Grounding

In the event of an electrical short, ground- ing reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding wire in the power cord must be properly connected to the grounding prong on the plug; likewise, the outlet must be properly installed and grounded. All electrical connections must be made in accordance with local codes and ordi- nances.

Electrocution or fire could result if this machine is not grounded correctly or if your electrical con- figuration does not comply with local and state codes. Ensure compliance by check- ing with a qualified electrician!

Extension Cords

The use of extension cords can cause power loss and overheating in air com- pressors. When possible, locate the air compressor where it can be plugged into an outlet without the use of an extension cord, and use an additional air hose to reach the work area.

If you find it necessary to use an exten- sion cord with your machine:

•Make sure the cord is rated Standard Service (grade S) or better.

•The extension cord must contain a ground wire and plug pin.

•Use at least a 14 gauge cord. Use a 12 gauge cord if the cord is between 25-100 feet.

•DO NOT use extension cords over 100 feet.
