ASSEMBLY
Installing Wheels, Handles, Rubber Foot Strip
THE WHEELS AND HANDLE DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE CLEARANCE, STABILITY OR SUP- PORT FOR PULLING THE UNIT UP AND DOWN STAIRS OR STEPS. THE UNIT MUST
BE LIFTED, OR PUSHED UP A RAMP.
1.Attach the handle to the compressor saddle by inserting the handle inside the compressor saddle and lining up the two bolt holes on each side. Install the four screws, two on each side. Tighten securely.
2.Install one shoulder bolt and one nut for each wheel. Tighten securely. The compressor will sit level if the wheels are properly installed.
3.Clean and dry underside of air tank leg opposite wheels. Remove the protective paper strip from the adhesive backed rubber foot strip. Attach the rubber foot strip to the bottom of leg. Press firmly into place.
BREAK-IN PROCEDURES
Location of the Air Compressor
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry and well venti- lated area. The air filter must be kept clear of obstruc- tions which could reduce air delivery of the air compres- sor. The air compressor should be located at least 12" away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of fresh intake and cooling air.
Lubrication and Oil
This unit needs no lubrication or oiling.
Grounding Instructions
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.
This portable air compressor is equipped with a cord hav- ing a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The plug must be used with an outlet that has been in- stalled and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. The outlet must have the same configu- ration as the plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.
Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not use if there are signs of damage.
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug that has been provided. If it does not fit the available outlet, the correct outlet should be installed by a qualified technician.
If repairing or replacing cord or plug, the grounding wire must be kept separate from the
If these grounding instructions are not completely under- stood, or if in doubt as to whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked by a qualified electrician.
Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to page 5 (Specification Chart) for the voltage and circuit protection requirements of your compressor. Use only a fuse or circuit breaker that is the same rating as the branch circuit the air compressor is operated on. If the compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only dual element time delay fuses.
Refer to Parts List Manual for your compressor. Certain air compressor models can be operated on a 15 amp circuit if:
1. Voltage supply to circuit is normal.
