What to do if KingCraft Air Compressor is not supplying enough air?
- C
  Crystal WileyAug 18, 2025
  If your KingCraft Air Compressor isn't supplying enough air to operate accessories, it could be due to several reasons. You might be using air excessively for prolonged periods, or the compressor may not be large enough for your air requirements. Other potential causes include a restricted air intake filter, a hole in the hose, a restricted check valve, or air leaks. To address this, decrease your air usage and verify that the accessory's air requirement doesn't exceed the compressor's SCFM or pressure. Clean or replace the air intake filter.

To resolve this, let the motor cool off to allow the overload switch to reset automatically. Ensure you are using the correct gauge wire and cord length. Inspect and clean or replace the check valve.
