HOW TO SET UP YOUR UNIT
Location of the Air Compressor
•
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated area.
•
The air compressor should be located at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) away from
the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air.
•
The air compressor pump and shroud are designed to allow for proper cool-
ing. The ventilation openings on the compressor are necessary to maintain
proper operating temperature. Do not place rags or other containers on or
near these openings.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
Risk of Electrical Shock. In the event of a short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape wire for the
electric current. This air compressor must be properly grounded.
The portable air compressor is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with
an appropriate grounding plug (see following illustrations).
1.
The cord set and plug with this unit contains a grounding pin. This plug
MUST be used with a grounded outlet.
IMPORTANT: The outlet being used must be installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
2.
Make sure the outlet being used
has the same configuration as the
grounded plug. DO NOT USE AN
ADAPTER. See Fig. 3.
3.
Inspect the plug and cord before
each use. Do not use if there are
signs of damage.
4.
If these grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if in
doubt as to whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the installa-
tion checked by a qualified electrician.
RISk OF ELECTRICAL SHOCk. IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN
RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCk.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available outlet, a correct
outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified electrician.
ExTENSION CORDS
If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is:
•
a 3wire extension cord that has a 3blade grounding plug, and a 3slot recep-
tacle that will accept the plug on the product
• in good condition
• no longer than 50 feet (15,2 m)
• 16 gauge (AWG) or heavier. (Wire size increases as gauge number decreases.
14, 12, 10 and 8 AWG may also be used. DO NOT USE 18 AWG.)
The use of an undersized extension cord will cause voltage to
drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating. Instead of using
an extension cord, increase the working reach of the air hose by attaching
another length of hose to its end. Attach additional lengths of hose as
needed.
