5-2-5. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
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 electrician. The plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes. If these grounding instructions are not
completely understood or if in doubt as to whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the
installation checked by a qualified electrician.
5-2-5-1. This product is for use on a nominal 115 or 230 volt circuit, as applicable. A cord with a
grounding plug as shown here shall be used. Make sure that the product is connected to
an outlet that matches the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.
(FOR AREA OTHER THAN USA, PLEASE CHECK THE LOCAL CODE.)
5-2-6. EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cord will cause some drop in voltage and loss of power. For optimum
performance, plug the compressor power cord directly into a grounded wall socket. Do not use an
extension cord unless absolutely necessary. It is better to use a long air hose to reach area where
work is being performance. If use of an extension cord can not be avoided, refer to the following
guideline. Use only 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug. Make sure your exten-
sion cord is in good condition. Be sure gauge is sufficient to carry the current the unit will draw. For
length less than 50 ft, use 12 AWG extension cord. Note that the smaller the gauge the heavier the
cord. Example: Gauge 10 is heavier than gauge 12. Do not use 14 or 16 AWG for extension cord.
