Preparing for use

Local electrical wiring codes differ from area to area. Source wiring and
protector must be rated for at least the amperage and voltage indicated on
the motor nameplate, and meet all electrical codes for this minimum. The
minimum wire size should also meet all electrical codes.
Make sure that the outlet being used is connected to a slow blow fuse type
T or a 120V / 20 amp circuit breaker (1).
This product must be grounded . This product is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug(2).
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman when the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or when in doubt as to whether
the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it does
not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
plug the cord into a properly sized, grounded outlet - 120V, 15 amp (3).
In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of
electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. The plug
must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Although extension cord is not recommended, if you must use only a 3
wire extension cord that has a 3 blade grounding plug and a 3 slot receptacle
that accepts the plug on the product. When using an extension cord be sure
to use one heavy enough to carry the current the product draws.
The distance of the outlet from the electrical box must also be considered.
Outlets being used must be wired under the following specifications: the
outlet's wiring must be 14 AWG for a distance up to 40 ft. long or must be
12 AWG for a distance up to 70 ft. long.
If the above conditions cannot be met or if nuisance tripping of the current
protection device occurs, it may not be possible to operate the compressor
from a 120 volt 20 amp circuit (4).

DANGER: Improperly grounded motors are shock hazards.
Make sure all the equipment is properly grounded.
WARNING: All wiring and electrical connections
must be performed by a qualified electrician familiar
with industrial motor controls. Installation must be in
accordance with local and national codes.
WARNING: Disconnect, tag, and lock out the power
source, and then release all pressure from the system
before attempting to install, service, relocate, or perform
any maintenance.
WARNING: Overheating, short circuiting, and fire damage
will result from inadequate wiring.

This product may be modified to operate at 240V . To do so, a 240V power
cord needs to be purchased and installed on the unit and wired into the
pressure switch just like the 120V cord. The panel on the back of the motor
needs to be opened and the flag terminals need to be moved so that the
brown wire that is on terminal #4 is on terminal #2 and the orange wire that is
on terminal #1 needs to be moved to terminal #4 (where the brown wire was
originally).

IMPORTANT: Damage to the motor from improper electrical

WARNING: Improper installation of the grounding plug
is able to result in a risk of electric shock. When repair
or replacement of the cord or plug is required, 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. This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit
and has a grounding plug similiar to the plug illustrated
in sketch A in Figure 69.1. Only connect the product to an
outlet having the same configuration as the plug. Do not
use an adapter with this product.
