Your new compressor outfit can be used for operating paint
sprayers, air tools, grease guns, air brushes, caulking guns,

Each air compressor outfit is carefully checked before shipment.
With improper handling, damage may result in transit and cause

such problems. This should be done regardless of any visible
signs of damage to the shipping container.
