personnel if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded.
Do not use any type of adapter with this product. If repair or replacement of
the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat
blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green
with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
This product must be grounded. If there should be a malfunction or

breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current
to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord
having an equipment grounding conductor and a grounding type plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
1. SENCO® DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power
loss and overheating of the motor. Use of an additional air hose is recommended rather than an
extension cord. If use of an extension cord is unavoidable, it should be plugged into a GFCI found in
circuit boxes or protected receptacles.
When using an extension cord, observe the following:
Use only 3-blade extension cords that have 3-blade grounding-type plugs and 3-slot cord connectors
that will accept the plug from the product. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not
less than the rating of the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord
before using and replace if damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to
disconnect. Keep cord away from heat and sharp edges. Always shut off the air compressor switch
before removing the plug from the receptacle.
