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.

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

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.
