going off of the sheet from Ford, I should be able to run my brand new, out of the box 1.5 hp air compressor. I have the 7.2 KW generator on board.
at first, with an empty tank, it ran and filled up the tank. when i used my air tools for a bit, the air compressor went to turn on, but it turned off the generator.
As this is now my second 1.5 HP air compressor (other one was old) I did some troubleshooting. Turns out that if there is any pressure on the tank, it will not recharge the tank.
I took a screen shot of when the tank was attempting to recharge and it only drew less than 1300 watts.
Has anyone else successfully recharged their 1.5 HP air compressor, or will the tank always need to be empty to refill?
