by Hitachi  30-day satisfaction guarantee and a limited one-year warranty on parts and labor Exceptional air delivery 5.8 gallon tank handles a wide range of applications Line regulator with gauge 3.6 CFM at 90 PSIfound in EC10SC's reviews: A GOOD LITTLE COMPRESSOR - THIS IS A GOOD COMPRESSOR FOR THE HOMEOWNER/DIY-ER WHO WANTS THE POWER TO RUN NAIL GUNS, BUT DOESN'T NEED THE SIZE REQUIRED BY A PRO. A GOOD VALUE ESPECIALLY WHEN BUYING THE PACKAGE DEAL (COMPRESSOR,NAILER,HOSE). DOWN-SIDE: ITS AWKWARD TO CARRY, THE WHEELS DON'T ROLL VERY WELL ACROSS THE YARD, AND THE SINGLE FOOT DESIGN HAS A HABIT OF SINKING INTO THE DIRT. ( NONE OF WHICH MATTERS IF YOU LEAVE IT IN THE GARAGE AND ADD EXTRA AIRHOSE INSTEAD. |
| 2 HP Electric Master Series Compressor | Emglo M790-HC4V | |

by Emglo One-year warranty Rugged cast-iron cylinder High-profile gauge panel Delivers 3.6 cfm at 125 psi Powerful 2 hp electric motorfound in M790-HC4V's reviews: Defective out of the box - I was very excited to receive my Emglo M790-HC4V air compressor today. After I installed the oil in the compresor crankcase and turned it on, the motor hummed loudly as though it had a shorted winding and refused to turn the compressor. After close examination, I was surprised to see that the compressor / motor unit is mostly a white metal casting that is secured to the chassis with self tapping screws. This low cost "cheap and dirty" method of securing the unit to the frame makes me wonder abut the quality of the internal design. |
