• Exposure to chemicals in dust cre-
ated by power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other con-
struction activities may be harmful.
• Sprayed materials such as paint,
paint solvents, paint remover, insec-
ticides, weed killers, may contain
harmful vapors and poisons.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Oil can leak or spill and could
result in fire or breathing hazard;
serious injury or death can result. oil
leaks will damage carpet, paint or
other surfaces in vehicles or trailers.
Air Tank: The air tank on your Air Compressor is designed and may be UM coded
(for units with air tanks greater than 6 inch diameter) according to ASME Section
VIII, Div. 1 rules. All pressure vessels should be inspected once every two years.
To find your state pressure vessels inspector, look under the Division of Labor and
Industries in the government section of a phone book.
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank, and result in a
violent air tank explosion:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Failure to properly drain condensed
water from air tank, causing rust and
thinning of the steel air tank.
• Modifications or attempted repairs to
the air tank.
• Unauthorized modifications to the
safety valve or any other components
which control air tank pressure.
• Excessive vibration can weaken the
air tank of a stationary compressor
and cause an explosion.

to protect against damage to vehicle
from leaks. Remove compressor
from vehicle immediately upon
arrival at your destination.
HOW TO PREVENT IT
• Drain air tank daily or after each use.
If air tank develops a leak, replace it

replace the entire compressor.
• Never drill into, weld, or make any
modifications to the air tank or its
attachments. Never attempt to
repair a damaged or leaking air tank.
Replace with a new air tank.
• The air tank is designed to withstand
specific operating pressures.
Never make adjustments or parts
substitutions to alter the factory set
operating pressures.
• The compressor must be properly
mounted, see "Anchoring" under
Installation.
