Leave them out. Hook it up to a tank. Turn it on (Mod edit) just a little tiny bit. Watch, listen, and learn.
Notice the HP port. very.....very....small hole. It IS HIGH pressure, but little actual volume of air can actually get through it.
OTOH, the LP port if open can empty a tank in minutes. It is designed to pass huge amounts of air.
Correct...but not a good idea...
A 3000/3442 PSI uncontrolled pressure flow though the first stage...can and will damage soft 1st stage internal components...''O'' rings...seals...thrust washers...diaphragms...etc...
