Please ensure that the air compressor is electrically connected in a safe and correct manner.
Any electrical work should be carried out by an electrician and installed in a way which
meets all applicable codes and regulations.
Failure to connect the air compressor correctly to power source may result in serious
personal injury or damage to the equipment.
Please note that under normal conditions, the air compressor will operate intermittently.
Should it be necessary to service, ensure the power source has been shut down to prevent
personal injury or damage to the unit.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a service agent in order to avoid a
hazard.

EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in voltage and loss of power. For
optimum performance, plug the compressor power cord directly into a grounded wall
socket. Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely necessary. It is better to use a long
air hose to reach area where work is being performed. If use of an extension cord can not
be avoided, refer to the following guidelines

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. Be sure quality is sufficient to carry
the current the unit will draw.
