HOW TO SET UP YOUR
UNIT
Location of the Air Compressor
Locate the air compressor in a clean,
dry and well ventilated area. The air
compressor should be located at
least 12" away from the wall or other
obstructions that will interfere with
the flow of air. The air compressor
pump and shroud are designed to
allow for proper cooling. The
ventilation openings on the
compressor are necessary to
maintain proper operating
temperature. Do not place rags or
other containers on or near these
openings.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF
ELECTRICAL
SHOCK. In the event of a short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. This
air compressor must be properly
grounded.
The portable air compressor is
equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug (see following
illustrations). The plug must be used
with an outlet that has been installed
and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
1.
The cord set and plug with this
unit contains a grounding pin.
This plug MUST be used with a
grounded outlet.
IMPORTANT: The outlet being used
must be installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
2.
Make sure the outlet being used
has the same configuration as
the grounded plug. DO NOT
USE AN ADAPTER. See
illustration.

3. Inspect the plug and cord before
each use. Do not use if there are
signs of damage.
4. If these grounding instructions
are not completely understood,
or if in doubt as to whether the
compressor is properly
grounded, have the installation
checked by a qualified
electrician.
_ IMPROPER
GROUNDING CAN
RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If
it does not fit the available outlet, a
correct outlet should be installed
by a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug
MUST be made by a qualified
electrician.
