low all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire, and/or serious personal injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WORK AREA
n Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered
benches and dark areas invite accidents. Floor must not be slippery from wax or dust.
n Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable liq­uids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
n Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while
operating tools. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
n Operate air compressor in an open area at least
18 in. away from any wall or object that could re­strict the flow of fresh air to ventilation openings.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
n Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.
n Don’t expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
n Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry
the tool or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
n
When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
n Eye protection which conforms to ANSI specifica-
tions and provides protection against flying particles both from the FRONT and SIDE should ALWAYS be worn by the operator and others in the work area when loading, operating, or servicing this tool. Eye
protection is required to guard against flying fasteners and debris, which could cause severe eye injury.
n The employer and/or user must ensure that proper
eye protection is worn. We recommend a Wide Vision
Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses that provide protection against flying particles both from the front and side. Always use eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
n Additional safety protection will be required in some
environments. For example, the working area may
include exposure to a noise level which can lead to hearing damage. The employer and user must ensure that any necessary hearing protection is provided and used by the operator and others in the work area. Some environments will require the use of head protec­tion equipment. When required, the employer and user must ensure that head protection marked to comply with ANSI Z89.1 is used.

control of the tool in unexpected situations.
n Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection.
Dust mask, nonskid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions.
n Do not use on a ladder or unstable support. Stable
footing on a solid surface enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
TOOL USE AND CARE
n Do not exceed the pressure rating of any compo-
nent in the system.
n Protect material lines and air lines from damage or
puncture. Keep hose and power cord away from sharp
objects, chemical spills, oil, solvents, and wet floors.
n Check hoses for weak or worn condition before
each use, making certain all connections are se­cure. Do not use if defect is found. Purchase a new
hose or notify an authorized service center for exami­nation or repair.
n Release all pressures within the system slowly. Dust
and debris may be harmful.
n Store idle tools out of the reach of children and
other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
n Maintain tools with care. Follow maintenance instruc-
tions. Properly maintained tools are easier to control.
n Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained tools.

EXTENSION CORDS
Use only 3-wire extension cords that have 3-prong grounding plugs and 3-pole receptacles that accept the air compressor’s plug. When using the air compressor at a considerable distance from the power source, use an extension cord heavy enough to carry the current that the compressor will draw. An undersized extension cord will cause a drop in line voltage, resulting in a loss of power and causing the motor to overheat. Use the chart pro­vided below to determine the minimum wire size required in an extension cord. Only round jacketed cords listed by Underwriter’s Laboratories (UL) should be used.
**Ampere rating (on air compressor data plate)

**Used on 12 gauge - 20 amp circuit. NOTE: AWG = American Wire Gauge
When working with the air compressor outdoors, use an extension cord that is designed for outside use. This is indicated by the letters “W-A” on the cord’s jacket.
Before using an extension cord, inspect it for loose or exposed wires and cut or worn insulation.
WARNING:
Keep the extension cord clear of the working area. Position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, or other obstructions while you are working with a power tool. Failure to do so can result in serious per­sonal injury.
WARNING:
SPEED AND WIRING
The no-load speed of this air compressor is approximately 26,000 rpm. This speed is not constant and decreases under a load or with lower voltage. For voltage, the wiring in a shop is as important as the motor’s horsepower rat­ing. A line intended only for lights cannot properly carry a power tool motor. Wire that is heavy enough for a short distance will be too light for a greater distance. A line that can support one power tool may not be able to support two or three tools.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This air compressor is equipped with an electric cord having an equipment­grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into a matching outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding con­ductor can result in a risk of electric shock. The conduc­tor with insulation having an outer surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment-grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-ground­ing conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel if the grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
Repair or replace a damaged or worn cord immediately.
This air compressor is intended for use on a circuit that has an outlet like the one shown in figure 1. It also has a grounding pin like the one shown. This product must be grounded.
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged, replace immediately. Never use air compressor with a damaged cord since touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
NOTE: Use longer air hoses instead of long extension cords. Your air compressor will run better and last longer.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
This air compressor is powered by a precision built electric motor. It should be connected to a power sup-
ply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC).
A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If the air compressor does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double check the power supply.

Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum­based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic which may result in serious personal injury. Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wall­board, spackling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Con­sequently, we do not recommended using this tool for extended work on these types of materials. However, if you do work with any of these materials, it is extremely important to clean the tool using compressed air.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a suffi­cient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication of the bearings is required.
