Replacing the Kuoyuh 88 Series Circuit Breaker with a Brute 074004 10 Gal Air Compressor

My Brute Air Compressor was throwing the reset switch off every 10 seconds during normal use. After checking the motor and changing the oil, I determined that the problem must be the Kuoyuh 15A's reset switch tripping at less than 15 amps. I searched Revain for a Kuoyuh 15A switch and it was one of several hits. I ordered it and found that it fits perfectly. Both a stainless steel nut and a nylon knurled nut were included to mount the switch - I chose the knurled wheel as it was easier to mount. The Blue Sea switch fits perfectly into the mounting hole, and the wires from the supercharger motor fit perfectly into the two pins. When I turned on the air compressor, the engine started normally again. He charged the tank to 95psi and left it charged, an exceptionally happy troubleshooting ending. All I needed was a #2 Phillips screwdriver to pry the black shroud out of the way to access the Kuoyuh motor protection switch and a mini crescent wrench. to remove the nut from the Kyohuh device. If your Brute's switch trips frequently, check the oil level and make sure the driveshaft rotates freely during normal operation, then order this replacement. A slight resistance when turning the shaft is normal. The switch is designed for 32 VDC and 125/250 VAC. The DC value does not matter. Nice switch!
