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.

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" 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.
