This thing is (JUNK!!!) I have had this compressor for 5+ yrs and have used it maybe 40-50 hrs if that in 5 years. The compressor starts very hard and pops my main circuit breaker every time. Also when the tank capacity runs low and the compressor has to re start to fill the tank it starts very hard if it starts at all and once again pops the circuit breaker.

The compressor is poor for automotive air tools that require long periods of use and run time continuously. It loses pressure and tank capacity way too fast and the air tools always struggle to stay at full power. This Craftsman compressor is junk!!! I will stick with the less expensive better quality and performance compressors I have used in the auto shops for 20 years such as (Ingersoll-Randand Campbell Hausfeld).
