• The air compressor pump and shroud are designed
to allow for proper cooling. 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 (Fig. A)

WARNING: 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

grounding pin . This plug MUST be used with a
3
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. Refer to Fig. A.
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 installation checked by a
qualified electrician.

DANGER: 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 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding
plug, and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on
the product.
• in good condition.
• no longer than 50' (15.2 m).
• 14 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge
number decreases. 12 AWG and 10 AWG may also be
used. DO NOT USE 16 OR 18 AWG.).
NOTICE: Risk of Property Damage. 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.

Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to Specifications for the voltage and minimum
branch circuit requirements.

WARNING: Risk of Overheating. Certain air
compressors can be operated on a 15 amp circuit if
the following conditions are met.
• Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the
National Electrical Code.
• Circuit is not used to supply any other
electrical needs.
• Extension cords comply with specifications.
• 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. It is not necessary to change the cord set.
OPERATION

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before making any adjustments or
removing/installing attachments or accessories.
An accidental start-up can cause injury.

WARNING: Risk of unsafe operation. Unit
cycles automatically when power is on.
When performing maintenance, you may be
exposed to voltage sources, compressed air,
or moving parts. Personal injuries can occur.
Before performing any maintenance or repair,
disconnect power source from the compressor
and bleed off all air pressure.
Know Your Air Compressor
READ THIS OWNER'S MANUAL AND SAFETY RULES BEFORE
OPERATING YOUR UNIT. Compare the illustrations with
your unit to familiarize yourself with the location of
various controls and adjustments. Save this manual for
future reference.
Description of Operation (Fig. A)
Become familiar with these controls before operating
the unit.
on(I)/off(o) switch: Place this switch
position to provide automatic power to the pressure switch
and Off(O) to remove power at the end of each use.
pressure switch (not shown): The pressure switch
automatically starts the motor when the air tank pressure
drops below the factory set "cut-in" pressure. It stops the
motor when the air tank pressure reaches the factory set
"cut-out" pressure.
safety Valve: If the pressure switch does not shut off the
air compressor at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the safety
7
valve will protect against high pressure by "popping out"
