5. Place the (4) washers (supplied)
between the floor and air
compressor feet. If needed, solid
shims may be placed between
the washers and floor to evenly
distribute weight on all four feet.
See next figure.
6. Place the (4) 3/8" lag screws
through the air compressor feet,
washers, shims, and into the
anchors.
7. Torque 3/8" lag screws to 7-10
ft.-lbs.
Wiring Instructions
SHOCK. Improper electrical
grounding can result in electrical
shock. The wiring should be done
by a qualified electrician
A qualified electrician needs to knows
the following before wiring:
1. The amperage rating of the
electrical box should be
adequate. Refer to the
Specification Chart, in the parts
manual, for this information.
2. The supply line should have 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 must be the same
as the motor nameplate voltage plus
or minus 10%. Refer to local codes
for recommended wire sizes, correct
wire size, and maximum wire run;
undersize wire causes high amp draw
and overheating to the motor.
away from hot surfaces such as
manifold assembly, compressor
outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This product should be connected to
a metallic, permanent wiring system,
of an equipment-grounding terminal
or lead on the product.
Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to the Parts Manual for the
voltage and minimum branch circuit
requirements.
Certain air compressors can be
operated on a 15 amp circuit if the
following conditions are met.
1. Voltage supply through branch
circuit is 15 amps.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any
other electrical needs (lights,
appliances, etc.).
3. Circuit is equipped with a 15
amp circuit breaker or 15 amp
time delay fuse. NOTE: If
compressor is connected to a
circuit protected 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
compressor repeatedly causes
interruption of the power, it may be
necessary to operate it from a 20
amp circuit.
Air Distribution System
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.
