Grounding Instructions
WARNING: Risk of electrical 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.
2.Ensure the outlet being used has the same configuration as the grounded plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.
3.Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not use if there are signs of damage.
4.If these grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked by a qualified electrician.
DANGER: Risk of electrical shock. IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
•Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available outlet, a correct outlet should be installed by a qualified electri- cian.
•Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified electrician.
