2. Remove hose from air outlet (F).
Lubrication
AIR COMPRESSOR
Oilless air compressors are factory lubricated for life and do not
require any oil.
Compatibility
Air tools and accessories that are run off the compressor must be
compatible with petroleum based products. If you suspect that a
material is not compatible with petroleum products, an air line filter
for removal of moisture and oil vapor in compressed air is required.
NOTE: Always use an air line filter to remove moisture and oil vapor
when spraying paint.
Location
•
Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry, and well ventilated
area.
•
Located the air compressor at least 12" (30.5 cm) away from
the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of
air.
•
Locate the air compressor as close to the main power supply
as possible to avoid using long lengths of electrical wiring.
NOTE: Long lengths of electrical wiring could cause power
loss to the motor.
•
The air filter must be kept clear of obstructions which could
reduce air flow to the air compressor.
Wiring Instructions
WARNING:
Improper electrical installation of this product
may void its warranty and your fire insurance. Have circuit wiring
performed by qualified personnel such as a licensed electrician
who is familiar with the current national electrical code and any
prevailing local electrical codes.
WARNING:
Risk of electrical shock. Improper electrical
grounding can result in electrical shock. The wiring should be
done by a qualified electrician.
A qualified electrician needs to knows the following before wiring:
1. The amperage rating of the electrical box should be adequate.
Refer to the Specifications, in the parts manual, for this
information.
2. The supply line should have the same electrical characteristics
(voltage, cycle, phase) as the motor. Refer to the motor
nameplate, on side of motor, for this information.
NOTE: The wiring used must be rated for the motor nameplate
voltage, plus or minus 10%. Refer to local codes for recommended
wire sizes, correct wire size, and maximum wire run; undersize wire
causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock. Electrical wiring must be
located away from hot surfaces such as manifold assembly,
compressor outlet tubes, heads, or cylinders.
Grounding Instructions
WARNING: 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.
The portable air compressor is equipped with a cord having a
grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug.
1. The cord set and plug (O) with this unit contains a grounding
