Storage
Pull the relief valve on the ring daily to ensure that it is
operating properly and to clear the valve of any possible
obstuctions.
Check all connections to see if tight. A small leak of any of part
(the tank, hoses, pipe connections or transfer tubes) will reduce
the unit's performance.
Spray a small amount of soapy water around the area of the
suspected leak with a spray bottle. If bubbles appear, repair or
replace the faulty component. Do not over tighten any connections.
Before storing the unit for a long period, use an air blow gun to
clean all dust and debris from the compressor. Disconnect and coil
the power cord up. Pull the pressure relief valve to release all
pressure from the tank. Drain all moisture from the tank. Cover
the entire unit to protect it from moisture and dust.
