DeWalt 60 Gallon Air compressor. Purchase, install and 1st power up.

Publicado 2021-02-15
Finally pulled the trigger on a new larger compressor for the shop. I'm happy with it so far, hopefully it holds up over time.

    Northwoods congrats on the new compressor. It looks like the one at TSH I'm thinking of buying. About your regulator setup. it is recommended to use a flex (whip) hose from your tank to the rigidly mounted regulator. It's suppose absorb vibration from the A.C. to the Reg. Prevent leaks down the road. A ball valve, then flex hose, then regulator. Don't take this as a critique but more of a warning. The wiring from the A.C. to the receptacle is very unsafe. SO cord, which is flexible should be used instead of Romex when utilizing a plug, instead of hard wiring to a box. It also provides better conductor insulation . Example: You have an " uninsulated Ground" (Green) running between two hot legs of the 220 connections in the plug assembly. Romex's Ground is uninsulated. SO cord provides insulation on the ground Green) conductor. Hate to see ya get hurt or burn down your shop!
  • I have the same compressor and I really thought that you was going to help us on how to install the fittings too. 😔 Great video btw.

    I was watching the video and you are not showing the operation or the pressures. What are the cutout and cutin pressures set for the factory?
  • @melvinnewton141
    Solid pipe from tank to dryer bolted solid to the wall , with the compressor vibration something has to give , needs some kind of flexibility between the two

    Hey I just got that same compressor, just wondering what kind of deal did you get on that I just bought mine yesterday on a deal and paid 599.99 before taxes. Haven't hooked mine up yet need the 240 plug lucky my Dad was an electrician in the Navy for over 20 years. Like the video thanks for sharing God Bless and have a good one.

    How did you put the off n auto cover back on? I had a time getting it to line up with that white thing that goes in the pressure switch and today it jumped off n it won't go back on right, I have tried ever way possible n when I turn the white thing the compressor doesn't start up. Thanks!

    Some people use hose coming out of the tank leaving enough hose in a loop not kinked then to regulator. The compressor should be anchored to the floor. They do sell a drain hose to run from bottom of tank with a shut off. Also after running it for 20 min. the compressor oil should be changed for break in.

    Can you go into detail about the WD40 and how to do that
  • @olblu8746
    Sounds like my friend Bitto poured the concrete floor. Is this compressor 3 or 5 horse power? What was the price? Thanks.
