INSTRUCTIONS:
BEFORE OPERATING COMPRESSOR, READ AND FOLLOW
DIRECTIONS AS OUTLINED BELOW.

“walk” off elevated surfaces, possibly causing damage to unit
or injury to you.
2. Plug cord into 115 Volt, 60 Cy., grounded outlet.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS:
This product should be grounded. In the event of an electrical short
circuit, grounding reduces the risk of electrical shock by providing an
escape wire for the electric current. This product is equipped with a
cord having a grounding wire with an appropriate grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an outlet that is properly installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
DANGER—Improper use of the grounding plug can result in a
risk of electrical shock.If repair or replacement of the cord or
plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire to either flat
blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface
that is green with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.
Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the product is properly grounded. DO NOT modify the
plug provided; if it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.
This product is for use on nominal 120-volt circuit and has a
grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch below.
Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the
same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with
this product.
EXTENSION CORDS:
Use only 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.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an
extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the
current the product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating.
AUTOMATIC THERMAL LIMITED
