Air compressor will not reach max psi

by john

Hello,

My air compressor says it has a 135 Max psi, but it only charges up to 120psi. It is a new Ridgid (OF25135CW) air compressor, 1 hp, 2.5 Gal.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Lots of thoughts John... even some my wife wouldn't hit me for! :-)

Check out the pages under troubleshooting about why air compressors won't build pressure, OK?
