If you have a range and or dryer running from that panel you could run a test before breaking the bank on gear you may not need.:hide:
Here are the two manuals for your comp.; https://www.aircompressorsdirect.com/manuals/pumabeltdrivemanual2014_2.pdf

In reading through the 1st you'll find that the pressure switch is integral to the comp., and that the 230V plug is not supplied but must be purchased from another retailer.
You can, as your option, hardwire the comp.
Neal, not quite sure what you are suggesting here. Please elaborate.If you have a range and or dryer running from that panel you could run a test before breaking the bank on gear you may not need.

I have space for a few more breakers and the # 6 awg wire is free. My biggest fear is killing my family by taking electrical short cuts. I will stick with 60 amp
Those are the manuals I found online but they don't specify the model # the OP has.
Also the OP has to go with 230V (240V) as 208 is only available with 3 phase set-up.

Im all for free. Not sure if you mentioned what kind of #6 wire you have?
I don't see an issue using a 50A plug and receptacle in this case. How is this different than using a 15A GFI in your kitchen or bathroom and putting it on a 20A breaker?
