3. Inspect the plug and cord before
each use. Do not use if there are
signs of damage.
4. 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.
RISK OF
ELECTRICAL
SHOCK. IMPROPER GROUNDING
CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL
SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If
it does not fit the available outlet,
a correct outlet should be installed
by a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug
MUST be made by a qualified
electrician.
Extension Cords
Using extension cords is not
recommended. The use of extension
cords will cause voltage to drop
resulting in power loss to the motor
and overheating.
Instead of using an extension cord,
increase the working reach of the
air hose by attaching another length
of hose to its end. Attach additional
lengths of hose as needed.
If an extension cord must be used,
be sure it is:
• a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding plug, and a
3-slot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the product
• in good condition
• no longer than 50 feet
• 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire
size increases as gauge number
decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG
may also be used. DO NOT
USE 14 OR 16 AWG.)

Voltage and Circuit Protection

Refer to the specification chart for
the voltage and minimum branch
circuit requirements.
air compressors can be operated
on a 15 amp circuit if the following
conditions are met.
1. Voltage supply to circuit must
comply with the National
Electrical Code.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any
other electrical needs.
3. Extension cords comply with
specifications.
4. Circuit is equipped with a
15 amp circuit breaker or 15
amp time delay fuse. NOTE: If
compressor is connected to a
circuit protected by fuses, use
only time delay fuses. Time delay
fuses should be marked "D" in
Canada and "T" in the US.
If any of the above conditions
cannot be met, or if operation of
the compressor repeatedly causes
interruption of the power, it may be
necessary to operate it from a 20
amp circuit. It is not necessary to
change the cord set.
120/240 Dual Voltage Motor
This model has a dual voltage motor,
120 and 240 volt. It is wired for 120
volt but can be converted to 240 volt
operation. Instructions for connecting
the motor for operation at 240 volt
can be found printed on the label
attached to the side of the motor.
attached three-prong 120V cord
assembly must be replaced with a
three-pronged 240V cord assembly
(K-0080) that can be purchased
through a Sears Service Center.
