thanks for the video. It was a great tour of the parts. I still can't find the answer to my question though. I want to use the tank to fill balloons in the back yard, can I fill the tank to say 124psi, and then set the regulated hose to say 10psi, and use it to fill balloons but not have the unit plugged in? Nobody wants to tell me if I can use the air compressor when its not plugged in just to use the tank to blow air through the hose. thanks!

@AroundTheHome1

9 ай бұрын

Good question! Of course you can use it unplugged. It just means the tank will not refill when it gets low. You will just use it until the compressed air runs out, and there is nothing wrong with that when you are not using tools that require a set pressure. And 10 psi or 15 psi sounds perfect for balloons. I said or 15 because it may be hard to get it right on 10, but you know you have the right idea.

One question- Do you want to "empty" the main tank after each use before you put it away? Any other special "start up" or "wrap up" tips - order of switch, unplug, empty tank, etc? Mine is an old Coleman Powermate but much in common. I had to test switch and valves to figure out but this helped confirm. Thanks for making! I watched a bunch of trial and error repair vids (which were helpful in their own way) before I found this simple intro, which was what what I was looking for! ("Why don't I know how to do anything practical?") Some of those have a lot of views, and their just screwing around, so I bet this kind of intro tour is what many are seeking. I prob don't need most other vids but I'll hit "subscribe" as way of saying thanks again!

As long as you are regularly emptying it like in this video you are fine. And it all depends on how often you use it. If you use it a few times a month, then just empty it every month. Now, if you don't hardly use it but maybe a couple times a year and you are in a very humid climate, then I might suggest empty it every time you use it. Hope this helps.

@AroundTheHome1

11 ай бұрын

Ok, that helps. First unless you are just needing to shoot like 2 or 3 nails, yes keep it plugged in and on while you are using a nail gun. Second, the tank does fill up to 150lbs, but you should have the regulator set lower then that. Each gun should list a max psi on it, normally very close to the air coupler. Those guns probably have a max of 110 psi and running it higher then that will damage the diaphragms. Also you might not even need the max psi. I normally find that using 16 or 18 gauge nailers I normally run the psi around 80 to 90. That all depends on what you are nailing together. These are trim nailers, so installing pine or mdf trim should be easy for that nailer. If you are installing oak or some extra thick trim then you will be maxing out the listed psi for that gun. I am not sure on those guns specifically, but many do have a depth adjustment on them as well. If you are having trouble with the proper depth, then check that as well. Hope that helps.

I have the same one. Great for trim work or cleaning stuff off

That's is a good question. First I would tell you to double check what the manufacturer says about your specific model. Now this is what I personally do, you can do what you want. I just turn it off and leave the remaining pressure in the tank. This is just the way that I grew up around shops, both mechanical and wood shops that would do the same thing with their compressors. Depending on how humid it is and how much we used them would determine how often we would open the drain plugs. ( video for that kzread.info/dash/bejne/qXyc2dqNedLQkco.html ) After getting used to your compressor you will know how often to drain it. Hope that helps.

Thanks for the questions. Let me see what I can do here. Ok, it is ok to attach the hose first and it is easier to attach a hose when the compressor is low on pressure. But you can do it after as well. As for the pressure pot.. Honestly I have never used one so I would first say do what the manufacturer says. But if it works the same as a portable air tank, which I would imagine it does, then it doesn't matter if your compressor is on or not when you hook it up to fill it. Hopefully that helps.
