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-D WALT for assistance.

The following conditions could lead to a weakening of the air tank,
and result in a violent air tank explosion:
HOW TO PREVENT IT

damage to vehicle from leaks.
Remove compressor from
vehicle immediately upon
arrival at your destination.
Always keep compressor level
and never lie on its side.
WHAT CAN HAPPEN
• Failure to properly drain
condensed water from
air tank, causing rust and
thinning of the steel air tank.
• Modifications or attempted
repairs to the air tank.
• Unauthorized modifications
to the safety valve or any
other components which
control air tank pressure.
Attachments & accessories:

with a new air tank or replace
the entire compressor.
• Never drill into, weld, or make
any modifications to the
air tank or its attachments.
Never attempt to repair a
damaged or leaking air tank.
Replace with a new air tank.
• The air tank is designed
to withstand specific
operating pressures. Never
make adjustments or
parts substitutions to alter
the factory set operating
pressures.
• Follow the equipment
manufacturers
recommendation and never
exceed the maximum
allowable pressure rating
of attachments. Never use
compressor to inflate small
low pressure objects such
as children's toys, footballs,
basketballs, etc.
