INSTALLATION
GETTING STARTED
Location of the Air Compressor
The air compressor should always be located in a clean, dry and well ventilated
environment. The unit should have at minimum, 12 inches of space on each side.
The air filter intake should be free of any debris or obstructions. Check the air filter
on a daily basis to make sure it is clean and in working order.
Risk Of Fire Or Explosion
This product incorporates snap action switch contacts and a universal electric
motor which tends to produce arcs and sparking and therefore should not
be exposed to flammable liquids or vapors. This product is not intended for
installation or use in a commercial garage or shop environment.
Grounding Instructions
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. (See Figure 3.) The plug must be plugged
into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances. Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if
these instructions are not completely understood or if in doubt as to whether the
tool is properly grounded.
Improper installation of the grounding plug will 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 surface that is green
with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire. Substitution of the signal
word “DANGER” for “WARNING” is not prohibited when the risk associated
with the product is such that a situation exists which if not avoided will result
in death or serious injury.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if
the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on a nominal 120-V circuit and has a grounding plug
similar to the plug illustrated in (Figure 3). Only connect the product to an outlet
having the same configuration as the plug. Do not use an adapter with this
product.
