One of these come into my possesion as part of an ebay deal,it has no tank and the compresser outlet is via the handle of the trolley it is mounted on,it is a heavy item belt driven from an 1.5 HP induction motor,fitted on the handle is a pressure guage and a relief valve set at 50psi,underneath is another item which is either a drain or another safety vv,the comp is made by Air Industry Developements,the model of the comp is an FP5, would this be any indication of its delivery capacity,the chap I got it from said that it used to have a Michelin Man on it but no doubt that is on a truck somewhere,is this worth restoring cosmetically? mechanically it is excellent and runs very quietly [incomparison to my "modern" comp], anyone got a Michelin man they want to sell?As I said this is a chunky bit of kit and must weigh in excess of 30kgs,so any info /thoughts welcome,will try and get a couple of pics posted later,
Cheers
Chris
