RISK OF INJURY. Pull the pressure relief valve ring daily to ensure that the valve is function-
ing properly, and to clear the valve of any possible obstructions.
RISK OF BURSTING. Rust can weaken the tank. Drain the condensed water from the tank
after each use to reduce rusting. If a leak is detected in the tank, replace the tank immedi-
ately. Do not weld, drill or modify the air tank. Welding or modifications on the air tank can
severely impair tank strength and cause an extremely hazardous condition. Welding or modi-
fying the tank in any manner will void the warranty.

taining lead. Wash hands after use. Keep out of reach of children.

RISK TO BREATHING/INHALATION HAZARD. Do not spray acids, corrosive materials,
toxic chemicals, fertilizers or pesticides. Using these materials may result in death or seri-
ous injury.
RISK TO BREATHING. Never directly inhale the compressed air produced by this tank.
It is not suitable for breathing purposes.
RISK OF INJURY. Never point or spray toward yourself or anyone else or serious skin
or eye injury could occur.
RISK OF EYE INJURY. Always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved safety goggles. Air powered
equipment and power tools are capable of propelling materials such as metal chips, sawdust,
and other debris at high speed which could result in serious eye injury.
RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Check for damaged air hose. Keep the air hose
away from heat, oil, and sharp edges. Inspect the air hose periodically and replace it if it
becomes worn or damaged.
RISK OF BURSTING AND/OR INJURY. Use compressed air regulated to a maximum
pressure at or below the rated pressure of any attachments. Exceeding the maximum
pressure rating of tools or accessories could cause an explosion resulting in serious injury.
RISK OF INJURY. Use only accessories that are designed for the specific tool. Use of
an accessory not intended for use with the specific tool, increases the risk of injury to per-
sons.
