Portable Air Compressor
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF
ELECTRICAL
SHOCK. In the event of a short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk
of shock by providing an escape
wire for the electric current. This
air compressor must be properly
grounded.
The portable air compressor is
equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug (see following
illustrations). The plug must be used
with an outlet that has been installed
and grounded in accordance with all
local codes and ordinances.
1. The cord set and plug with this
unit contains a grounding pin.
This plug MUST be used with a
grounded outlet.
IMPORTANT:
The outlet being used
must be installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
2. Make sure the outlet being used
has the same configuration as
the grounded plug.
DO NOT USE
AN ADAPTER.
See illustration.
3. Inspect the plug and cord before
each use. Do not use if there are
signs of damage.

4. If these grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or
if in doubt as to whether the
compressor is properly grounded,
have the installation checked by
a qualified electrician.
IMPROPER
GROUNDING
CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL
SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If
it does not fit the available outlet, a
correct outlet should be installed
by a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug
MUST be made by a qualified
electrician.
EXTENSION CORDS
Use extra air hose instead of an
extension cord to avoid voltage drop
and power loss to the motor, and to
prevent overheating.
If an extension cord must be used, be
sure it is:
a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding plug, and a
3-slot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the product
in good condition
no longer than 50 feet
12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire
size increases as gauge number
decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG
may also be used. DO NOT USE
14 OR 16 AWG.)
