Big Quincy

[ToddG]

My cousin showed me the compressor he brought home. It's a big-un! By the way, he's 6'7" and has to reach up in the picture. It's at least 8' tall. Also has a 7.5hp single phase motor. Talk about a dream compressor!

Pressure lubricate, split intakes, 7.5 hp. Should be solid for a long time. 23 cfm?

That is a big-in.

I hope he has it bolted down.

 

[ToddG]

Probably bolted and strapped. Earthquake country....

What model is the pump? Looks like a 340, possibly? Vertical tank quincy's are always a bit dicey.

Nice grab! Is it new or used? It still has the factory oil filter on it. Could be a sign of a lack of maintenance...

Used, but very little. Shop closed down. He said it was a bear to move even with the pump removed....
