Important Safety Information (Continued)
Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any other modification will
weaken the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion. Always replace worn, cracked
or damaged tanks.
Drain liquid from tank daily.
•
Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and
inspect periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
•
Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. Release air slowly when draining
moisture or depressurizing the compressor system.
Spraying Precautions
Do not spray flammable materials in vicinity of open flame or near ignition sources including
the compressor unit.
•
Do not smoke when spraying paint, insecticides, or other flammable substances.
•
Use a face mask/respirator when spraying and spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire
hazards.
•
Do not direct paint or other sprayed material at the compressor. Locate compressor as far away from
the spraying area as possible to minimize overspray accumulation on the compressor.
