It is normal for some pressure drop to occur when an
accessory is used, adjust the regulator as instructed
in 'Adjusting Operating Pressure' if pressure drop is
excessive.
NOTE: Adjust the regulated pressure under flow conditions
while accessory is being used.
Decrease amount of air usage.
Check the accessory air requirement. If it is higher than the
CFM or pressure supplied by your air compressor, a larger
compressor is needed to operate accessory.
Replace air hose.
Contact a DEWALT factory service center or a DEWALT
authorized service center.
Tighten fittings.
Contact a DEWALT factory service center or a DEWALT
authorized service center.
See Motor Overload under 'Motor Overload Protector'.
Check for proper gauge wire and cord length. See table

1. Check fuse box for blown fuse and replace as
necessary. Reset circuit breaker. Do not use a fuse or
circuit breaker with higher rating than that specified for
your particular branch circuit.

3. Check for low voltage conditions and/or proper
extension cord.
4. Disconnect the other electrical appliances from circuit
or operate the compressor on its own branch circuit.
Motor will start automatically when tank pressure drops
below cut-in pressure of pressure switch.
