AllTrade 540010 Grounding Instructions, Compressor Features, Extension Cord Length

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

DANGER

Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in a risk of electric shock. If repair or replacement of the cord is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or with- out yellow stripes is the grounding wire.

This product is for use on a nominal 120-volt circuit and has a three-prong grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in Figure 1. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter could be used with this product.

The use of a GFCI outlet is strongly recommended. The third prong is to be used to ground the tool and provide protection against electrical shock. Never remove the third prong.

Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

Extension Cords - Alltrade does not recommend the use on an extension cord with this product as this may result in the loss of power and overheating of the motor. An additional air hose should be used instead of an extension cord.

However, if the use of an extension cord is unavoidable, use only UL listed three wire extension cords that have three-pronged ground- ing type plugs and three prong receptacles that accept the tool's plug. Improper use of extension cords may cause inefficient operation of your tool, which can result in overheating. Be sure your extension cord is rated to allow sufficient flow to motor. Refer to the guide below for minimum gauge required for extension cords.

Extension Cord Length	Wire Size (A.W.C.)
Up to 25 Feet	14
26 to 50 Feet	12
51 to 100 Feet	10

Use of an extension cord rated to carry the current the tool will draw is very important, especially when the power source is at great distance. An extension cord of insufficient rating will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in power loss and causing the motor to overheat.

Guard against electrical shock. Avoid body contact with grounded services such as pipes, radiators, ovens, stoves, and refrigerator enclosures. If not properly grounded, this power tool can incur the potential hazard of light trickle shock, particularly when used in damp locations. If an electrical shock occurs, there is the potential of a secondary hazard such as your hands contacting an operating air tool.

COMPRESSOR FEATURES

1.Oil Lubrication: Oil lubricated direct drive pump with cast-iron cylinder for durability.

2.OIL FILL SIGHT GLASS: Located on the face of the crankcase, the oil fill sight glass provides a convenient way to check the oil fill level within the pump. The oil level must be checked prior to each use to ensure proper fill level.

WARNING

DO NOT OPERATE THE COMPRESSOR WITHOUT LUBRICANT, OR WITH LOW LUBRICATION LEVEL. ALLTRADE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE

FOR DAMAGE CAUSED TO THE COMPRESSOR DUE TO OPERATION WITHOUT PROPER LUBRICATION.
