Electrical Wiring - DeWalt DXCM804 Instruction Manual

ANCHORING OF THE AIR COMPRESSOR
WARNING: Risk of bursting. Excessive vibration can weaken the
air tank and cause an explosion. The compressor must be properly
mounted.
The air compressor MUST be bolted to a level, solid concrete
surface. Use 3/8" lag screws, vibration pads and concrete anchors.
If help is needed anchoring the air compressor consult a licensed
contractor.
1. Place the air compressor on a level, solid concrete surface. Make
sure the concrete is in good condition with no cracks or damage.
2. Mark the surface using the holes in the air compressor feet as a
template.
3. Drill holes in the surface for the concrete anchors. Install concrete
anchors.
4. Line-up holes in surface with holes in air compressor feet.
5. Place the vibration pads (not supplied) between the floor and air
compressor feet, see figure. If needed use shims to level the unit.
6. Place the 3/8" lag screws through the air compressor feet,
vibration pads and into the anchors.
7. Torque 3/8" lag screws to 7-10 ft.-lbs (9.5-13.5 Nm).

Electrical Wiring

WARNING: Improper electrical installation of this product may
void its warranty and your fire insurance. Have circuit wiring
performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electrician who
is familiar with the current national electrical code and any prevailing
local electrical codes.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Improper electrical grounding
can result in electrical shock. The wiring should be done by a
qualified electrician.
A qualified electrician needs to know the following before wiring:
1. If the amperage rating of the electrical box is adequate. Refer
to the Specifications, in the parts manual, for this information.
2. If the supply line has the same electrical characteristics (voltage,
cycle, phase) as the motor. Refer to the motor nameplate, on
side of motor, for this information.
NOTE: The wiring used must be rated for the motor nameplate
voltage, plus or minus 10%. Refer to local codes for recommended
wire sizes, correct wire size, and maximum wire run. Undersized
wire causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor.
NOTE: A circuit breaker is recommended. If the air compressor
is connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, use only time delay
fuses.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Electrical wiring must
be located away from hot surfaces such as manifold assembly,
compressor outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders.
