How to troubleshoot low pressure or not enough air from Power Fist Air Compressor?
- R
  robinhuntAug 6, 2025
  If your Power Fist Air Compressor has low pressure, isn't providing enough air, or doesn't stop, several factors could be responsible. Check if the tank drain valve is open (close it). Inspect fittings for leaks using soapy water (tighten or reseal, but don't overtighten). Ensure the air intake isn't restricted (clean or replace the filter). Reduce prolonged or excessive air use. Verify the compressor is large enough for your needs. Look for holes in the air hose (replace if necessary), tank leaks (replace the tank immediately), blown seals (replace seals), valve leaks (replace valve), or a leaking/worn piston (replace piston).

Why Power Fist Air Compressor motor will not run?
- H
  hreevesAug 14, 2025
  The Power Fist Air Compressor motor might fail to run due to several reasons. It could be that the tank pressure exceeds the preset pressure switch limit, in which case the motor will start automatically when the tank pressure drops below the cut-in pressure. Other potential causes include a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker (reset after cooling), a stuck check valve (clean or replace it), an inadequate extension cord (replace with a shorter, heavier gauge cord), loose electrical connections, paint spray on internal motor parts, or a defective motor. For loose connections, paint issues, or a defective motor, contact Princess Auto Ltd. for assistance.

What to do if Power Fist Air Compressor pressure relief valve opens?
- K
  Kelli PerezAug 21, 2025
  If the pressure relief valve on your Power Fist Air Compressor opens, it's likely because the tank pressure has exceeded the normal operating pressure or the pressure switch is stuck. The solution is to replace the pressure switch.

Why does the regulated pressure gauge reading drop when using a Power Fist Air Compressor accessory?
- J
  Judy FisherAug 28, 2025
  A drop in the regulated pressure gauge reading while using an air accessory with your Power Fist Air Compressor can be normal. However, if the pressure drops too low, adjust the regulator while the accessory is in use. If the issue persists, the compressor might not be large enough for the accessory. Check the air requirement of the accessory and compare it to the CFM and pressure supplied by the compressor. You may need a larger compressor.
