Questions & Answers

Question for anyone who OWNS this compressor: Does it 'trip' your 15 Amp circuit breaker?

I know its stated 'draw' is 13.2 amps, but just wanted to hear from some Owners, Thanks!
Asked by: NightSky
Used it a lot. Has not tripped a breaker. I don’t use an extension cord with it.

Is this MAC5200 as quiet as the Makita MAC2400?

Is there a decibel specification for this unit. I am also considering the MAC2400 which is rated at 79dB which is a large selling point for my shop.
Asked by: Gil
technically, the 5200 is 10db more, and to me it's a noticeable difference. the 2400 lower 'rumble' to it, but this is based on web videos, I have not listen to either actual unit.

Will this compressor power an impact wrench for use on compact tractors and related equipment?

I plan to use this for tire inflation and removal of parts (mower blades, tiller blades) and tires on my subcompact tractor. I want to know if it has the air flow to provide sufficient torque to remove the bolts on this kind of equipment.
Asked by: TimW
Tim the answer is no. While there enough pressure and stored volume of art the compressor will not stay up with most industrial air tools. They are great for up to 3 nail guns and inflating tires but are not a replacement for a true 3hp compressor. These are well built units that will stand up to contrition site abuse.

5.2 Gal. 3.0 HP Electric Single Tank Air Compressor is rated 4.5 out of 5 by 266.
Rated 2 out of 5 by from Seemed like it was going to be a work horse, but broke quickly. Seemed like this was going to be a great little workhorse. Bought it on-line. Took 10 days to get here. After adding the oil and breaking it in for 30 minutes without pressurizing the tank, turned it off let it cool. Then, closed up the tank, and started it up to begin to use it. It got up to 40 pounds sputtered and started sounding sick. Tried it a couple of times, same result. So I had to take 3 hours off work to run it to the warranty service center for a look-see. The one listed in the owners manual was out of business for 6 years; so had to call the Makita folks who gave another service location. Took it to them in North Hollywood; they said they're busy and it would be about 10 days to tell me what's wrong and if there is a repair, another 3-weeks to get parts. Makita will not let them have an inventory of parts; so they have to order everything and wait to get it to repair under warranty. Bummer! Now I have to wait a month or so to get it back. I am disappointed. Jury is still out on this one.

My Makita Mac2000 Started to have problems, I could have fix it for less then $100.00, But after more then 25 Years of Hard Use! I wanted to upgrade. You see the Mac2000 is 4 Gal. 2 HP. that puts out 6.1 CMF. at 90 Psi. But draws 19.8 Amps! I would always have to put it on a 20 Amp Breaker by it's self, I couldnot even use light bulb with it! This Mac5200 Produces more for less Power, O.K. it's not as Compact as the Mac2000. It works Great and Produces more Air then Compressors 1/2 it's size! and to Dummy that said the Tank is too Small! You Can buy an Air Tank and convert it to a Boost Tank! That's What I did, I Converted a 11 Gal. Air tank to Supply my Hand Held Sand Blaster! I run out of Sand Before I Run Low on Air!

I bought the MAC5200 prior to moving overseas and had it shipped new in the box without testing it. I got to my duty station and set it up, then plugged it in. It ran fine for about 60 seconds and then a puff of black smoke appeared right before the compressor shut off. Now I can't take it back to Home Depot, because they don't have a store located in New Zealand. Shipping it back was not an option either. My only option was to troubleshoot the problem myself. I found corrosion on the centrifugal switch and a blown start capacitor. I ordered the parts from M&M Tool Parts ($72.28) and installed them. The compressor works fine now. I believe that the centrifugal switch was improperly adjusted at the factory, which caused it not to open the start capacitor switch. The start capacitor overcharged and blew. This would not have been that big of a deal if I was back in the USA, because I would have just taken the compressor back to the store. Either way, this is not the kind of quality that I expect from Makita.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Value in a Compact Compressor I bought this primarily to operate a plasma cutter that needed about 5cfm at 60 psi. It is working very nicely. The cutter always has plenty of air helping to make my cuts efficient and quick. It has a roomy storage compartment for all those necessary compressor parts such as quick connects, an easily accessible drain valve, and lots of hose storage. I like that it's oil lubricated and although it's kind of loud it has a deep, throaty sound rather than the high pitched whine you get with oil-free units -- it's just easier on my ears and not so aggravating. The tires are substantial and I like that you can pick it up at the front or back to roll it around. I did a lot of shopping but couldn't find another compressor that delivered almost the same amount of cfm at 90psi as at 40psi and that had a compact tank. So far, I'm very pleased.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from really nice unit/price point had to buy one for the field so after checking a lot of units i decided on this one primarily for one reason--cfm--cubic feet per minute. this is the primary reason you want an air compressor in the first place if you're a professional. it fills up fast and can keep up a lot better than the most common units at this price point. i've seen them with a lot less cfm's at a higher price. at the time i was also looking for a compressor with overall dimensions that would fit into my 2013 ford fusion trunk. i cut off the hose hooks on the handle so once it folded down it fit snug and still left room for small tool box between unit and the back of the trunk. weight is manageable but could be lighter, with magnesium motor parts maybe. has a storage shallow compartment just above the gauges for your fittings, rags or whatever. once on the ground, you can fold up the handle and it works like a dolly. now i have my truck so i can weld the hooks back on.
