The Shed: Compressors 3

Parts 1 and 2 of The Shed series on compressors looked at types, applications and choosing different systems.

In the final part, Mark Camilleri looks at installing and maintaining systems. First he weighs up the pros and cons of belt vs direct drives and then looks at setups for air line systems.

Maintenance is important and looking after your system is a matter of regularly changing the oil, cleaning the air filter and periodically removing water condensation.
