RISk OF BURSTING
Air Tank: The air tank on your Air Compressor is designed and may be UM
coded [for units with air tanks greater than 6" (152 mm)] 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 thin-
ning of the steel air tank.
•
Modifications or attempted
repairs to the air tank.
•
Unauthorized modifica-
tions to the safety valve or
any other components which
control air tank pressure.
Attachments & accessories:
•
Exceeding the pressure rat-
ing of air tools, spray guns, air
operated accessories, tires,
and other inflatables can cause
them to explode or fly apart, and
could result in serious injury.
Tires
•
Over inflation of tires could result in
serious injury and property damage.

HAZARD
HOW TO PREVENT IT
•
Drain air tank daily or after
each use. If air tank develops
a leak, replace it immediately
with a new air tank or 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 with-
stand specific operating pres-
sures. Never make adjustments
or parts substitutions to alter the
factory set operating pressures.
•
Follow the equipment manufactur-
ers recommendation and never
exceed the maximum allow-
able pressure rating of attach-
ments. Never use compressor
to inflate small low pressure
objects such as children's toys,
footballs, basketballs, etc.
•
Use a tire pressure gauge to check
the tires pressure before each use
and while inflating tires; see the tire
sidewall for the correct tire pressure.
NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and
similar equipment used to inflate tires
can fill small tires similar to these very
rapidly. Adjust pressure regulator on
air supply to no more than the rating
of the tire pressure. Add air in small
increments and frequently use the
tire gauge to prevent over inflation.
