Grounding
Instructions
DANGER:
Improper grounding can result in electrical shock. In the event
of a short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. The air compressor must be grounded. This
compressor is for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and is equipped with
a grounding wire and appropriate grounding plug that looks like the plug
illustrated. The plug must be used with an outlet that has been installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Make sure
that the compressor is connected to an outlet having the same configuration
as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product. Inspect the plug
and cord before each use. Do not use compressor if there are signs of
damage.
DANGER:
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in
electrical shock. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is required,
do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire
with the green (with or without yellow stripes) insulation is the grounding
wire and must be connected to the grounding pin. Check with a qualified
electrician if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or
if unsure unit is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug that has been
provided. If it does not fit the available outlet, the correct grounded outlet
must be installed by a qualified electrician.
