This air compressor pump is capable
of running continuously. However, to
prolong the life of your air compressor,
it is recommended that a 50%-75%
average duty cycle be maintained; that
is, the air compressor pump should
not run more than 30-45 minutes in
any given hour.

INSTALLATION
HOW TO SET UP YOUR UNIT
Location of the Air Compressor
•
Locate the air compressor in a
clean, dry and well ventilated
area.
• The air compressor should be
located at least 12" (30.5 cm)
away from the wall or other
obstructions that will interfere
with the flow of air.
• Place the air compressor on a flat
level surface resting on the rub-
ber bumpers and wheels
• The air compressor pump and
shroud are designed to allow for
proper cooling. The ventilation
openings on the compressor are
necessary to maintain proper
operating temperature. Do not
place rags or other containers on
or near these openings.
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).
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.

sor is properly grounded, have the
installation checked by a qualified
electrician.
