J'ai acheté cet article, en vente heureusement, en 2014. Je l'utilisais pour gonfler mes pneus d'auto et enlever la poussière sur certains outils ou instruments. Très peu utilisé. Utilisation, entretien et entreposage selon les directive du manuel. Très propre encore aujourd'hui.
Il y a quelques semaines j'enlevais de la poussière sur un de mes outils, soudain le son du moteur a changé, la pression a cessée d'augmenter puis plus aucune pression.Je ne recommanderais pas à un ennemi. Valait 59.99$ après rabais de 80$. Made in China, utiliser, jeter.
Not the best unless you plan to pin one or two brads once a year.

I've had this thing a long time since I first needed a compressor. Louder than a chainsaw, and took a while to get to 100 psi output. Usually had to bleed the tank and let it charge again before I was able to drive a few 1 1/2" brads

Bought a mastercraft 3 gallon compressor about 3.5 years ago. I used it for tires and cleaning parts. Once I tried it on car tires I new it was a very lite duty as it needed to refill the tank 3 to 4 times. It was used weekly and never abused. Today I was using it to clean parts and it had to refill 3 times and on the 4th time the connecting rod on the piston broke. I am writing this review to say do not buy this product ever. Buy a compressor large enough for your needs and then some. I should have lol. Compressor worked but is just too small for almost any use in my opinion.
No, I do not recommend this product.

A: le notre fesait la meme chose c'etait que le tuyau qui le relie avait une fuite ou lon bloque au compresseur notre probleme cest regler tout de suite
Q: Run time
It seems at max pressure, air will bleed off from the spring loaded release valve, power will not be switched off.
Can this compressor be run continuously, like 05.hr, 1hr?
10 years ago
2 Answers
A: I'm not an expert on air compressors, but I would imagine the duty cycle to be rather short on this unit. I would think that a constant run for an hour would overheat the pump, and cause catastrophic damage somewhere inside.
The shortfall of some of the oil-less pumps is that many can't be repaired. You have to replace. And the cost of the pump is about the same cost as a new unit.
If you need the air power, you probably should look at a much larger unit that can supply a steady output without overheating.
That's my 2 cents...!

Q: When the tank is full?
can I transport the system, to lets say a camp site? Sorry, first compressor.....
10 years ago
2 Answers
A: I think you're fine transporting a full tank to a camp site, the tank is made to hold the pressure. Just make sure that the valves and such - the little bits and pieces - are protected from impact by other gear.
The bigger problem is moisture in the tank. Normally on the job site, you want to drain any moisture compressed into the tank a couple of times a day. But that's assuming you are filling the tank numerous times as well.
I would think that filling the tank for use later, using the compressed air and then, when done, opening the drain valve to remove any build-up moisture, you'll be fine. Just be sure to store the unit without any compressed air in the tank, when you are all done with camping.

Q: I bought this air compressor recently and I was wondering if I can run it outdoor for multiple hours in extreme cold (or hot) weather such as -30ᴼC.
12 years ago
2 Answers
A: It will run fine at that temperature so long as it is in a warm environment before you take it outside. If you try to start it up after being in freezing temperatures for extended periods it will strain to start up. Keep it warm start it and it will run great even in the cold.
