    Default CPLC 7060V kicking out Problems

    I have a model CPLC7060V (I believe Type 1) 60 gallon, 135 psi compressor. When the air tank is completely empty, the unit starts up properly and builds air pressure until it reaches the factory-set cut-out point. When I begin using the air and the pressure drops to the point of the cut-in setpoint, the unit attempts to restart but the motor apparently overloads and kicks out the 220V breaker. If I drain the tank completely once again of all air, reset the breaker and turn the unit back on, it will restart and run normally once again but again, when I'm using the air it won't restart but just kicks out the breaker. I installed a new check valve (part A19715) but nothing changed....same problem. Does anyone know if there are other things that can cause this same problem?

    It sounds like your starter capacitor is bad.This gives the motor a burst of current to get it started when their is a load on it.The motor doesn't need help when the tank is not charged with air. Hope this helps.
