I scored this today from craigslist for $50, its a 26 gallon unit.
Other than being filthy dirty (I cleaned it up a little) I think it was a good deal.
Being that this is my first oil lubricated belt driven compressor, (previous were oil -less pancake type) I'd like to know what would be proper maintenance on this thing. Since it is a used unit, what are some things I should go over before putting it into garage duty? Any of you guys relocate the drain valve to a more convenient location or will it defeat the purpose by not allowing water to escape. Its final location will probably be underneath a workbench.
