<p>Dean,</p>
<p>If you let the tank bleed down enough for the switch to cut in
and then watch the pressure gauge, at what point does the pressure
quit climbing?</p>
<p>Also if it is getting close to the 135 PSI reading try giving the
switch assembly a gentle tap or two to see if you can jar it loose
and get it to flip off. At that point you should hear a short
discharge of air as the bleeder pipe empties the cylinder heads.
Then all should be quiet. If that is the case replacement switch
assemblies are not that expensive. <br>
</p>
<p>I don't think my Husky ever got all the way up to 135, but would
cut off at about 130 ish. Never knew if this was a gauge issue or
if the switch was set just a little low. The adjuster screw on the
switch was epoxied in place to keep people from messing with it.</p>
<p>Too bad you are not closer, I would make you a really good deal
on a replacement pump, motor and switch assy!</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:windowtext">Need some
help relative to a Husky 60 gallon , 7 HP air compressor. I
am shop sitting the shop in AZ of my recently deceased
friend until his three sons can decide what they are going
to do with the 10 tractors, 5 highly modified garden
tractors and a fully stocked shop with a huge quantity of
hand tools. In return for doing the shop sitting I get to
use the shop to do the work on my 1935 JD B and JD Garden
Tractor. Upon the very first entry I noticed the air
compressor was running too long. I shut the breaker off and
am not trying to figure out of there is something I can do
to fix it. My first thought is the pressure switch isn’t
working right. But…. I have never worked on this
version. Attached is the picture of the air compressor. I
have not yet found a operators manual or service manual to
guide me through some trouble shooting. I am pretty sure
this was working at least up to the end of August and then
my friend got confined to the house due to illness and
eventually died October 6. I arrived in the middle of
November to take first use of the shop again. So the
compressor sat unused for at least couple months which may
have something to do with it not working now. It does pump
up to 135 lbs pressure but does not shut off. I set my
compressor at home to shit off at 120 PSI. So 135PSI seems
high to me. If I open the pressure switch is there some
adjustments in there or is it maybe just stuck that needs to
be unstuck? Anyone with experience with this brand of air
compressor? I don’t want to create more expense because I
don’t know what I am doing. Here is a picture. Note: The
red dial on top of the pressure control does work in that it
shuts down the compressor when moved to the Off position.
When moved to the Auto position it just continues running.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
