I came across this Sanborn compressor for free and all it needed was a replacement regulator knob that I was able to get off ebay or Amazon.




Now I’m in need of a belt (its a belt driven/oil bathed unit), since i’m not the original owner & only received this Sanborn air compressor for free, just not totally sure the belt on it is correct and would really like to find a Owner/Repair Manual for this unit.
Sanborn Magna Force
Model No.= M109C400-20
Motor HP= 4Hp
Phase 1, 115 Volts, 15 Amp, 60 Hz
Tank Size= 20 Gallon
Tank W.P.= 135 psi
I’m in the middle of cleaning it up due to the regulator knob and i just bought a replacement belt from what was on there which was a “Bando Power King A-51 Ban/Set belt”

Belt

Nice score for the price.
If it sits in the grooves on your pulleys, good ’nuff.
But if not, then a turn at the belt store with measurements of said grooves should get you what it needs.

I need a manual too
Thank You Doug, I really do appreciate the looking out. Something I forgot to mention, in my initial Post/Question. I came across the one you mentioned already online. I was NOT able to find a manual that didn’t involve paying because you never know if what you need is in there. Don’t want to throw $$ away.
Thank You,
