1. In the event of a malfunction or

breakdown, grounding provides a path

of least resistance for electric current to

reduce the risk of electric shock. This

compressor is equipped with an electric

cord having an equipment-grounding

conductor and a grounding plug. The

plug must be plugged into a matching

outlet that is properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

2. Do not modify the plug provided – if it will

not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

3. Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk

of electric shock. The conductor with

insulation having an outer surface that

is green with or without yellow stripes is

the equipment-grounding conductor. If

repair or replacement of the electric cord

or plug is necessary, do not connect the

equipment-grounding conductor to a live

terminal.

4. Check with a qualified electrician or

service personnel if the grounding

instructions are not completely

understood, or if in doubt as to whether

the compressor is properly grounded.

5. Use only 3-wire extension cords that

have 3-prong grounding plugs and

3-pole receptacles that accept the

compressor’s plug.

6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord

immediately.
