red means power. 33 gallons of it.

p.s. the tools were free with this compressor.

sorry doug, but i have to put my fut down and let u know that those air tools u bought are pure crap..... their not worth the money.... go return them while u still can and the compressor is good.... might wanna run some water filtration stuff so it doesnt screw up ur air tools when u decide to get better ones... dont forget to put some oil in the system..

I have the same compressor and air tools, got them a while back right around Christmas time last year, They are still treating me right, and as soon as I get a camera I'll have some pictures up of my latest projects I used them with.

I really wish mine had come with a handy dandy carrying case like that.

i was gonna geta 3hp 15 gallon but decided that i might as well spend the extra 100 bucks and get twice the compressor. havne't had a chance to really play with it yet since i've just been doing the break in procedure and no wanting my neighbors to call the cops since its like a milllion decibels of noise.

tonight she goes to work!

Off Topic, even though you said you bought it for your car.

wow, $460? you got ripped off...

i used to work at sears and they usually go on sale for around $300... so just keep an eye out for sales in the next month and they WILL give you the difference in price
