ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENTS
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.
UNPACKING
Remove unit from carton and discard all packaging.
INSTALLATION
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"
(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 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

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. 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 the Specification Chart 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.
