Can I use this compressor for continuous-duty applications?

Troubleshooting

Check the power supply, ensure the power switch is on, and inspect the motor for any obstructions.

Compressor runs but doesn't build pressure

Check for air leaks, inspect the pressure switch, and ensure the safety valve is not releasing air.
