Expert Advice
- The air delivery test is conducted at sea level (0–10 meters). As altitude increases, air delivery will decrease accordingly.
- Drain your compressor tank daily after use to avoid build-up and contamination.
- Do not run your compressor on electrical extension cords as this will cause a voltage drop which will inevitably cause damage to your machine.
