Ok, I've finally updated my Flickr reel ( https://flic.kr/s/aHskWB7qDb ) with a few shots of the pressure switch and the contents of the rather large lunchbox sitting on top of the 5hp motor. The box contains 3 capacitors from Dayton. I'm wondering if I should replace them seeing how I can...

The weblink shows all the pics on the photo reel so far. The first is of the pump and motor, The second pic is of the badge. I tried posting single pics but still can't understand how to imbed. I tried clicking on the little pic icon (here in the edit window) and then copied / pasted the...

Damn guys, thank you so much for the instant support on this! It will really help me get it wired in by Friday. I posted the link for the badge photo in the second post (and tried to delete 3rd). Sorry for all the noob-ness, I just wanted to try and spell out everything I needed to accomplish...

I've been trying to post a picture of the motor badge for 30 min. I think I'm just going to pull a few teeth out instead. I think it will be less painful lol.

Here's the photo album link for this project (hosted on Flickr). I tried several times to just imbed single pictures and it's just not working anyway I've tried it. I will update the reel as I complete the project or as anyone makes requests. https://flic.kr/s/aHskWB7qDb

Hello gents, I've checked around in the electrical / lighting threads and just can't find exactly what I need. If anyone can give me a steer to any sister threads I will delete this but I may have some hurdles not mentioned in other threads so I felt this worthy of a post. I need to run a...

Ok ...well... I'm now on to examining how to craft up tool number 3. With the second tool iteration I quickly snapped off BOTH sections of my 5/16" rod on both sides of the tool. I literally sheared off one rod on each side. The 1/2" thick bar is definitely the right thing to use though as...

My 705 pump is completely apart save for just two valves on the big piston / high pressure side. What an amazing PITA to get the first three out. I first built my own tool with some 3/16" x 1.25" steel bar at 24" long which I had as scrap on hand in my shop along with some 5/16" rod I...

bsaint, I will surely do that. I've already watched several youtube vids on DIY air dryers with tall wall-mounted pipes to trap condensation. Seems to be a cheap but very effective way to go when made properly. I've been doing a ton of research over the last month on all aspects..pump, tank...

MattBlast, thank you sooo much for your 705 thread! Out of sheer luck I recently purchased an old 100gal tank and a Saylor-Beall 705 (1973 to 80 model). I got them both for just $100 but nothing is running nor hooked up so I have a lot of work to do on both the pump and old tank (and on first...
