3. No power at outlet.
4. Fuse blown.
5. Building power supply circuit tripped
or blown fuse.
6. Cord wire size is too small or
cord is too long to properly
power compressor.
7. Compressor needs service.
Compressor not
1. Air filters need cleaning/replacing.
building enough
air pressure
2. Check Valve needs service.
3. Compressor not large enough for
job.
4. Loose fittings.
5. Hose or hose connections
too narrow.
6. High altitude reducing air output.

1. No problem. Compressor will start when needed.
2. Check that cord is plugged in securely.
3. Reset circuit breaker, or have outlet
serviced by a qualified technician.
4. Check and replace Fuse as needed.
5. Reset circuit or replace fuse. Check for low voltage
conditions. It may be necessary to disconnect
other electrical appliances from the circuit or
move the compressor to its own circuit.
6. Use larger diameter or shorter extension cord or
eliminate extension cord. See Recommended Wire
Gauge for Extension Cords in Safety section.
7. Have unit inspected by a qualified technician.
1. Check inlet and outlet filters.
Clean and/or replace as needed.
2. Have technician clean or replace, as needed.
3. Check if accessory CFM is met by Compressor.
If Compressor cannot supply enough air flow (CFM),
you need a larger Compressor.
4. Reduce air pressure, then check all fittings with
a soap solution for air leaks and tighten as needed.
Do not overtighten.
5. Replace with wider hose and/or hose connections.
6. Higher altitudes require compressors with greater output.
1. Move unit to cleaner environment.
2. Increase cord size or use shorter length extension
cord, or eliminate extension cord. See Recommended
Wire Gauge for Extension Cords in Safety section.
3. Reposition unit on a level surface.
1. Reduce air pressure, then check all fittings with a soap
solution for air leaks and tighten as needed.
Do not overtighten.
2. Check if accessory CFM is met by Compressor.
If Compressor doesn't reach accessory
CFM, you need a larger Compressor.
Reduce air pressure, then check all fittings with a soap solution
for air leaks and tighten as needed. Do not overtighten.
Install inline air filter/dryer, and/or relocate
to less humid environment.
Pull on test ring of safety valve. If it still pops, replace.
Reduce air pressure, then check all fittings with a soap solution
for air leaks and tighten as needed.
Do not overtighten.
Have tank replaced by a qualified technician.
Drain moisture from tank daily to prevent future corrosion.
