1. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES
Safety Messages & Signal Words:
Danger indicates an immediate hazardous situaon which, if not
avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
Warning indicates an potenally hazardous situaon which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
Cauon indicates an potenally hazardous situaon which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury.
Indicates a situaon which, if not avoided, may result in damage
to product components or other property.
This manual contains important instrucons for operang this
product. For your safety, and the safety of others, be sure to read
this manual thoroughly before operang the product.
Failure to properly follow all the instrucons and precauons can
cause you and others to be seriously hurt or killed.
Use cauon to minimize risk of re or explosion.
It is normal for the air compressor motor and pressure switch to
produce sparks while operang. If sparks come in contact with
vapors from gasoline or solvents, they may ignite and cause a re
or explosion.
Abrasive tools such as grinders, drills and other tools can make
sparks that can ignite ammable materials.
Always operate the air compressor a safe distance away from
ammable items. Use in well-venlated areas.
Never exceed the maximum rated pressure.
There is a danger of electric shock.
Use only undamaged electrical cords.
DO NOT touch bare wires or receptacles.
DO NOT operate air compressor in wet weather or in wet
condions.
DO NOT touch air compressor or cords if hands or feet are wet.
Ensure that all cords are free of damage before connecng to the
power supply.
Ensure that you have a sucient electrical supply for supporng
the requirements of the motor.
Improper installaon of the grounding plug can result in a risk
of electric shock. When repair or replacement of the cord or
plug is required, do not connect the grounding wire to either at
terminal. The wire with insulaon having an outer surface that is
green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
This product must be grounded. In the event of an electrical
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by
providing an escape wire for the electric current.
This product is equipped with a cord having grounding wire and
appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an
outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with
the local codes and ordinances.
This product is for use on a nominal 120V circuit and has
a grounding plug similar to the plug illustrated in sketch A
(below). Only connect the product to an outlet having the same
conguraon as the plug.
Do not use an adapter with this product.
Use cauon when using extension cords.
Use 3-wire extension cord which is no more than 25’ (7,6 m)
long, at least 14 gauge, and has a 3-blade grounding plug.
Using an excessively long or thin-wired extension cord will cause
severe damage to the motor.
An undersized cord results in a drop in the line voltage and loss
of power and overheang.
When in doubt, use a heavier gauge. The smaller the AWG
rang, the more current the cord can carry.
