COMPRESSOR

● Use pipe that is the same size as the air tank outlet. Piping that is too

small will restrict the flow of air.

● If piping is over 100 feet long, use the next larger size.
● Bury underground lines below the frost line and avoid pockets where

condensation can gather and freeze. Apply pressure before underground
lines are covered to make sure all pipe joints are free of leaks.

● A flexible coupling is recommended to be installed between the air

discharge outlet and main air distribution line to allow for vibration.

● A separate regulator is recommended to control the air pressure. Air

pressure from the tank is usually to high for individual air driven tools.
