Grounding Instructions
Improper grounding can result in electrical shock. In the event of a
DANGER:
short circuit, grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape wire for
the electric current. The air compressor must be grounded. This compressor is
for use on a nominal 120 volt circuit and is equipped with a grounding wire and
appropriate grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated. The plug must be
used with an outlet that has been installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances. Make sure that the compressor is connected
to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be
used with this product. Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not use
compressor if there are signs of damage.
Improper installation of the grounding plug can result in electrical
DANGER:
shock. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is required, do not connect
the grounding wire to either flat blade terminal. The wire with the green (with or
without yellow stripes) insulation is the grounding wire and must be connected to
the grounding pin. Check with a qualified electrician if the grounding instructions
are not completely understood, or if unsure unit is properly grounded. Do not
modify the plug that has been provided. If it does not fit the available outlet, the
correct grounded outlet must be installed by a qualified electrician.
