Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp
circuit breaker or 15 amp time
delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor
is connected to a circuit protect-
ed by fuses, use 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 compres-
sor repeatedly causes interruption
of the power, it may be necessary to
operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is
not necessary to change the cord set.
120/240
DUAL VOLTAGE
MOTOR
This model has a dual voltage motor,
120 and 240 volt. It is wired for 120
volt but can be converted to 240 volt
operation, instructions for connecting
the motor for operation at 240 volt can
be found printed on the label attached
to the side of the motor.

When converting
to 240V operation,
the attached
three-prong
120V cord
assembly must be replaced
with a
three-pronged
240V cord assembly
(K-0080:240V/20
Amp Plug) that
can be purchased through
a Sears
Service Center.
AIR DISTRIBUTION
SYSTEM
iMPORTANT: The regulator assembly
on the unit should be removed and a
flexible coupling should be assembled
to the pipe nipple for a plumbed-in
air distribution system. Follow these
instructions to correctly convert to a
permanent air distribution system.
Risk of bursting.
Plastic or PVC
pipe is not designed
for use with
compressed
air. Regardless
of its
indicated pressure rating, plastic
pipe can burst from air pressure.
Use only metal pipe for air
distribution
lines.
The next figure represents a typical
air distribution system. The following
are tips to remember when setting up
the air compressor's
air distribution
system.
NOTE: Compressed air from oil lube
air compressors will contain water
condensation
and oil mist. Several
drains, traps and filters will be needed
to supply air without water (including
aerosols) or oil to spray equipment,
air
tools and accessories requiring filtered
air. Always read the instructions for the
air tools and accessories being used.
•
Use pipe that is the same size as
the air tank outlet. Piping that is
too small will restrict the flow of
air.
If piping is over 100' (30.5 m) long,
use the next larger size.
Bury underground
lines below
the frost line and avoid pockets
where condensation
can gather
and freeze. Apply pressure before
underground
lines are covered to
make sure all pipe joints are free
of leaks.
A flexible coupling is
recommended
to be installed
between the pipe nipple and main
air distribution line to allow for
vibration.
A separate regulator is
recommended
to control the
air pressure. Air pressure from
the tank is usually to high for
individual air driven tools.
