INSTALLATION
GETTING STARTED
Location of the Air Compressor
The air compressor should always be located in a clean, dry and well ventilated
environment. The unit should have at minimum, 12 inches of space on each
side. The air filter intake should be free of any debris or obstructions. Check
the air filter on a daily basis to make sure it is clean and in working order.
RISK OF EXPLOSION OR FIRE.
This product incorporates snap action switch contacts and a induction electric
motor which tends to produce arcs and sparking and therefore should not
be exposed to flammable liquids or vapors. This product is not intended for
installation or use in a commercial garage or shop environment.
Grounding Instructions
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding
wire with an appropriate grounding plug. (See Figure 3.) The plug must be
plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances. Check with a qualified electrician or
service personnel if these instructions are not completely understood or if in
doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Improper installation of the grounding plug will result in a risk of electric shock.
If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the
grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an
outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
Substitution of the signal word "DANGER" for "WARNING" is not prohibited
when the risk associated with the product is such that a situation exists which
if not avoided will result in death or serious injury. Check with a qualified
electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do
not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a grounding plug
similar to the plug illustrated in (Figure 3). Only connect the product to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this
product.
