High temperatures are generated by the electric motor
and the pump. To prevent burns or other injuries, DO NOT
touch the compressor while it is running. Allow it to cool
before handling or servicing.
When adjusting from a higher to a lower pressure, turn
the knob counterclockwise past the desired setting,
then turn clockwise to reach the desired pressure.
