Important Safety Information (Continued)
Maximum operating pressure is 135 psi for single stage compressors. Do not
operate with pressure switch or pilot valves set higher than 135 psi (single stage).
•
Never attempt to adjust ASME safety valve. Keep safety valve free from paint and other accumulations.
Never attempt to repair or modify a tank! Welding, drilling or any other
modification will weaken the tank resulting in damage from rupture or explosion.
Always replace worn, cracked or damaged tanks.
Drain liquid from tank daily.
•
Tanks rust from moisture build-up, which weakens the tank. Make sure to drain tank regularly and inspect
periodically for unsafe conditions such as rust formation and corrosion.
•
Fast moving air will stir up dust and debris which may be harmful. Release air slowly when draining moisture
or depressurizing the compressor system.
Spraying Precautions
Do not spray flammable materials in vicinity of open flame or near
ignition sources including the compressor unit.
•
Do not smoke when spraying paint, insecticides, or other flammable substances.
•
Use a face mask/respirator when spraying and spray in a well ventilated area to prevent health and fire
hazards.
•
Do not direct paint or other sprayed material at the compressor. Locate compressor as far away from the
spraying area as possible to minimize overspray accumulation on the compressor.
•
When spraying or cleaning with solvents or toxic chemicals, follow the instructions provided by the chemical
manufacturer.
