E:_te_lsion Cords
Using extension cords is not
recommended. The use of extension
cords will cause voltage to drop
resulting in power loss to the motor
ang overheating.
Attacn extra air hoses at tt/e air outlet
instead of us)rig extension cords.
If ar_ extension cord must be used, be
sure it is;
a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding plug, and a
3-stot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the product
In good condition
no longer than 50 feet
12 gauge (AWG) or Jarger. (WJr_
_lze Jncrsases as gauge number
decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG
may also be used, DO NOT USE
14 OR 16AWG)
Voltage a[_d Circuii; Protection
Refer to the Specification Chart for
the voltage and minimum branch
circuit requirements.
Certain
airoompressor_
can be
operated on a 15 amp circuit if the
following conditions are met.
1. Voltage supply through branch
circuit is 15 crops.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any
other electrical needs (lights,
appliances, etc.).
3. E".xtertsion cords comply with
speciticatlons.
4. Circuit is equipped with a 15
amp circuit breaker or 15 amp
tinle delay ruse. NOTE: tf
compressor is connected to a
circuit protected by fuses, u_e
only time delay fuses. Time delay
fuses should be marked "D" in
Canada and "T" in the US
If any of the above conditions cannot
be met, or if operation of the
compressor repeatedly causes
interruption of the power, it may be
necessary to operate it from a 20
amp circuit. It is not necessary to
