Does anyone have anything bad or good things to say about the shoebox system ? Other than they are slower than other units ?
I got mine used and has pressure problems. Which I was not aware of. It went up to 1150 and kept pumping and pumping without going any higher. I soaped it and found one leak at a steel line connection and fixed it.
Now it goes to 2150 psi.but will go no higher. I am just deadheading into a gauge on a hose for testing. Resoaped and can find no more leaks.
I am bamboozled. If the cylinders were bypassing you would think there would be a leak at the rear of the cylinder where the piston rod goes in and out.
There is no air bubbling out there either.
Mine is super quiet. It is an F8 with belt drive and felt oiler system.
The pressure cutoff is the old type where you adjust cut off pressure with a blade type screwdriver under a sliding shroud not the allen set screw at the back.
The only thing I have not done is disconnect the pressure cut off switch and slide back the shroud and soaped the brass adjusting screw.
I am using a shop compressor with a water separator and separator filter combo.I am mechanical but this tool. I need a little advise.
If this posts double spaced I apologize I can't get it to delete the double space..
