CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. Close the drain valve.
2. Check

3. Decrease the amount of air used.
4. Check the air requirement of the
accessory. If it is higher than the
CFM and the pressure supplied by
the compressor, you need a larger
compressor. Most accessories are
rated at 25% of the actual CFM
while running continuously.
5. Check and replace if necessary.

1. If the pressure drops too low, adjust
the regulator while the accessory is

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
1. Tank pressure exceeds the
preset pressure switch limit.
2. The fuse is blown or the circuit
breaker tripped.
The motor will not
run.
3. The check valve is stuck in the
open position.
4. The wire gauge in the cord is
wrong or the extension cord
length is excessive.
5. There are loose electrical
connections.
6. The motor's thermal overload
protection has tripped.
7. The motor, capacitor or safety
valve is defective.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
1. The motor will start automatically
when the tank pressure drops
below the tank cut-in pressure.
2. Replace the blown fuse or reset
the circuit breaker. Do not use a
fuse or circuit breaker with a higher
circuit.
Check for proper fuse; type T fuse
is acceptable.
Check for low voltage and proper
extension cord size.
Disconnect other applications from
the circuit. Operate the compressor
on a dedicated circuit.
3. Remove and clean or replace.
4. Check for proper gauge and
extension cord length.
5. Contact an authorized service
center.
6. Turn the air compressor off, unplug
the power cord and wait until the
motor has cooled down. Plug in
the power cord only after the motor
has cooled down, waiting
the
thermal overload protector has
recovered.
7. Have the compressor serviced by a
qualified technician.
