END OF OPERATION/STORAGE
Turn the ON/OFF switch to the OFF (O) position.
Unplug power cord from wall outlet and wrap it to
prevent damage when not in use.
Wearing safety glasses drain tank of air by pulling the
ring on the safety valve. Use other hand to deflect fast
moving air from being directed toward your face.
Drain tank of condensation by opening drain valve on
bottom of tank. Tank pressure should be below 10 psi
when draining tank.
Air hose should be disconnected from compressor and
hung open ends down to allow any moisture to drain.
Compressor and hose should be stored in a cool, dry
place.
WARNING:
If air leaks after the ring has been released, or if the
valve is stuck and cannot be actuated by the ring,
do not use the air compressor until the safety valve
has been replaced. Use of the air compressor in this
condition could result in serious personal injury.
Turn the air compressor on and allow the tank to fill.
The compressor will shut off when the pressure reaches
the preset maximum.
