ELECTRICAL GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This product should be electrically grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an escape wire for electrical
current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER:
IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF THE GROUNDING PLUG CAN RESULT IN A RISK
OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. If a repair or replacement cord is necessary, do not connect the
grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman,
if the grounding instructions are not completely understood or if there is doubt as to whether
this product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided. If the supplied plug does
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is shipped for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit, and has a grounding plug that
looks like the plug in sketch A. A temporary adapter that looks like the adapter illustrated in
sketches B and C may be used to connect this plug to a 2-pole receptacle as shown in sketch
B, if a properly grounded outlet is not available. The temporary adapter should be used only
until a properly grounded outlet (sketch A) can be installed by a qualified electrician. The
green colored rigid ear, lug, or like extending from the adapter must be connected to a
permanent ground such as a properly grounded outlet box cover. Whenever the adapter is
used, it must be held in place by a metal screw.

The motor of this compressor has a thermal overload protector in the motor winding. If the
motor should overheat, the overload protector will shut the motor off. When the temperature
returns to normal, the motor will restart automatically.
NOTICE! Do not stop the compressor by pulling out the plug. Use only the Auto/Off switch,
which operates a pressure relief valve on the compressor. If the compressor is plugged in
with the switch in the "Auto" position, the compressor may have trouble restarting against
the high pressure which could cause excessive heat build up and could damage the motor.
Safety Valve:
This compressor is equipped with a safety valve that is set to avoid over-pressurization of the
air tanks. This valve is factory pre-set at 140 PSI and will not function unless tank pressure
reaches this pressure. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ADJUST OR ELIMINATE THIS SAFETY DEVICE.
ANY ADJUSTMENTS TO THIS VALVE COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. If this device
requires service or maintenance, see an Authorized BOSTITCH Service Center.
