INSTALLATION AND STAR'FUPPROCEDURES
Location of the Air Compressor
Operate the air compressor in a dry, dean, cool and well ventilated area, The air intake muffler must be kept clear of obstructions which could reduce air delivery of the air compressor, The air compressor pump and case are
designed to allow for proper cooling. Clean or blow off dust or dirt that collects on air compressor. A clean air
compressor runs cooler and provides longer service. The ventilation openings on your air compressor are necessary to maintain proper operating temperature. Do not place rags or other containers on or near these openings.
Extension Cords
USe extra air hose instead of an extension cord TOavoid voltage drop end power loss to the motor.
If you mum use an extension cord be sure it is:
•a
•in good condition.
•50 feet or shorter.

IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN A
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. IN THE EVENT OF A SHORT CIRCUIT, GROUNDING
REDUCES THE RISK OF SHOCK BY PRO- VIDING AN ESCAPE WIRE FOR THE ELEC-
MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED. READ TRIC CURRENT_ THIS AIR COMPRESSOR
THE FOLLOWING.
. The air compressor is designed for 120 volt operation only and is equipped with a cord having a grounding wire with an appmgriate grounding plug.
