J_WARNING: RiSK OF BURSTING
Air Tank: The air tank on your Air Compressor is designed and may
be UM coded (for units with air tanks greater than 6 inch diameter)
according to ASME Section VIII, Div. 1 rules. All pressure vessels
should be inspected once every two years.To find your state pressure
vessels inspector, look under the Division of Labor and Industries in
the government section of a phone book or call 1-800-4-DEWALT for
assistance.
The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank.
and result in a violent air tank explosion:
WHAT CAN HAPPEN HOWTO PREVENT iT
• Failure to properly drain • Drain air tank daily or after
condensed water from each use. If air tank develops

thinning of the steel air tank. with a new air tank or replace
the entire compressor.
• Modifications or attempted - Never drill into. weld. or make
repairs to the air tank. any modifications to the air
tank or its attachments. Never
attempt to repair a damaged or
eaking air tank. Replace with a
new air tank.
Unauthorized modifications • The airtank is designed
to the safety valve or any to withstand specific
other components which operating pressures. Never
control air tank pressure, make adjustments or parts
substitutions to alter the factory
set operating pressures.
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.
Follow the equipment manu-
facturers recommendation
and never exceed the maxi-
mum allowable pressure rat-
ing of attachments. Never use
compressor to inflate small
low pressure objects such
as children's toys, footballs,
basketballs, etc.
Tires:
Over inflation of tires could - Use a tire pressure gauge to
result in serious injury and check the tires pressure before
property damage, each use and while inflating
tires: see the tire sidewall for
the correct tire oressure.
NOTE: Air tanks, compressors and
similar equipment used to inflate
tires can fill small tires similar to
these very rapidly. Adjust pressure
regulator on air supply to no more
than the rating of the tire pressure.
Add air in small increments and
frequently use the tire gauge to
prevent over inflation.
