Does this model say "Emglo Compressors" below the "dewalt" on the tank? Recent orders: was there a date of manufacture on your tank? was it old?

My compressor is 4 years old. No, it does not have Emglo. Works very good for a mid-power compressor. I have used it for framing, roofing, and everything inbetween but trim work or finish work. I have a PC pancake that is easy to move around. For non production trim work, is use a Paslode 16ga cordless. Back to your original question. The compressor is a good mid-power machine. It will run one framing gun, two to three roofing nailers, all kinds of 15ga, and up..

No. I have had this model for three years without any problem. Unlike Mr. Blake, my compressor runs quietly. One recommendation - when not in use unplug it. I have had past problems with compressors due to electric surges. Your question though raises my curiosity - why such an inquiry?

No sign of "Emglo Compressors" anywhere on outsides of surfaces; no date of manufacture; don't know how old it was when I bought it, but it looked new. The first one I received from Amazon was broken, then repackaged in a new carton. Amazon replaced it with one that was not broken and looked new to me. It has worked well for me, but is exceptionally loud in spite of the low noise banner on the sales signs. Check directly with DeWalt about the Emglo label.

Sorry Liz, I do not know. We have not had any problems with it and it works great. Has from the start.

They are available from customer support on the Crane company's website. Mine leaked after a minor drop. The tank is pricey. Part + shipping cost about half of what a new unit costs.

Mine was too man. However it works perfect. I know I was thinking someone used and returned it. Not the case to. That oil stinks right. The reason is they put oil in it test it then drain but during shipping it gets upside down. Don't worry just put on level surface and add oil

Hello Rich. What is the original compressor you are replacing? The J7 is the trade channel the compressor is sold under.

For the first time/ new to the trade person this is a good question. " they assume we all know a air compressor is needed. that being said I would visit you tube and do your homework. all your questions should be answered there. its what helped me a great deal. pay special attention to the cutting heads and consumables. the more you know the longer they last. also study what kind of regulator you may want. this one works for a short time but you get what you pay for. good luck have fun.

Not sure what your question is. Just FYI we and our approximate 3 months and one of the cooling units went out . I went back and forth with the factory about having-it repaired. I could not find a repair person to fix it. Thank God for Amazon. The gave me a refund after restocking fees, picked it up and packaged it for me. One of the sticking points with with the factory was I did not keep the original package it came in so I was on my own to get it packaged for shipment. I bought one for a few dollars more with a compressor,

No, it is not the refrigeration compressor. It is the water cooler itself. To put it bluntly, it sucks.

MFG Sticker on mine is long gone so no help there. The tank was USA made (one of my buying reasons). All the other parts are cheap imports. As for parts would recommend Tractor Supply or other farm supply store.

If I recall correctly when I purchased mine well over a year ago I had a leak problem with the drain valve at the bottom of the tank. Called Rollair and they shipped me another valve and that fixed the problem. The compressor may have a small issue to fix but in my opinion it's well worth it. I'm considering buying another one for back up.

I bought my unit from CPO Bosch. It was shipped with oil in it which leaked all over.. The unit is an OUTSTANDING compressor and I am very happy with it. Despite oil leaking all over it. Make sure and follow break in instructions to insure proper use.

Thank you for confirming my suspicions. I ordered mine quite a while ago and was wondering why more specifications weren't shown. I thought this "oversight" might have been deliberate, allowing different pumps to be provided under the same listing. Both pumps I received were rotary type and worked very well. Either type can have trouble if the diaphragms or seals are incompatible with the fuel. As an amateur mechanic, I would say the decision for your use would be based on the one that was easiest to install. The usual advice is to mount the pump as close to the fuel tank and as low as possible (pumps push much better than they vacuum), particularly if vapor lock may be an issue.

So most everyone sees these bubbles as a problem? I miss them having switched from a pair of simple power filters. I have the eHeim intake on one end of the tank and the output dumping down into a bubble wand for a long strand of lots of bubbles. The fish - tetras, mollies, platys, loahces - tend to congregate on the intake side of the tank. Not cool?

I have "2" 2.5hp elcheapo compressors plumbed together and they work fine.I adjusted the pressure switches to be simultaneous as best as.They run all my air tools and I am a qualified mechanic of 40 odd years albeit die grinders you have to let the air build up on big jobs.The cheaper the item the more you need to look after them but so far so good 5 years now.I only use them at home, if you have a work situation multiple users of high consumption then you cant escape having to buy a good compressor.

I've had mine for months, the gasket seems fine. What can happen is that air escapes if the seal on the compressor, for lack of a better term, is not seated properly. I run the bead that contacts the container under the tap to moisten it. This insures a proper seal with no air escaping. As an aside, gaskets can be hsd very inexpensively.

I have had great success with the Caswell tank sealer in metal and Fiberglas tanksI am not sure what plastic tank you plan to treat but if there is bubbling under the finish could be other problemsWhat make, model of motorcycle tank do you want to treat and is the tank painted?Or is it a tank like the Malcom Smith Desert tank where the color is transparent and moulded into the tank?Thanks and please get back with me

Have not had any problems with my unit. I do not like to keep air in the tank for any extended time due to condensation build up and possible rust inside the tank. My compressor is stored with drain valve open. It is the quietest compressor I have ever heard and has always worked for me. I have had the rolair for a little over a year now.
