AllTrade Air Plus 11 Gal Air Compressor 540010 User Manual

TOO MUCH AIR PRESSURE CAUSES A HAZARDOUS RISK OF BURSTING. CHECK THE MANUFACTURERS MAXIMUM PRESSURE
RATING FOR AIR TOOLS AND ACCESSORIES. THE REGULATOR OUTLET PRESSURE MUST NEVER EXCEED THE MAXIMUM PRES-
SURE RATING.
7.Before connecting the compressor to the grounded outlet, check oil level, check for broken components and accessories, and
check for damage to the hose.
8.Plug power cord directly into a properly grounded power source of the correct voltage (see Grounding Instructions on page 7 of
