air compressor, make sure you do the following: 1. Review the Maintenance section on the preceding pages and perform scheduled maintenance as necessary. 2. Drain water from air tank. See To Drain Tank under Maintenance. Water will condense in the air tank. If not drained, water will corrode and weaken the air tank causing a risk of air tank rupture. 3. Protect the electrical cord and air hose from damage (such as being stepped on or run over). Wind air hose loos
