Shop/house breaker open
Reset shop/house breaker, determining why problem
happened.
Current limiting protector open
Wait 5 minutes for the thermal fuse to reset.
Bad pressure switch
Replace pressure switch.
Tank is at maximum pressure
Compressor will turn on when tank pressure drops to cut-
in pressure.
Compressor was turned off at the mains
before the onboard switch.
Turn off the onboard switch (which releases line pressure)
and turn on from the onboard switch.
Motor hums but cannot run or runs
slowly
Low voltage
Check with voltmeter.

compressor shuts off
Loose connections (fittings, tubing, etc.)
Check all connections with soap and water solution and
tighten.
Loose drain valve
Tighten drain valve.
Check valve leaking
Take compressor to service centre.
DANGER
Do not disassemble check valve, tank drain valve or

Excessive moisture in discharge air
Excessive water in air tank
Drain tank.
High humidity
Move to area of less humidity; use air line filter.
Compressor runs continuously
Defective pressure switch
Take compressor to service centre.
Excessive air usage
Take compressor to service centre.
Decrease air usage; compressor not large enough for
