Compressor shuts off early
I got a Campbell Hausfeld from Home Leper and the day after the warranty expired it started to shut off at 75 psi. It's supposed to fill to 150 psi. I took it to a tool guy and he said there is nothing wrong with it. It's an oiless 5 hp 26 gallon. I use it mostly for taking off wheels and blowing out my inground sprinkler lines in the fall. Any one have any ideas? Thanks

Re: Compressor shuts off early
there is a pressure switch with air and wires running to it take the cover off it and it should have a adjustment on it unplug the 120 volts before working on it if your a clutz

I've replaced the pressure switch and it still does the same thing. I think i'm going to go out and get me a 220 volt oiled one. Thanks
