Use and Care Manual

English
• Use pipe that is the same size as the air tank outlet. Piping that
is too small will restrict the flow of air.
• If piping is over 100’ (30.5m) long, use the next larger size.
• Bury underground lines below the frost line and avoid pockets
where condensation can gather and freeze. Apply pressure
before underground lines are covered to make sure all pipe
joints are free of leaks.
• A flexible coupling is recommended to be installed between
the globe valve/air discharge outlet and main air distribution
line to allow for vibration.
• A separate regulator is recommended to control the air
pressure. Air pressure from the tank is usually too high for
individual air driven tools.
• DO NOT install lubricators between the tank and any spray
equipment, air tool or accessory requiring oil-free filtered air.
• Drain all traps, filters and dirt legs daily.
