. Safety drain valve.

There are two ways to release air from the
compressor tank other than through your
regulator and the use of air tools:

—The drain valve
—The safety drain valve

To release air by using the drain valve, you
simply turn the release nut to allow air to
flow out of the tank. The drain valve is
shown in

Figure 5

. The drain valve is also

used to drain condensation that builds up
in the tank.

The safety valve automatically releases
pressure if the tank reaches 130 PSI.

To manually release the air in the tank
by using the safety drain valve:

1.

Locate the safety drain valve on the
tank. The drain valve is shown below
in

Figure 8

2.

Pull the metal ring on top of the safe-
ty valve to bleed pressure from the
tank. Note—

The ring is preset to

release air if the tank exceeds its
maximum pressure.
DO NOT try to
adjust the safety valves pressure set-
ting!

Note—

The air tool that you attach to the air

compressor should have a preferred PSI
operating level. Set the pressure to be
delivered to the tool according to the tools
preferred level.
Understand the duty
cycle of the air compressor.
