Assembly
The air hose is supplied loose to
prevent damage during transit. Use
9/16" open end wrench to attach

to be sure the valve moves freely.
1. Take portable tank to a source of
clean, dry, compressed air (ie. full
service gas station, truck stop etc.
Some modern convenience stations
do not have sufficient pressure to
fill the tank). The recommended fill
pressure is between 85 and 125 psi.
2. Press chuck from air source onto
filler valve located on the side of
the brass manifold (See Figure 1).
Fill tank to a maximum of 125 psi as
indicated on pressure gauge. The
safety relief valve is preset to 135
psi to prevent overfilling.

rusting. Failure to do so will weaken
the tank and may result in injury or
property damage due to tank bursting
or rupture.
Draining Instructions:
1. Remove hose.
2. Fill tank with 5 psi - 10 psi of air.
3. Hold tank upside down with
manifold at lowest point. Make
sure air outlet is pointed away from
any people.
4. Fully open air shut-off valve.
5. Allow all air and moisture to fully
drain.
6. Close shut-off valve and reconnect
hose. Use PTFE thread seal tape on
threaded connection.
