nOTE: The amount of water drained from the tank after
each use will depend on the time of use and the amount of
humidity in the operating environment. If no water comes
out of the drain valve, the valve may be clogged. If the valve
is clogged, release all air pressure from tank. The valve can
then be removed, cleaned and reinstalled.
