I have a speedair 3 HP compressor. I need to change the voltage from 220 to 110. The diagram is missing and I couldn't get any help from customer service. Can anyone explain how to switch it over. Or maybe someone has one like it and can send me a copy of the diagram.

Bill,
    Go to any business that rebuilds motors and they can tell you all you need to know,just take the information off the tag on the motor. Good luck.

that process is a function of the motor not the compressor. It depends on the motor and the brand.  Take off the wire junction box cover on the motor and it should be under that lid.  many times it is printed on the motor it self, Which i assume  you checked.Not all motors can be switched. It will tell you this on the motor tag that is on the motor. If you have checked all of these then call the motor mfg, not the compressor mfg.
