found in C3551's reviews: Performs to expectations - The manual was easy to read and follow. I specifically wanted an oil lube compressor for durability, and this model fits that requirement. For handyman work or specialty trim nailing, this compressor is ideal. Porter Cable lacks quality control - After following the breaking procedure, I noticed that the regulator wouldn't let out any air. (Also, the compressor being so quiet won me over and I was willing to overlook few minor problems in order to keep it.)
I contacted Porter Cable through email for suggestion, since nothing from the trouble-shooting section of the manual hinted on what might be the problem. I will receiving a replacement compressor tomorrow and I will post how that worked out, at that point I will be adjusting my rating for the product.

found in CPLDC2540S's reviews: A- compressor except for the regulator - I've been searching for a portable compressor for a couple of months now and near the end came up with three to chose from: the Emglo 55155, a Hitachi dual stack and this PC. Other compressors did meet these, but what draw me was the oil lube system that permits you to use it on uneven surfaces.5max) to not trip the circuit breakers, filtered intake (not output though) for longer motor life, shrouded motor for airflow from fan and good manual.

found in MAC700's reviews: Great Product....Bad Manual - A well put together compressor that is wonderful for the weekend warrior. This compressor is well built and should last a long time.
My only beef is that the instruction manual is pathetic and has not been updated. I assume that Makita used to ship this item with air filter attached because there is no mention in the manual that you have to install the filter. It is not difficult to perform this procedure, mind you, but it would be nice to have it mentioned in the manual under the section on setting up the compressor. C'mon Makita, hire an English editor for a day and update your manual! Oh, and include some pictures with your parts description! In addition, you may mention that you have to remove the temporary oil cap and install the separately packaged cap (also not mentioned in the m. Very good - The compressor is packed very well without any damage. One draw back is that its manual is not well written. After running it over 20 minuates, I discovered that I did not install the air filter. The manual did not mention it at all. It is as advertised - If you're considering an oil less compressor,,, don't. Read the manual and follow the break-in and maintenance procedures and off you go.
This unit is not supposed to be a "contractor's" compressor. If you need a compressor for big job sites, buy an appropriate unit. Reviewer from Arizona - I am pleased with this Makita's compressor. Comparing it to other light weight/low capacity compressors I had before the engine noise is not that bad. For instance the air filter is place in an aluminum container whereas most other small compressors use plastic containers instead which can easily break off. I think they could have done a better job in writing their user manual. Great little compressor -
As another poster mentioned, the manual does a poor job of telling you how to break-in. Be sure to fill with oil and install the air filter before starting. Serious PITA, but cost was minimal and repair works fine.
All in all, a great little compressor, and the best choice if noise is a concern. Great little compressor - I have had this compressor for a couple of weeks now and really like it. I chose this model over the very popular oil-free pancake compressors mainly for it's compact size and low noise level.
The unit is compact, but much heavier duty than similar Cr*ftman compressors I saw at Sears. It came with a good owner's manual and a bottle of oil. I would recommend this unit to anyone looking for an occasional use compressor and does not want something large or loud. Great compressor, but check the box thouroughly before signing for delivery! - After working with a friend's older version of this compressor for the last eight months, I decided to splurge and get my own. If this compressor is anything like the older model, it's going to last forever. It looks like someone must've dropped it, and from a pretty good height! One of the legs was bent about 2 inches, so the compressor would rock when set down. Fortunately, the compressor itself (external tubes and gauges and whatnot) are all fine. It's annoying, but I don't want to go through the exchange process and be without air for another two weeks.
The startup process is fairly simple. The manual doesn't explain what goes where when you open the box, but it's reasonably self-evident. There are two plastic plugs on the compressor that need to come out. One covers the oil filler, and one covers the air intake port. You replace the plug on the air intake port (topmost plug) with the included air filter, and you replace the oil filler plug with the included oil cap. Then, open the air release valve at the very bottom of the air tank and run the compressor for 20 minutes. Check the oil level periodically, of course!
On a related note, I also bought the Campbell Hausfeld MP520010AV air tool accessory kit to get me started. Quiet, Solid, Well Made - I wanted a portable compressor for using my nail guns at old houses, and was ready to replace my antique mastodon shop compressor. I was thinking I may have to buy two compressors, most portable units were too loud for the shop. A few weeks ago I bought a Ridgid brand "oil-free" compressor at Home Depot but it was so loud that I couldn't use it indoors, even covered with a chunk of old carpet. It had good air flow.3 CFM is higher than many of the 75-pound twin stack compressors I saw. To reduce cycling in the shop, I attached my 5-gallon air tank (the kind you use for putting air in a flat tire) to the tank side of the regulator with a T and snap coupler. I'm sure this is somewhere in the owners manual of things NOT to do.like don't use the compressor in the bathtub. It's a large, high quality compressor mounted on a small, portable tank. You'll get really spoiled if you're used to a noisy oil-less compressor.

found in MAC2400's reviews: Mac2400 Very Good - I received this compressor in excellent condition - no damage in shipping.
Easy to setup; however since I've never used one of these I had to read the manual very careful to make sure I understood all terms used. The manual could be significantly improved by adding some figures with arrows (I had to refer to the parts exploded diagram several times). Compressor great, but has a couple of issues - This is a great compressor and is highly recommended. However, you need to be mindful that this compressor is _very_ heavy. It _is_ quiet, as far as compressors go. The other issue is that the manual is not very good. Perhaps Makita will work on making a manual that matches the quality of the compressor. Very pleased - This is my first aircompressor, and I just received it yesterday so can't vouch for long-term quality, but I just wanted folks to know that it has ZERO damage. The air filter was packaged in a heavy plastic baggie along with the oil and manual. The thin paper manual has a few indentations from the wingnut on the air filter pressing into it, but the compressor unit itself is showroom clean. great compressor - I had no problems with the condition of my new compressor. The noise level is like advertised (fairly quiet). I was not impressed with the manual, but it was satisfactory. For the volume of work I will do, this is plenty of compressor and then some.

found in D55151's reviews: excellent compressor - Two months later, I open the box, take it out, and realize that the plastic cover is broken into many, many pieces! I was very disappointed! There was no visible damage anywhere on the compressor or the box it came in. So I opened the manual, and called 1-800 number for Dewalt. The guy said he is going to mail me the new cover right away, express shipping (I told him I need to use it in 3 days), I could not be without compressor. 15 minutes later the same guy from Dewalt calls me back, saying it would be better if he just shipped me a brand new compressor, express mail of course, as long as I agree to ship my unit back, free of charge. Now that's what I call customer service! I got the new unit, hooked it up, used it (and continue to use it) extensively (it's my only compressor), and it has never let me down. It may be a little loud, but I don't know which compressor is quiet. Dials are easy to use, drain plug as well, and it does not leak air.

found in D55155's description: com Review
At just a foot high and less than two feet wide out of the carton, this compressor was quite a bit smaller than we expected, so to be fair, we quickly lowered our expectations. The joke was on us, though, because this little powerhouse just doesnt quit, and we learned that you cant judge a compressor by its size. Emglos half-century in the compressor business is evident in this model, and with a couple of small exceptions (well get into that in a minute), we dont think anyone could make a finer piece of air power. Now, this may be a plus or a minus in your book, but we liked the fact that the compressor is factory set to power on at 100 psi an+d shut off at 120 psi, and the cycle time was under 15 seconds.) It has air aplenty for two nailers at once, and with that fast recovery, the job will get done in no time.
In balance, this is one of the best compressors weve seen for the size, power, ruggedness and incredible portability it offers. Heres to a great pairing of two great toolmakers.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Product Description
2 HP, 4 Gallon, Electric Single Tank Hand Carry Compressor, 4.
found in D55155's reviews: Good machine, but some packaging and assembly issues - To my dissatisfaction, it arrived with a broken air filter and some loose items rolling around in the air tank. No, it wasn't the air filter parts, it was something metalic actually inside the closed tank! Amazon referred me to DeWalt who referred me to my local service center.
Thanks to Amazon's incredibly fast and hassle-free process for returns, I had my replacement compressor less than a week later. Unfortunately, it too had a broken air filter. But since everything else was fine, I bought a filter locally (DeWalt's replacement has yet to arrive) for $10 and kept the compressor. Another surprise with the second shipment was the inclusion of oil, a dipstick, instructions to add oil, and a product manual. This was not in the first shipment and is REQUIRED before starting the unit which is something that as a first-time compressor buyer, I would not have known to do.
