CAUSEPROBLEM CORRECTION
Motor will not run or

Motor overload protection
switch has tripped.
Tank pressure exceeds
pressure switch “cut-in”
pressure.
Wrong gauge wire or length of
extension cord.
Check valve stuck open.
Loose electrical connections.
Possible defective motor or
starting capacitor.
Paint spray on internal motor
parts.
Fuse blown, circuit breaker
tripped.
Pressure release valve on
pressure switch has not
unloaded head pressure.
Let motor cool off and overload
switch will automatically reset.
Motor will start automatically when
tank pressure drops below “cut-in”
pressure of pressure switch.
Check for proper gauge wire and
cord length.
Remove and clean, or replace.

1. Check fuse box for blown fuse
and replace, if necessary. Reset
circuit breaker. Do not use a
fuse or circuit breaker with
higher rating than that specified
for your particular branch circuit.
2. Check for proper fuse; only time
delay fuses are acceptable.
3. Check for low voltage
conditions and/or proper
extension cord.
4. Disconnect the other electrical
appliances from circuit or
operate the compressor on its
own branch circuit.
Bleed the line by pushing the lever
on the pressure switch to the “off”
position; if the valve does not open,
replace it.
Pressure reading on
the regulated
pressure gauge
drops when an
accessory is used.
It is normal for “some”
pressure drop to occur.
If there is an excessive amount of
pressure drop when the accessory
is used, adjust the regulator
following the instructions on page
7.
NOTE: Adjust the regulated
pressure under flow conditions
(while accessory is being used).
