HAZARD. THE WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, DANGERS, AND SAFETY SUGGESTIONS ARE
THEREFORE NOT ALL INCLUSIVE. AS THE OWNER YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SAFE
OPERATION OF THIS EQUIPMENT. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT ANYONE USING THIS

The compressor controller has a maximum standard pressure set at 160psi - the pressure band
(low/on and high/off ) can be digitally set (via the adjustment screw on the back panel at the top
left corner) anywhere between the range of minimum: 40 psi to a maximum of: 160 psi. This
maximum pressure setting is put into place as most standard reciprocating air compressors are
not designed for pressures above this threshold and may cause safety issues if exceeded. If you
would like to have a higher maximum pressure set-point please let us know by contacting
customer support - we require a written liability release and the compressor controller will require
to be serviced at the SAM factory.
In the event that an injury does occur, please seek medical attention at once since the equipment may cause injuries
that are not initially recognized. Use proper electrical power. Connect unit to a dedicated circuit of the proper voltage,
proper rated circuit breaker, and wired with the proper wire size and number of conductors. Use supply Wires suitable
for 110°C Ensure that all connections are properly tightened. Improper connections could result, causing damage,
injury, or death of the equipment operator. This machine must be connected in accordance with the National Electric
Code (NEC) Article 422-4 - Ed-31, Except as provided for in NEC 90-4. This machine must be properly grounded to
avoid fatal electrical shock in the event of an electrical malfunction. A ground connector screw should be fastened
into the chassis to facilitate supplemental grounding as permitted by NEC 250-91. ! DANGER Do not connect any
other equipment to the electrical circuit serving this unit. Do not replace a fuse or circuit breaker with one of a higher
rating without being certain the wire size is adequate to handle the increased electrical load. Keep all electrical
connections dry and off of the ground. Observe all local and national codes for the installation and use of this type of
equipment. Please use the following criteria for wire selection. • 0 to 25 Feet from Main Power Source - At least the
same size wire. • 25 to 50 Feet from Main Power Source - At least one wire size larger. • 50 to 100 Feet from Main
Power Source - At least two wire sizes larger. • 100 to 150 Feet from Main Power Source - At least three wire sizes
larger. If the wire size being used is too small, the voltage drop will be high, and this will cause the motor to draw
excessive current and overheat or fail. If there are any questions or problems with the electrical system being used
please, do not hesitate in calling a local qualified electrician. Wear proper protective clothing and equipment.
Wear full eye protection (preferably a face shield) while operating this product. The pressurized spray from the air
compressor can cause severe injury to the eyes. It also may contain irritants, particles or caustic chemicals. Do not
operate with protective covers or guards removed. The Compressor Controller unit may start and stop the air
compressor, drain or release valve automatically when. Do not operate with any electrical panels or covers opened.
Operating this unit with any of the electrical panels or covers opened may expose high powered electrical
