No, the starter did not come with the compressor. After hearing all the fail rates of the pressure switches for these, I figured I'd buy a dedicated magnetic unit; my mistake was getting the one with the on/off push buttons rather than the P30T which is what is shown in the instruction video...

So the magnetic switch ON button (black push-button on left side) is wired (via the yellow jumper) to 14 NO and this in turn has a yellow jumper running up to A2; and then I have the T1 from the ps connected to A2 as well. The OFF button (right side) is wired via yellow jumper to 1L1. 1L1 also...

Just installed my new Ingersoll Rand 60 gallon air compressor and wired up a Shihlin Magnetic Starter (P35T). I followed the directions for wiring with the help of this Youtube video: My magnetic switch has a green ON and a red OFF button. I pressed the green ON button and the compressor...

I very seldom use the two I have installed; my primary heat is a wood stove. Not having a well-defined means of control with a remote thermostat when I installed these, I simply use the attached knob t-stat to turn them on/off and regulate the temperature. The only time I use them is during...

We've had a lot going on lately, but will try and be brief with an update on the garage progress. Had two loads of 57 gravel delivered and spread them out across the garage and along the outside entrances. We then set the three drains in place and ran the lines out the back wall where they...

Happy Easter! Weather is turning warmer here, after back-to-back snow storms and a 4-day power outage from heavy, wet snow last week. Was able to dig and install the main 3-in. drain line and 3/4-in. water line and set them in place yesterday. Also was able to run my 1/2-in. hardline for...

Thanks everyone. I am leaning toward the 60 gallon tank from North Star. KH6DC de WX4SNO...yeap, sure am! Planning on putting my shack in a separate room in the garage I'm in the process of building...hope to pour concrete slab and get things rolling again in a month or two. Run mostly...

Okay...back during the Christmas season I ordered a new wood stove and some electric heaters for my future garage from Northern Tool. The promo at the time was gift cards toward a future purchase, of which I have $125 to spend at their store. The thought at the time was I was going to use it...

I asked the question over here as well...here's the answer I got: https://www.doityourself.com/forum/electrical-ac-dc/588660-7500-watt-garage-heater-remote-thermostat-wiring.html#post2677208

Thanks dogdog! I wasn't sure of the poster as I read it, then refreshed the page and it was gone! Now the question becomes will two of these heaters heat a 44x30x9.5 garage that has R-11 and R38 insulation or should I be considering adding some additional wall heaters like what cadet makes...

Well, I thought I saw a post from someone with the following connections with the RC840T-240: Blue to L1 Black to L2 or T1 (same anyway) Red to T2 I'll give that a try this summer once I get the garage built and the heaters installed...plan on mounting the Aube in each heater since there's...

Thanks everyone! I noticed the contactor in the diagram but wasn't sure if I needed a high-amp t-stat because of the L2 line being connected to the terminal station and bearing full power or not...glad that I can get away with a lower amp thermostat!! I had been looking at the Aube/Honeywell...

I have two of the ProFusion Heat Ceiling-Mount Shop Heater, 25,590 BTU, 240 Volts, Model# HA24-75M that I purchased from Northern Tool earlier this year for my 3 car garage build. I am having a little bit of a hard time understanding how an external thermostat would be wired to these units. Here...

I bought two of these ProFusion forced air electric heaters from NT and can't seem to find any high-amp thermostats that will fit them: https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200631888_200631888 I know I'll need one thermostat for each, but because they draw up to 32 amps, I can't...

Yes it is! One day it's sunny and 50° and a couple days later it looks like this... My old man and I were able to get a few rows of block laid a couple days ago before it got cold on us. There are only about 55 more 8-in. block left to lay, then two additional rows of 6-in. block on top...

Next week is looking very much below normal in terms of temperature, so I decided to rush and dig the footers the past couple days to take advantage of the warm spell before a strong cold front sweeps through next Tuesday. 1/2-in. rebar and put in a will-call order for some 3000 psi...

Yeap, sure am. I will have a 10-ft drain between the two bays in the garage and on the other side I will have a 6-in. drain underneath the UTV/SxS. Also have a small drain in the compressor closet in case there is a leak with the water storage tank or I need to drain the compressor. Dug two...

Laid out the corners for the garage. Tuesday my father-in-law and I went and picked up two pallets of 6-in. cinder block for the knee walls...240 in total. I took my trailer to my cousins and got enough hardie board to do three sides of the building...will do the back in Smart Siding. Plan...

It's been almost two weeks since I submitted my application for a building permit and I hadn't received any word about it. Our county takes three days for the review process, but since I hadn't heard anything, I called them up Monday. Apparently they were all out for the thanksgiving holiday...

I used Chief Architect Premier X4, which is an older version. I think they are up to version X9 now or something. I've had it for years and used it to plan my house out. Not too difficult to use for simple layouts but it can get very complex if you know what you're doing.
