CAUTION: Multi-viscosity motor oils, like 10W30, should not be
used in an air compressor. They leave carbon deposits on critical
components, thus reducing performance and compressor like.
Use SAE 40, non-detergent air compressor oil only.
1. Place unit on a level surface.
2. Remove the shipping plug and install the
dipstick.
3. Remove the dipstick (K) and check the oil
level. Oil should not exceed top raised line on
dipstick. If oil is below lower mark see
Checking Oil under Compressor Pump
Oil under
Maintenance.
Specifications for pump oil capacity.
CAUTION: Risk of unsafe operation. Overfilling with oil will cause
premature compressor failure. Do not overfill.
4. Replace dipstick.
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 pin (P). This
plug MUST be used with a grounded
outlet (Q).
IMPORTANT: The outlet being used must
be installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances.
2. Ensure the outlet being used has the same configuration as
the grounded plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.

NOTE: See
O
Q
P
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.
DANGER: 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 3­wire extension cord that has a 3­blade grounding plug, and
a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on the product
• in good condition
• no longer than 50 feet (15,2 m)
• 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge num-
ber decreases. 10 AWG and 8 AWG may also be used. DO
NOT USE 14 OR 16 AWG.)
