Got A Compressor
#8
I have an almost identical compressor, only it came from a skip needing the pressure switch cleaning out (full of sawdust but that was too much hassle for its pervious owner!), it's really useful, I use it for a little paint spraying, lots of inflating tyres, dusting off / chips-out, 3" cutoff saw power and with brake cleaner in the "paraffin gun" as a first step before working on oily motorbikes before taking an air impact wrench to them Big Grin

It's important to drain the tank regularly, a corroded pressure vessel is also known as a bomb... When I got mine I put an USB endoscope (£9.99 from a Chinese gentleman, also fits through spark-plug holes and has its own LED illumination) through the blanking plug on the end and gave it an Inspection, not knowing how well it had been looked after, before changing the compressor oil and tidying it up.

Enjoy, you'll keep finding more and more uses and accessories for it!
Rules are for the obedience of fools, and the guidance of wise men...
