I got it connected today and did some "programming" to set it to MINIMUM performance - a little too simple and confusing a method I think  :loco:

It had just a 3/4" hose on the output and I held it in my hand and turned it on  :D :D :D

Wav, what a sound ... like an F-16 with afterburner on full throttle !  :drool:

My ears was nearly hurting so I turned it off after 5-10 seconds.

Now I'll try to mount so pistol so I can shut off the air and see what the compressor will do - hopefully it will power down pretty fast or else I have to press the emergency stop  :scratch: :scratch:

KSor

Looks like a very good instalation. You certainly should have enough air for what ever project you might come up with. Thanks for sharing it with us.  :D :D

Cheers  :beer:
