information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replace-

ment.

2. DANGER! This Air Compressor is NOT equipped and should not be used “as

is” to supply breathing quality air. For any application of air for human consumption,

you must fit the Air Compressor with suitable inline safety and alarm equipment (not

included). This additional equipment is necessary to properly filter and purify the air

to meet minimal specifications for Grade D breathing as described in Compressed

Gas Association Commodity Specification G 7.1-1966, OSHA 29 CFR 1910. 134,

and/or Canadian Standards Associations (CSA). In the event the Air Compressor

Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is

properly grounded. Do not modify the power cord plug provided with the tool. Never

remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the power cord or

plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a service facility before use. If the

plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

GROUNDED TOOLS: TOOLS WITH THREE PRONG PLUGS

1. Tools marked with “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong

grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet. If

the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low

resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric

shock. (See Figure A.)

2. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the

cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the

only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached

to an electrically “live” terminal. (See Figure A.)

3. Your tool must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and

grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet

should look like those in the following illustration. (See Figure A.)
