for thermal protection (See Figure 4).
NOTE: 120 volt, 15 amp units can be
operated on a 120 volt 15 amp cilcuit
under the following conditions:
1 No other electrical appliances or
lights are connected to the same
branch circuit.
2 Voltage supply is normal.
3 Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp
cilcuit bleaker ol a 15 amp slow
blow ruse type T (For Canada use
Type D).
If the above conditions cannot be met
or if nuisance tripping of the current
protection device occurs, it may be
necessary to operate the compressor
from a 120 volt 20 amp circuit. Some
models convelt to 240 volt opelation,
see DUAL VOLTAGE MOTOR.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1 This product is for use on a nominal
120 or 240 volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in Fig 5. Make sure the
product is connected to an outlet
having the same conRgur ation as the
plug.This product must be grounded
In the event of an electric short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical
shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is
equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances
Improper use of grounding
plug can result in a risk of
electrical shock. Do not use
grounding adapter.

2 If repail ol leplacement of the cord
or plug is necessaly, do not connect
the grounding wire to either flat
blade terminal The wire with
insulation having an outel surface
that is gleen with or without yellow
stlipes is the glounding wire
3 Check with a qualified electrician ol
sel viceman if the grounding instructions
ale not completely undelstood, or if in
doubt as to whether the ploduct is
properly grounded. Do not nlodify the
plug plovided; if it will not fit the outlet,
have the ploper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician
PLUGS AND RECEPTACLES
1 If the plug on the electrical cord of
the unit is unfamiliar to you or will
not fit your particular receptacle,
Figure 5 will help you understand
why by illustrating the different
plugs and the voltages they are to
be used with
2 Make sure that the product is
connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug.
3 The receptacles must be connected
to cilcuits rated to cally at least the
voltage and amperages shown.
4 NEVER have a receptacle replaced
with one of a higher amperage
before determining the change can
be made according to all electlical
codes affecting your particular area
The installation should be made by
a qualified electrician. If the
products must be reconnected for
use on different types or circuits,
the re-connecDon should be made
by qualified personnel
DUAL VOLTAGE MOTORS (SOME
MODELS)
I NOTICE I Tbegr°undingplug
must be changed to
convert unit for dual voltage.
Dual voltage motors may be connected
for eithel 120 volts or 240 volts. By
comparing the plug on the cord with
the receptacles shown below, you can
determine for which voltage your
compressor is factory wired. Also check
motor decal to change from low
voltage to high voltage
All wiring must be
I_WARNINGI
completed by a
qualified electrician. Discotlnect from
power source before changing any
wiring.
[_,WARNING]
Wh....... rting
to an alternate
voltage, be sure the green ground wire
of the cord connects to the ground pin
of the plug and to the metal body of
the pressure switch.
ADDITIONAL HARDWARE NEEDED
Purchase hose, regulator and shutoff
valve that has a minimum rating or 150
PSI and exceeds the maximum working
plessure of the compl essol
OIL DRAIN EXTENSION
Some models include an oil drain
extension and cap (found with the owner's
manual), imtaii the oil drain extension and
cap before adding oil to the pump. To
avoid oil leaks, it is highly recommended
to apply Teflon" tape or paste type sealant
to the threads on each end of the oil drain
