GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
1 . This product is for use on a nominal
120 volt circuit and has a grounding
plug that looks like the plug
illustrated in Figure 1 . Make sure the
product is connected to an outlet
having the same configuration
as the plug . This product must
be grounded . In the event of an
electrical short circuit, grounding
reduces risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for electric
current . This product is equipped
with a cord having a grounding
wire with an appropriate grounding
plug . Plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances .
Improper use of grounding
plug can result in a possible
risk of electrical shock!
Do not use a
grounding adapter
with this product!
2 . If repair or replacement of cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect
grounding wire to either flat blade
terminal . The wire with insulation
having an external surface that
is green (with or without yellow
stripes) is the grounding wire .
Never connect
green (or green and
yellow) wire to a live terminal.
3 . Check with a qualified electrician or
serviceman if grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether product is
properly grounded . Do not modify
plug provided; if it will not fit outlet,
have proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician .
Overheating, short
circuiting and fire
damage will result from inadequate
wiring, etc.
the spraying area as possible to
minimize overspray accumulation on
the compressor .
19 . When spraying or cleaning with
solvents or toxic chemicals, follow
the instructions provided by the
chemical manufacturer .
HOSE PRECAUTIONS
20 . Inspect hose before use .
Do not exceed working
pressure marked on hose.
Do not twist, bend knot, or abrade
hose.
21 . Do not wrap hose around body .
Keep away from hot surfaces and
chemicals.
Installation
LOCATION
It is extremely important to use the
compressor in a clean, well ventilated
area where the surrounding air
temperature will not be more than
100°F .
A minimum clearance of 18 inches
between the compressor and a wall is
required because objects could obstruct
air flow .
Do not locate the
compressor air inlet
near steam, paint spray, sandblast areas
or any other source of contamination.
This debris will damage the motor.

MOISTURE IN COMPRESSED AIR
Moisture in compressed air will form into droplets as it comes from an air
compressor pump . When humidity is high or when a compressor is in continuous use
for an extended period of time, this moisture will collect in the tank . When using a
paint spray or sandblast gun, this water will be carried from the tank through the
hose, and out of the gun as droplets mixed with the spray material .
IMPORTANT:
This condensation will cause water spots in a paint job, especially
when spraying other than water based paints . If sandblasting, it will cause the sand
to cake and clog the gun, rendering it ineffective . A filter in the air line, located as
near to the gun as possible, will help eliminate this moisture .
