Senco

Electric Air Compressor Manual 2004

INITIAL SET-UP:

1. Read safety warnings before setting-up air compressor.

2. Ensure the oil level in the air compressor pump is adequate.

The oil level should be at the center of the oil sight

glass.

If low, add Senco

part number PC0344 compressor pump oil.

LOCATION:

CAUTION

In order to avoid damaging the air compressor, do not incline the air compressor transversely

or longitudinally more than 10°.

1. Place air compressor at least 12 inches away from obstacles that may prevent proper ventilation. Do not

place air compressor in an area:

-where there is evidence of oil or gas leaks.

-where ﬂammable gas vapors or materials may be present.

WARNING

Serious injury or death may occur if electrical sparks from motor and pressure switch come

in contact with ﬂammable vapors, combustible dust, gases or other combustible materials.

When using the air compressor for spray painting, place the air compressor as far away from

the work area as possible, using extra air hoses instead of extension cords.

-where air temperatures fall below 32°F or exceed 104°F.

-where extremely dirty air or water could be drawn into the air compressor.

ELECTRICAL:

DANGER

Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of shock or

electrocution. Check with a qualiﬁed electrician or service personnel if you are in doubt as

to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not use any type of adapter with this product.

If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the grounding wire

to either ﬂat blade terminal. The wire with insulation having an outer surface that is green

with or without yellow stripes is the grounding wire.

PREPARATION

WARNING

This product must be grounded. If there should be a malfunction or breakdown, grounding

provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding type plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly

installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

1. Senco

DOES NOT RECOMMEND THE USE OF EXTENSION CORDS as this can create power loss and

overheating of the motor. Use of an additional air hose is recommended rather than an extension cord. If

use of an extension cord is unavoidable, it should be plugged into a GFCI found in circuit boxes or protected

receptacles. When using an extension cord, observe the following:

Cable Length

Wire Gauge

Up to 25 feet

12 AWG

Up to 100 feet

10 AWG

Up to 150 feet

8 AWG

Up to 250 feet

6 AWG

Use only 3-blade extension cords that have 3-blade grounding-type plugs and 3-slot cord connectors that will

accept the plug from the product. Use only extension cords having an electrical rating not less than the rating

of the product. Do not use damaged extension cords. Examine extension cord before using and replace if

damaged. Do not abuse extension cord and do not yank on any cord to disconnect. Keep cord away from heat

and sharp edges. Always shut off the air compressor switch before removing the plug from the receptacle.
