Precautions

• Drain the moisture from the tank daily to help prevent corrosion.

• Pull the pressure relief valve ring daily to ensure proper function and clear possible
  obstructions

• To provide proper ventilation for cooling, the compressor must be kept at least 12
  inches (31cm) from the nearest wall, in a well-ventilated area.

• Fasten the compressor securely and release tank pressure before transporting.

• Protect the air hose and electronic cord from damage and puncture. Inspect
  them weekly for weak or worn spots, and replace if necessary.

• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not expose to rain. Store indoors.

• Never operate the compressor if the power cord or plug are damaged. Take
  the equipment to nearest authorized service center and a specialist technician
  will replace it.

WARNING!

 The power cord on this product contains 

lead, a chemical, known to the state of California to cause
