Air Compressor
8. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely
understood or if in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided.
If the plug provided will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt AC circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the
plug illustrated in Figure 35. Make sure that the product is connected to a GFCI outlet having the
same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

9. Locate the air compressor as close to the outlet as possible. 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. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER:
Improper installation of the grounding plug can 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 surfac e that is green
with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire

10. The air compressor must always be resting on its base in a horizontal position. Ensure the selected
location is not prone to temporary flooding such as a low area or near a gutter downspout. Evidence of
flooding will void warranty.
11. Layout the air line from steps 6 & 7 (tank to the air compressor). Do not connect the air line to the
air compressor until completing the alarm installation. Peak performance is obtained when the air
compressor is connected to the diffuser assembly with the shortest length of air line.
