Using the aforementioned Craftsman Professional 6-hp oilless compressor, cfm
rating 11 @90 psi, with a D/A sander, the compressor would stop altogether
for about 15 minutes. Then it would presumably cool down and start again.
It was only running the one sander, albeit more or less continuously. Is
this just exceeding the duty cycle?  This is normal?  Any way to reduce or
eliminate this, short of buying another compressor?
