If repairing or replacing cord or plug, the grounding wire
must be kept separate from the current-carrying wires.
Never connect the grounding wire to a flat blade plug ter-
minal. The grounding wire has insulation with an outer sur-
face that is green with or without yellow stripes.
If these grounding instructions are not completely under-
stood, or if in doubt as to whether the compressor is prop-
erly grounded, have the installation checked by a qualified
electrician.
This portable air compressor is equipped with a cord having
a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The
plug must be used with an outlet that has been installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
The outlet must have the same configuration as the plug.
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.
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated
area. The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which
could reduce air delivery of the air compressor. The air com-
pressor 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.

REMOVAL OF SHIPPING BOARDS AND INSTALLATION
FOR STATIONARY (PERMANENTLY MOUNTED) UNITS
1. Remove all packaging such that only the compressor
on the pallet remains. Remove and discard the (4)
screws and washers that hold the compressor to the
pallet.
2. This compressor is designed to be bolted directly to a
level floor. Prior to installing, place the new washers
which are supplied with the compressor, between the
feet and floor such that the ring base at the bottom of
the tank does not contact the floor. Tighten bolts 15-20

It may be necessary to brace or support one
side of the outfit when removing the shipping
boards because the air compressor will have a
tendency to tip.
