1.Voltage supply to circuit must comply with the National Electrical Code.
2.Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs (lights, appliances, etc.)
3.Extension cords comply with specifications in owners manual.
4.Circuit is equipped with 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp time delay fuse. If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power it may be necessary to operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to change the cord set.
**A circuit breaker is preferred. Use only a fuse or circuit breaker that is the same rating as the branch circuit the air compressor is operated on. If the air compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use time delay fuses.
