I Am Glad I Have This Air Compressor
By James D. 
Dallas, Texas
Purchased 11/25/2014 | 
Review Posted 08/02/2016 
review 1 image 1
I was on this site searching for a larger ac when I saw the reviews left for this machine. I an sorry to say I do not leave reviews as often as I should.

I bought this 18 months ago. When it arrived the tractor trailer driver lowered his lift gate to the level of my Ford Expedition. I pushed it into the back of my truck. I cut the shipping box off in the back of my truck, where this machine still is today.

I am a professional auto detailer. I use this machine to drive a Tornador. A tool used to clean car interiors.

Many days when it is 95 to a 100 outside this machine runs sometimes for 5 hrs without stopping.

There is not a day that goes by that I am not shocked she is still running. I knew nothing about air compressors when I ordered it. But because of how well it has performed, I have purchased other DeWALT air tools.

I feel God looked out for me the day I ordered this fine machine.

READ THE MANUAL. I followed the manual instructions for break-in. Then changed the oil to Royal Purple ac oil. Royal Purple reduces friction thus lowering the operating temps.

Some of you reading this may think this is a paid review. So I went outside and took a picture of it in my truck.

I will never buy an air compressor that is not a DeWALT. Plus I run this from a Champion propane powered generator. Something Steve at Air Compressors Direct does not recamend. But here she is still working like a champ.

My DeWALT
By LaVerne K. 
Council Bluffs, Iowa
Purchased 10/05/2012 | 
Review Posted 12/27/2012 
When the DeWALT air compressor was delivered, I started it up with no problems but it continually leaks air.

I called DeWALT and they had me perform some cleaning of the unit but to no avail. It leaks all the air out of the unit in a few hours. I have my old Sears compressor in the corner and it holds air for over a month.

Teflon tape on any threaded fittings may help keep the air from escaping. You can also call DeWalt toll free at (877) 362-4271 to request the closest Warranty Service location to your zip code.
