GROUNDING

TO PREVENT

ELECTRIC SHOCK

AND DEATH FROM INCORRECT

GROUNDING WIRE

CONNECTION:

Check with a qualied electrician

if you are in doubt as to whether

the outlet is properly grounded.

Do not modify the power cord

plug provided with the

compressor. Never remove the

grounding prong from the plug.

Do not use the compressor if the

power cord or plug is damaged.

If damaged, have it repaired by a

service facility before use. If the

plug will not t the outlet, have a

proper outlet installed by a

qualied electrician.

110-120 V~ Grounded Compressors:

Compressors with

Three Prong Plugs

1. 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

compressor is equipped with an electric

cord having an equipment-grounding

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.

not t the outlet, have the proper outlet

installed by a qualied electrician.

3. 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.

4. Check with a qualied electrician or

service personnel if the grounding

instructions are not completely

understood, or if in doubt as to whether

the compressor is properly grounded.

5. Use only 3-wire extension cords that

have 3-prong grounding plugs and

3-pole receptacles that accept the

compressor’s plug.

6. Repair or replace damaged or worn cord

immediately.

Checking the Oil

1. Check the oil level before operation.

Fill the Pump Crankcase with premium

quality SAE 30-weight, non-detergent, air

compressor oil (sold separately).

IMPORTANT: Running the Air Compressor

with the incorrect amount of oil will

cause damage to the equipment

and void the warranty. To prevent

damage, do not use with overlled

or low oil. Slowly ll to full line, wait

2 minutes and ll back up to full line.

Compressor has small passages that

will ll slowly.

OIL LEVEL

Figure 5

The oil level should be at the center of

the “full” level on the oil level sight glass,

as shown in Figure 2. Add oil as needed

to maintain this level. Do not let the

oil level go below the center dot (LOW

as shown above) and do not overll

the oil so that it is above the center dot

(OVERFILL as shown above) on the

sight glass.

3. To add oil:

a. Remove the Oil Plug.

b. Using a funnel to avoid spills, pour

enough oil into the Pump Crankcase

to reach the “full” level in the Oil Sight

Glass.

c. Replace the Oil Plug.

Cold Weather Operation

Premium quality SAE 30-weight, non-

detergent, air compressor oil (sold

separately) is recommended for use

with this compressor. Start compressor

in heated area if outdoor temperatures

drop below 32° F. If this is not practical,

drain out the old pump oil and use SAE

10W Non-detergent Air Compressor Oil

in the pump crankcase instead whenever

the compressor’s temperature will fall

below 40°. Do not use multi-viscosity

oil (such as 10W-30), they leave carbon

deposits on pump components and lead

to accelerated failure. Heavy operation

may require heavier viscosity oil.

4. If uncertain which oil to use for this

compressor, please call Harbor Freight

Tools customer service at 1-800-444-

3353 for assistance.

5. Change the compressor oil after the

rst hour of use to remove any debris.

WARNING! To prevent serious injury from

burns: Do not add or change the oil while

the compressor is in operation. Allow the

compressor to cool before replacing oil.
