HOW TO SET UP YOUR Make sure the outlet being used has the same configuration as the grounded plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER. See illustration. 2. UNIT Location of the Air Compressor Locate the air compressor in a clean, dry and well ventilated area. The air compressor should be located at least 12" away from the wall or other obstructions that will interfere with the flow of air. The air compressor pump and shroud are designed to allow for proper cooling.
Extension Cords Voltage Using extension cords is not recommended. The use of extension Certain air compressors can be operated on a 15 amp circuit if the following conditions are met. Instead of using extension cords attach extra air hoses to each other Q 1. at the air outlet. Jf an extension be sure it is: a 3-wire cord must be used, extension in good condition no longer than 50 feet 12 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge number decreases.
