Pressure in tank won't rise

I have a HUSKY H1820F compressor. My tank
pressure gauge reads 60psi. It gets no higher. My pressure gauge goes up the
required MAX of 155psi cut out Min 125 cut in. Should my tank pressure gauge
register higher?

Anthony, this is what I'm understanding. Your compressor, when working properly, cuts in at 125 PSI and cuts out at 155 PSI. The tank gauge has enough range to display this.

Your compressor tank gauge is showing that the pressure in the tank is 60 PSI, and the compressor keeps running, but the pressure doesn't rise, is this correct?

Click the Troubleshooting button on the navigation bar. Read the menu on the page you land on. Click on "won't build pressure" and have a read.

Cheers,

Bill
