Hi Brian,

I found on my Haskel that you really need at a minimum a 2HP compressor with a minimum 50lt cylinder. On my compressor i can adjust the cut off. You will also need to replace the standard regulator that comes with the compressor and fit a ball valve and filter along with high flow fittings on the hose. You want to allow for high flow rate which the ball valve allows. I found working pressure was important, but not as important as a allowing for a high flow rate.

Cheers

John
