I'm selling my old single phase compressor, a few months ago I had a new fuse board put in the house, and since then, trying to start this compressor trips the breaker!
I took the motor off, and looked at the wiring, but couldn't get any joy; even when trying the motor with no load.
So, I took the plunge, and bought myself a smaller compressor, that runs straight off a standard 13a socket, and is portable enough to put in the boot of my car when needed elsewhere.
This is a very old bit of kit, and has always been a bit asthmatic, it could do with a good service, and obviously, I have absolutely no idea whether the motor is ok, or needs some re-wiring, or a new capacitor. (it's got three!!).
I don't know what the litre capacity is, but it's approx 1.4 metres long, and has a circumference of about 1.2 metres. So any mathematicians out there ?
If the motor is no good, but you already have a smaller compressor, you could just join the receiver to your existing, would help when blasting for instance. That's what I'll do if I don't sell it.
Price is £95 firm, but no guarantees at all, you take the chance.
It is VERY heavy, and with wheels welded on the bottom is quite unstable too, so you'll need a van and straps to take it away.
pm me here if interested, I'll be online again tomorrow evening, and at least once a day after that.
Here's the link to my photobucket album, note, as it is now standing outside, I've left the motor off, rain and leccie motors a good combination do not make !
