Air Tank: The following
conditions could lead to a weakening
of the tank, and result
in a violent tank explosion and could cause property
damage or serious
injury.
What Could Happen
Failure to properly
drain condensed
water from tank, causing rust and
thinning of the steel tank.
Modifications
or attempted
repairs to
the tank.
Unauthorized
modifications
to the
unloader valve, safety valve, or any
other components
which control tank
pressure.
Excessive vibration
can weaken
the
air tank and cause rupture or
explosion
ATTACHMENTS
& ACCESSORIES:
Exceeding the pressure
rating 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.
How To Prevent
It
Drain tank daily or after each use. If
tank develops a leak, replace it
immediately
with a new tank or replace
the entire compressor.
Never drill into, weld, or make any
modifications
to the tank or its
attachments.
The tank is designed to withstand
specific
operating
pressures. Never make
adjustments
or parts substitutions
to
alter the factory
set operating
pressures.
For essential control of air pressure, you
must install a pressure
regulator
and
pressure gauge to the air outlet
(if not
equipped)
of your compressor.
Follow the
equipment manufacturers
recommendation
and never exceed the
maximum allowable
pressure rating of
attachments.
Never use compressor
to
inflate small low pressure objects
such
as children's
toys, footballs,
basketballs,
etc.
