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.
_Risk
of Unsafe
Operation.
Certain
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 protect-
ed 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 compres-
sor 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.
When converting
to
240V operation,
the
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.
