For storage only
Through normal operation of your air compressor, conndensation water will
accumulate in the tank. To prevent corrosion of the tank from the inside,
condensation must be drained at the end of every workday. Be sure to wear
protective goggles. Relieve the air pressure in the system then open the ball
valve on the bottom of the tank to drain. Under cold conditions it is
especially important to drain the tank after each use to reduce the chance of
problems resulting from the freezing of condensation water.
NOTE: Refer to instructions on how to drain tank (page 12).
Storage
Prior to
storing
Before storing the air compressor compressor:
Test for
leaks
Monthly
Check that all connections are tight. Small leaks in the tank,
hoses,connections or transfer tubes will substantially reduce the air
compressor and tool performance. Spray a small amount of soapy water
around the area of suspected leaks with a spray bottle. If bubbles appear,
repair: replace or reseal the faulty component. Do not over-tighten any
connections.
Check the
valve
Daily
Pull/actiate the safety valve daily to ensure that it is operating properly and
to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.
· Drain tank (page 12).
·
Use an air blow gun to clean all dust and debris from the pressor.
·
Disconnect and wind up the power cord.
·
Clean the ventilation openings on the motor enclosure with a damp cloth.
·
Drain all moisture from the tank.
·
Pull the pressure safety valve to release all pressure from the tank.
·
Cover the entire unit to protect it from moisture and dust.
·
Store the air compressor in a clean and dry location.

In cold weather, store the compressor in a warm building when it is not in
use. This will reduce problems related to starting the motor and the
freezing of water condensation.
