CONDENSATE DISCHARGE PIPING
If installing a condensate discharge line, the piping must be at least one size larger than the
connection, as short and direct as possible, secured tightly and routed to a suitable drain point.
Condensate must be disposed of in accordance with local, state and federal laws and regulations.
REFUELING (If gasoline engine equipped)
The fuel tank is located on top of the gasoline engine or in an approved red gasoline container.
Always refuel with care. Always allow the engine to cool.
Gasoline is extremely f ammable and its vapors can explode if ignited. Store
gasoline only in approved containers, in well-ventilated, unoccupied buildings,
away from sparks or f ames.
Do not f ll the fuel tank while the engine is hot or running, since spilled fuel
could ignite if it comes in contact with hot parts or sparks from ignition.
Do not start the engine near spilled fuel; wipe up spills immediately. Never use gasoline as a
cleaning agent.
Do not f ll the fuel tank to the point of over f owing. Allow approximately 1-1/4” of tank space
for expansion.
Shut off fuel valve on engine before transporting unit to prevent fuel leaking from carburetor.
STORAGE
Always store the compressor in the horizontal position on the machine’s rubber feet and/or
wheels.
Always ensuring the pump is upright so that the oil does not f ow into the cylinder or out the
crankcase breather.
GROUNDING
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, proper grounding provides a path of least resistance
for electric current to travel and this reduces the risk of electric shock. This compressor is equipped
with an electric cord having an equipment grounding conductor and grounding plug. The plug must
be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. Make sure that the electrical circuit to which the compressor is connected
provides proper electrical grounding, correct voltage and adequate fuse protection.
Do not modify plug provided as this could result in electrical
shock or machine electrical malfunction : if it will not f t the outlet,
have the proper outlet installed by a qualif ed electrician.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The
conductor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the
equipment grounding conductor. If repairing or replacing the electric cord or plug is necessary, do
