Refer to the air compressor's serial label forthe unit'svoltageand
amperage requirements.
Use a dedicatedcircuit.For best performanceand reliable starting,the air
compressor mustbe pluggedinto a dedicated circuit,as closeas possible
to the fuseboxor circuitbreaker.The compressor will use the full capacityof
a typical 15 amp householdcircuit.If other devicesare on the same circuit,
the compressormay fail to start. Lowvoltage or an overloadedcircuitcan
result insluggishstartingthat causesthe motoroverload protectionsystem
circuitbreaker to trip, especiallyincold conditions.
Note: A circuitbreaker is recommended.If the air compressor is
connectedto a circuitprotected bya fuse, use dual element time
delay fuses (Buss Fusetrontype "1" only).
Note: Avoid use of extensioncords.If using an extensioncord
is necessary, be sure to use an extension with the correct
specifications.
For optimum performance, plug the compressor power cord directlyinto a
groundedwall socket.Do not use an extensioncord unless absolutely
necessary. Instead,use a longer air hoseto reach the area where the air is
needed.
If use of an extension cord cannotbe avoided, the cord should be no longer
than 100 feet and be a minimum wire size of 14 gauge (AWG).
