Accumulator Tank (not included on some models):
Your accumulator tank is equipped with a relief (pop-
off) valve to prevent an over pressure condition in the
tank. This 2 gallon tank is not designed to store air,
but rather to provide the additional volume of com-
pressed air necessary to operate a wide variety of air
tools. When starting your compressor, attach the tool
to the hose, set the pressure adjusting valve at the
required pressure, wait a few moments until the tank
fills with air. You will know the tank is filled when you
hear air bleeding through the pressure adjusting valve.
Depending on the type and size of tool being used,
you will occasionally need to wait for the tank to refill
before continuing. When you are finished or changing
tools, turn the compressor switch off and set the
pressure adjusting valve to 10 PSI and wait for the
tank to discharge completely.
Grasp the handle and lift the air compressor out of the carton. Remove the styrofoam and/or cardboard and
discard.
