GLOSSARY
Become familiar with these terms before operating the unit.
CFM: Cubic feet per minute.
SCFM: Standard cubic feet per minute; a unit of measure of air delivery.
PSIG: Pounds per square inch gauge; a unit of measure of pressure.
Code Certification: Products that bear one or more of the following marks: UL, CUL,
ETL, CETL,
CSA/US have been evaluated by OSHA certified independent safety
laboratories and meet the applicable Underwriters Laboratories Standards for Safety.
CSA: Electrical products sold in Canada are required to be certified to the applicable
CSA standard (s). Canadian Standards Association (CSA) is a standards writing and
safety testing organization. Products that are CSA certified have been evaluated and
tested and found to meet or exceed the applicable CSA standard (s) for safety and
electrical performance.
Cut-In Pressure: While the motor is off, air tank pressure drops as you continue to
use your accessory. When the tank pressure drops to a certain low level the motor will
restart automatically. The low pressure at which the motor automatically restarts is
called “cut-in” pressure.
Cut-Out Pressure: When an air compressor is turned on and begins to run, air
pressure in the air tank begins to build. It builds to a certain high pressure before the
motor automatically shuts off - protecting your air tank from pressure higher than its
capacity. The high pressure at which the motor shuts off is called “cut-out” pressure.
Branch Circuit: Circuit carrying electricity from electrical panel to outlet.
Model No. FSCP200
Voltage/Hertz/ Phase 120V/60/1

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. In the event of a short circuit,
grounding reduces the risk of shock by providing an escape wire
for the electric current. This air compressor must be properly grounded.
The portable air compressor is equipped with a cord
having a grounding wire with an appropriate
grounding plug (see illustrations). The plug must be
used with an outlet that has been installed and
grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
1. The cord set and plug with this unit contains a
grounding pin. This plug MUST be used with a
grounded outlet.
IMPORTANT: The outlet being used must be
installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
2. Make sure the outlet being used has the same configuration as the grounded
plug. DO NOT USE AN ADAPTER.
When used outside of the United States of America a conversion
kit may be required for local use.
3. Inspect the plug and cord before each use. Do not use if there are signs of
damage.
4. If these grounding instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to
whether the compressor is properly grounded, have the installation checked by a
qualified electrician.
IMPROPER GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If it does not fit the available
outlet, a correct outlet should be installed by a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug MUST be made by a qualified electrician.

Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to the Parts Manual for the voltage and minimum branch circuit requirements.
Certain air compressors can be operated on a 15 amp circuit if the following conditions
are met.
1. Voltage supply is 108V-132V AC at the outlet.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs (lights, appliances, etc.).
3. Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker minimum or 15 amp time delay
fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only
time delay fuses marked “D” for Canada and "T" for US.
4. Extension cords comply with specifications.
If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the compressor
repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be necessary to operate it from a
20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to change the cord set.
Extension Cords
Using extension cords is not recommended. The use of extension cords will cause
voltage to drop resulting in power loss to the motor and overheating.
Instead of using an extension cord, increase the working reach of the air hose by
attaching another length of hose to its end. Attach additional lengths of hose as
needed.
If an extension cord must be used, be sure it is:
• a 3-wire extension cord that has a 3-blade grounding plug, and a 3-slot receptacle
that will accept the plug on the product
• in good condition
• no longer than 50 feet
• 14 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire size increases as gauge number decreases. 12
AWG, 10 AWG, and 8 AWG may also be used. DO NOT USE 16 OR 18 AWG.)

OPERATION
Know Your Air Compressor
READ THIS INSTRUCTION MANUAL AND SAFETY RULES BEFORE OPERATING
YOUR UNIT. Compare the illustrations with your unit to familiarize yourself with the
location of various controls and adjustments. Save this manual for future reference.
Description of Operation
Become familiar with these controls before operating the unit.
Auto/On/Off Switch: Set switch in
AUTO/ON position to provide automatic
power to the pressure switch and OFF
to remove power at the end of each
use.
Pressure Switch (not shown): The
pressure switch automatically starts the
motor when the air tank pressure drops
below the factory set "cut-in" pressure.
It stops the motor when the air tank
pressure reaches the factory set "cut-
out" pressure.
Safety Valve: If the pressure switch
does not shut off the air compressor at its "cut-out" pressure setting, the safety valve
will protect against high pressure by "popping out" at its factory set pressure (slightly
higher than the pressure switch "cut-out" setting).
Outlet Pressure Gauge: The outlet pressure gauge indicates the air pressure
available at the outlet side of the regulator. This pressure is controlled by the regulator
and is always less than or equal to the tank pressure.
Tank Pressure Gauge: The tank pressure gauge indicates the reserve air pressure in
the tank.
Regulator: Controls the air pressure shown on the outlet pressure gauge. Turn the
knob clockwise to increase pressure and counterclockwise to decrease pressure.
Drain Valve: The drain valve is located at the base of the air
tank and is used to drain condensation at the end of each use.
Cooling System (not shown): This compressor contains an
advanced design cooling system. At the heart of this cooling
system is an engineered fan. It is perfectly normal for this fan
to blow air through the vent holes in large amounts. You know
that the cooling system is working when air is being expelled.
Air Compressor Pump (not shown): Compresses air into the air tank. Working air is
not available until the compressor has raised the air tank pressure above that required
at the air outlet.
Check Valve (not shown): When the air compressor is operating, the check valve is
"open", allowing compressed air to enter the air tank. When the air compressor
reaches "cut-out" pressure, the check valve "closes", allowing air pressure to remain
inside the air tank.
Motor Overload Protector (not shown): The motor has an automatic reset thermal
overload protector. If the motor overheats for any reason, the overload protector will
shut off the motor. The motor must be allowed to cool down before restarting. The
compressor will automatically restart after the motor cools.
The motor will automatically restart without warning if plugged
in electrical outlet and "Auto/On/Off" switch is in the
"AUTO/ON" position.

Lisez et comprenez tous les avertissements et directives
d’utilisation avant d’utiliser un outil ou un équipement. Lorsque vous utilisez des outils
ou un équipement, des précautions de base en matière de sécurité doivent être suivies
afin de réduire le risque de blessure personnelle. Un fonctionnement, un entretien ou
une modification inappropriés des outils ou de l’équipement pourraient résulter en de
graves blessures ou en des dommages à la propriété. Certaines applications sont
conçues pour des outils et de l’équipement spécifiques. Black & Decker recommande
fortement NE PAS modifier ce produit ou de NE PAS l’utiliser pour une application
autre que celle pour laquelle il a été conçu.
Certaines poussières produites par les activités de ponçage,
sciage, meulage, perçage et autres activités de construction peuvent contenir des
produits chimiques pouvant causer le cancer, des anomalies congénitales ou d'autres
problèmes liés aux fonctions reproductrices. Voici quelques exemples de ces produits
chimiques :
• le plomb contenu dans les peintures à base de plomb;
• la silice cristalline de la brique, du ciment et d'autres produits de maçonnerie;
• l'arsenic de cuivre et de chrome provenant du bois traité chimiquement.
Les risques reliés à l'exposition à ces poussières varient selon la fréquence à laquelle
vous travaillez avec ce type de matériaux.
Afin de réduire votre exposition à ces produits chimiques : travaillez dans un endroit
bien ventilé et portez un équipement de sécurité approuvé comme un masque anti-
poussières conçu spécialement pour filtrer les particules microscopiques.
•Évitez le contact prolongé avec les poussières produites par les activités de
ponçage, sciage, meulage, perçage et autres activités de construction. Portez
des vêtements de protection et lavez les parties du corps exposées avec une
solution d'eau et de savon. Le fait de laisser la poussière pénétrer par la bouche et
les yeux, ou de la laisser reposer sur la peau, peut promouvoir l'absorption de produits
chimiques nocifs.

CONSERVEZ CES DIRECTIVES
Un fonctionnement, un entretien ou une modification inappropriés de ce produit
pourraient résulter en de graves blessures ou en des dommages à la propriété. Lisez
et comprenez tous les avertissements et toutes les directives d’utilisation avant de vous

Risque d’explosion ou d’incendie
Ce qui peut se produire Comment l’éviter
DANGER
Il est normal que des contacts
électriques dans le moteur et le
manocontacteur fassent une étincelle.
Si une étincelle électrique provenant du
compresseur entre en contact avec des
vapeurs inflammables, elle peut
s’enflammer et causer un incendie ou
une explosion.
Le fait de limiter les ouvertures
d’aération de compresseur causera une
importante surchauffe et pourrait causer
un incendie.
Le fonctionnement sans surveillance
de ce produit pourrait résulter en des
blessures personnelles ou en des
dommages à la propriété. Afin de
réduire le risque d’incendie, ne laissez
pas le compresseur fonctionner sans
surveillance.
Faites toujours fonctionner le
compresseur dans une zone bien aérée
sans matière combustible, essence ou
vapeur de solvant.
Si vous aspergez des matériaux
inflammables, placez le compresseur à
au moins 20 pieds de la zone en
traitement. Il est possible que vous ayez
besoin d’une longueur de tuyau
additionnelle.
Entreposez les matières inflammables
dans un endroit sécuritaire, éloigné du
compresseur.
Ne placez jamais des objets contre le
compresseur ou sur celui-ci. Faites
fonctionner le compresseur dans un
endroit aéré à au moins 30 cm (12 po) du
mur ou de l’obstruction qui pourrait limiter
le débit d’air frais dans les ouvertures
d’aération. Faites fonctionner le compresseur
dans un endroit propre, sec et bien aéré.
Ne faites pas fonctionner l’appareil à
l’intérieur dans un endroit difficile d’accès.
Soyez toujours présent lorsque le produit
est en marche.
Débranchez toujours l’alimentation
électrique en mettant le levier du
manocontacteur à la position arrêt et
vidangez le réservoir chaque jour ou
après chaque utilisation.
