IMPORTANT SAFETY 
INSTRUCTIONS 

Safety Messages & Signal Words: 

DANGER

There is a danger of electric shock.

Use only undamaged electrical cords.

DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.

DO NOT operate air compressor in wet weather or in wet 
conditions.

DO NOT touch air compressor or cords if hands or feet are 
wet.

Ensure that all cords are free of damage before connecting 
to the power supply.

Ensure that you have a sufficient electrical supply for 
supporting the requirements of the motor.

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 terminal. The wire with insulation having an 
outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is 
the grounding wire.

This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical 
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical 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 the local codes and 
ordinances.

This product is for use on a nominal 220-V circuit and has a 
grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in sketch A. 
Only connect the product to an outlet having the same 
configuration as the plug.

Do not use an adapter with this product.
