    I’m so glad I found your post. Very helpful info. I was able to reduce my factory set psi of 175 sn to 150. My unit has a max of 150 so…
    I think you possibly saved my bacon.
    Good video!

    OMG, thank you! I just got an Ingersoll Rand Garage Mate compressor and couldn’t find any way to adjust my pressure switch! It was supposed to cut out at 135 PSI and it was cutting out at 125 PSI. Cut on is 105, which is fine. I could get the pressure up to 135 but it raised my cut in to 115. Now I know ro use the Philips head screw to being the cut out and back the slotted screw back counter clockwise. (Mine has a slotted for the main screw and Philips in place of your plastic screw)

    yes, i saw that video and said the same thing. so i have a 1 year old Harbor Freight 10 gallon that just this past week stop cutting in at max PSI and the pressure valve releases. I have probably used this compressor 8 to 10 times in the past year. Are all the pressure switches the same with the brass/plastic screw?

    • @joannzimmerman-vanbuskirk4842
      @joannzimmerman-vanbuskirk4842 2 роки тому

      I have two metal screws on mine. One with a flat head the other has phillips. I am guessing the one on the right is for max psi and the one on the left is to increase cut in. It is important to note what max pressure your compressor is capable of and be sure you do not get a switch above that or you will be blowing the release valve. Also, if the pressure switch gets moisture in it, I understand that will make it quit working.

    So, on the craftsman air compressors, the lid only contains the wiring diagram. This is because they intentionally leave out all such instructions on their user manual as well. Craftsman air compressors are set with factory cut in/cut out, and are not intended to be adjusted by the user. They even put a big glob of hat glue over the brass screw to try hiding that setting.

    So if my compressor won't turn off do I turn the screw counterclockwise?

    • @gadasavideos8564
      @gadasavideos8564  20 днів тому +1

      @TRUDabs2 I would try counter-clockwise on the second screw in the procedure. Problem could be compressor isn't capable of achieving the cutoff setting. Has it ever shut off?

    • @TRUDabs2
      @TRUDabs2 19 днів тому

      @@gadasavideos8564 The actual pressure ends up exceeding the cutoff setting. I'll try clockwise before ripping it apart to see if it's a worn switch part. Thanks.

    • @gadasavideos8564
      @gadasavideos8564  10 місяців тому +1

      Maybe note cutout psi. Then raise both with first screw that moves both until cut in is where you want. Then reverse 2nd screw to see if you can reduce cutout back to what you noted without affecting cut in. Might depend if compressor is designed for cut in and out that you want to achieve

    What's the thing on the right do with the small 1/4" line?

    • @kenhilson786
      @kenhilson786 2 роки тому

      That's the pressure release. Whenever the switch stops the compressor or you turn the switch off it releases pressure from above the piston. Makes startup easier.

    • @dekurvajo

      I heard there are some cutin/cutout regulators where you can only adjust the cut in pressure. The cut off you can't.

    One of those constant throat clearers i hear.. gurd a lot of the time is the culprit of that as well as albuteral intake if asthmatic.. my dad did it all the time which annoyed the hell outta me is why i bring it up. He started taking the purple pill for his acid reflux he didnt know or think he had but appareny at night is when it happened and ended up eating a lot of the lining of his throat away over the years. Theres a name for that condition but it slips my mind. He ended up getting throat cancer in his age but isnt what took him out.. heart did that.. so you sound younger and may want to look into that unless youve been sick recently and just recovering.. never hurts to check.. unless you dont want to know.. which is what i think gave my dad his heart attack. He told the damn doctors he didnt want to know if he had cancer or not, said he wanted to be tested for any other issues that couod be causing his throat to swell.. but they told him and a week later his heart freaked out on him. As goes life.. sadly..
