Bought a new compressor

Well, I bit the bullet and bought a new compressor. I got an Ingersol Rand 80 gal 5 hp compressor. It has an 18.5 flow rate at 90 psi, and it should keep up with my air tools, the little craftsman I have had no way of keeping up, I would only get about 30 sec of good air pressure, and had to stop and wait for it to pump back up. I now need to get it wired in and I'll be set. I sure wish I had taken some electrical classes, the 220 wiring is beyond my electrical know-how. It sure was fun getting the thing unloaded from the 4x4 truck, I had to call for some help, and used the assistance of a cherry picker.
