    Follow the steps below to assure correct shutdown and storage between uses: 1. NEVER oil this non-lubricated compressor, as damage will result. 2. For long-term storage of the ACS-1200, disconnect the air hose and apply power allowing the compressor to run "open" for at least five minutes. After five minutes remove power and plug/cap outlet to prevent contaminants from entering.
