Air Compressor & Tank

(click here to see all club equipment)

To make servicing our aircraft & tires more convenient, we purchased a 21 gal / 125 psi compressor from Harbor Freight.  We have also purchased a portable 5-gallon yellow air tank to service the aircraft tires.

See / click on photos below

The black bag attached to the compressor holds some air tools such as a tire inflator and an air blow gun.

In the gray bag attached to the yellow tank you will find an electronic tire pressure gauge. Please use this tank and gauge to service the tires.

-Use the red wheel to OPEN the valve to the inflation hose.
-Please shut off this valve when done servicing the tires.
-If the yellow tank gets too low, it can be recharged using the large black compressor. The yellow tank will take up to 125 psi as delivered from the black compressor.

Taking the yellow tank to the aircraft is so much easier than dragging an air hose half-way across the hanger. We think you will like this approach.

Please be sure you return all tools to their associated bag when you are done using the compressor or air tank. See attached photos.
