Ok, I have more questions than answers 1 i hooked 220 to L1 and L2 and grounded the motor Nothing! :headscrat 2 next I rewired the motor for 110v and switched L1 hot, L2 neutral then Voilà it runs great! I adjusted The switch to shut off at 140 & on at 90 psi :thumbup: 3. O wait...

Ok! It looks like the motor is wired for 220v clock wise rotation ! :lol_hitti Should I keep it at 220 or 110 ? Also sending power to L1 & L2 are hot wires and a neutral wire can I just use aground wire ? :shocking: Thanks for the help guys

Oooooo! :bowdown: Ok, this is what I need to know but please teach how to read The wires. It shows the wires going to “line” and “tape” ?:headscrat What does that mean ??? Thanks for the help

Ok The motor looks to be original to the compressor The voltage is normal 110V on a12 gauge wire circuit I can manually kick the centrifugal switch from the start to the run capacitor and the motor Doesn’t have the torque to keep running and stops. I’m not running an extension cord just...

1. I don’t know if it ever ran correct ? I bought it from an estate but when I plugged it in it ran but I never totally filled the tank. 2 yes it starts fine but it never comes off the start capacitor with the compressor hooked up It will fill to about 20psi then starts to die! I can manually...

Please help I have a Leeson 1 phase 1740 Rpm 1.5HP motor on my air compressor, when it’s under load the centrifugal switch won’t kick in ? When i disconnect the belt on The compressor it runs fine. I have replaces the both run and start capacitors. It seams like it needs more power ? The...
