GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This compressor should be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shock. The compressor is equipped with a three-conductor cord and three-prong grounding type plug to fit the proper grounding type receptacle. The green (or green and yellow) conductor in the cord is the grounding wire. Never connect the green (or green and yellow) wire to a live terminal. If your unit is for use on less than 150 volts, it has a plug that looks like that shown in sketch (A) in Figure on the right. An adapter, see sketches (B) and (C), is available for connecting sketch (A) type plugs to two-prong receptacles. The green-colored rigid ear, lug, or the like extending from the adapter must be connected to a permanent ground, such as a properly grounded outlet box.
NOTE: The grounding adaptor, sketch (C), is prohibited in Canada by Canadian Electrical Code Part 1. Therefore, the instructions for its use are not applicable in Canada.
We recommend that you never disassemble the compressor or try to do any rewiring in the electrical system. Any repairs should be performed only by HITACHI Service Centers. Should you be determined to make a repair yourself, remember that the green colored wire is the "grounding" wire. Never connect this green wire to a "live" terminal. If you replace the plug on the power cord, be sure to connect the green wire only to the grounding (longest) prong on a 3-prong plug.
If in doubt, call a qualified electrician and have the receptacle checked for ground.

EXTENSION CORD
Use only three-wire extension cords that have three-prong grounding-type plugs and three-pole receptacles that accept the compressor's plug. Replace or repair damaged cord.
Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and name plate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.
Avoid electrical shock hazard. Never use this compressor with a damaged or frayed electrical cord or extension cord. Inspect all electrical cords regularly. Never use in or near water or in any environment where electric shock is possible.
