ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS MUST BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN
SERIOUS INJURY! ALL ADJUSTMENTS OR REPAIRS MUST BE DONE WITH THE COMPRESSOR DISCONNECTED FROM THE
POWER SOURCE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY!
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING: YOUR MACHINE MUST BE CONNECTED TO A 110-
120V, 15-AMP CIRCUIT BREAKER. FAILURE TO CONNECT IN
THIS WAY CAN RESULT IN INJURY FROM SHOCK OR FIRE.
GROUNDING
This machine must be grounded. If it should malfunction or break-
down, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric
current, to reduce the risk of electric shock. This machine is equipped
with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and grounding
plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is prop-
erly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
Your machine must be properly grounded. Not all outlets are
properly grounded. If you are not sure if your outlet is properly
grounded, have it checked by a qualified electrician.
WARNING: TO MAINTAIN PROPER GROUNDING, DO NOT
REMOVE OR ALTER THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER.
WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED, THIS MACHINE CAN
CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PARTICULARLY WHEN USED IN
DAMP LOCATIONS. TO AVOID SHOCK OR FIRE, IF THE POWER
CORD IS WORN OR DAMAGED IN ANY WAY, HAVE IT REPLACED
IMMEDIATELY.
110-120V OPERATION
As received from the factory, your machine is ready to run for 110-
120V operation. This machine is intended for use on a circuit that has
an outlet and a plug which looks like the one illustrated in Fig.1.
WARNING: DO NOT USE A TWO-PRONG ADAPTOR FOR THEY
ARE NOT IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL CODES AND
ORDINANCES. NEVER USE IN CANADA.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some loss of power. Use the
following table to determine the minimum wire size (A.W.G-American
Wire Gauge) extension cord. Use only 3-wire extension cords which
have 3-prong grounding type plugs and 3-hole receptacles which
accept the tool's plug.

ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
WARNING
For circuits that are further away from the electrical circuit box, the wire
size must be increased proportionately in order to deliver ample
voltage to the motor. Refer to Fig.2 for wire length and size.
