Default Sears air compressor throws breaker

I have come in possession of a Craftsman model 919.165200, 5 hp, 20
gallon air compressor that when turned on runs for a few seconds then
throws a breaker in my shop. Anyone have a clue as to why or how to
repair? Anyone come across this problem before?

TIA

Jerry


Old breaker? Cycled too often? I would check if a true overload was
happening.

Get an electrician, is shouldn't be expensive.
