Troubleshooting

Compressor won't start.

Check the power supply and ensure the outlet is working. Also, verify that the pressure switch is set correctly and the motor has cooled down if it has overheated. If it still doesn't start, consult the user manual for further troubleshooting.

Compressor runs but doesn't build pressure.

Check for air leaks in the hoses, fittings, and tank. Inspect the pressure switch and safety valve for any issues. Examine the intake valve and clean or replace it if necessary.

Low air pressure.

Check for leaks, and adjust the pressure regulator to the desired output. Make sure the air tool being used is compatible with the compressor's output.
