• Regulated pressure gauge: This gauge measures the regulated
outlet pressure.
• Regulated pressure quick connect coupler: This coupler connects
to the regulated outlet pressure. Toconnect air hose, push coupler in.
To disconnect air hose, pull the coupler collar back and separate the coupling.

ElectricalWiring
Refer to the air compressor's serial label for the unit's voltage and
amperage requirements.
Use a dedicated circuit. For best performance and reliable starting, the air
compressor must be plugged into a dedicated circuit, as close as possible
to the fusebox or circuit breaker. The compressor will use the full capacity of
a typical 15 amp household circuit. If other devices are on the same circuit,
the compressor may fail to start. Low voltage or an overloaded circuit can
result in sluggish starting that causes the motor overload protection system
circuit breaker to trip, especially in cold conditions.
Note: A circuit breaker is recommended. If the air compressor is
connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, use dual element time
delay fuses (Buss Fusetron type "1" only).
Note: Avoid use of extension cords. If using an extension cord
is necessary, be sure to use an extension with the correct
specifications.
For optimum performance, plug the compressor power cord directly into a
grounded wall socket. Do not use an extension cord unless absolutely
necessary. Instead, use a longer air hose to reach the area where the air is
needed.
If use of an extension cord cannot be avoided, the cord should be no longer
than 100 feet and be a minimum wire size of 14 gauge (AWG).
