The wiring shouldbe done by a qualified electricianA qualified electrician needs to knowsthe following before wiring:1. The amperage rating of the electrical box should be adequate. Referto the Specification Chart for thisinformation.2. The supply line should have thesame electrical characteristics(voltage, cycle, phase) as themotor. Refer to the motor nameplate, on side of motor, for thisinformation.NOTE: The wiring must be the sameas the motor nameplate voltage plusor minus 10%. Refer to local codes forrecommended wire sizes, correct wiresize, and maximum wire run; undersizewire causes high amp draw and overheating to the motor.The next figure represents a typicalair distribution system. The followingare tips to remember when setting upthe air compressor's air distributionsystem. Use pipe that is the same size asthe air tank outlet. Piping that istoo small will restrict the flow ofair. IRiskof ElectricalShock.Electricalwiring must be located away fromhot surfaces such as manifoldassembly, compressor outlet tubes,heads, or cylinders.11-ENGIf piping is over 100 feet (30.5 m)long, use the next larger size.Bury underground lines belowthe frost line and avoid pocketswhere condensation can gatherand freeze. Apply pressure beforeunderground lines are covered tomake sure all pipe joints are freeof leaks.A flexible coupling is recommended to be installed between the airdischarge outlet and main air distribution line to allow for vibration.A separate regulator is recommended to control the air pressure. Air pressure from the tankis usually to high for individual airdriven tools.N001248
