There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
One minor initial annoyance: The tank charged perfectly after the break-in; but as soon as I turned the regulator to pressurise the main line, the all the air bleeds out from what feels like the back of the regulator knob, and line pressure is stuck at 0.
I searched for a solution online and didnt find anything; Rather than just return the unit I took the black faceplate off, charged the tank for a few seconds (10-20psi) and had a feel around as I turned the regulator - it appeared the air was coming directly from the base of the regulator knob; I discharged the tank, slipped a small flat blade under the retaining pin pushing it out, away from the barrel (you can see it as a shiny dot near the base of the knob) and fully unscrewed the knob.
Inside I find a grease covered spring, and under that a plastic valve cap; I gently lifted both out with a pair of needle nose pliers and it is immediately obvious why the valve is leaking - the O ring that is supposed to be around the base of the floating value is sitting loose in the bottom of the chamber.
To fix it: Extract the O-ring and check for damage, mine had none - so I wiped a little of the excess grease onto it and put it back onto the bottom of the plastic valve; put the value in the base of the barrel, put the spring back on top of the value; and the knob on top of the spring, and screwed it about halfway down. I pressed the retaining pin back in and turned the knob fully counterclockwise to check it was properly secure and re-assembled the unit.
Power-Up; tank charges, turn the regulator to varying pressures from 20-130 the outlet pressurises.
A 5 minute fix, saving me the return hassle.
As I said, I'm very pleased with the unit - if it had just worked I would give it 5 stars; because I had to fix it I'm giving it 4 and I'm leaving this review with my fix in case others have a similar problem and feel like fixing it themselves.
The usual disclaimers apply;
Plenty of oomph for all but the heaviest-duty uses. I wouldn't shingle a roof with it, but it keeps up with any finish work I do, and adequate for framing if you take a little time.
Others reviewers mentioned the break-in procedure. It's somewhere in the manual after pages of the usual caution/warning stuff. Wouldn't have known about it otherwise (you'd think they would put an advisory label over the power switch, or something visible like that.) Anyway, it's nothing more than 'open the drain valve and let it run for awhile' deal....but given the early failures a few other reviewers had, I'll take DeWalt's advice.
Had it for a month, and have used it several times. All in all, another terffic DeWalt value.
It is quiet! As others have spoken it would have been nice if they had put rubber feet on the backside so when you stand it upright it has a padded rest.
I will update this with further info as it becomes necessary.
An update 6 months later: Still working just fine, no problems and it is a delight to have on the job as it is easy to transport and store. Nice to have it for the trim work I do.

Reviewed in Mexico on November 15, 2020
最近、米国式クイックカプラーを日本式のカプラーに変換出来るアタッチメントを見つけたので購入してみました。コンプレッサー本体の米国式クイックコネクトへ、差し込んでみたところ、ピッタリで、お尻には日本式カプラーがついているので、国内向け差し込みがキチンと収まり、空気漏れもなくエア工具を使えました。国内用の道具を使いたい方へは朗報かと思います。価格も3000円程度なので便利ですよ。私は米国式で行きますけどw。
本当は2ガロンタンクの同社モデルがほしかったのですが廃盤になってしまい、このモデルを購入しました。
騒音や振動音に関しては、言われているほどではないのですが、静かな部類だと思います。
夜のアパートの室内では論外でしょうが。
タンクの容量が小さいので予備タンクを用意したほうが良いと思われます。すぐ運転が再開されますので。
タンク容量と供給空気量の関係から、ヘビーな用途には向かないことを理解すべきです。常圧のネイラー(フィニッシュ)などであれば問題なく作動します。
ユニバーサルモータなので50/60Hzは関係なく使用できますし120Vの電圧も問題ないようです。しかも起電が小さいので冬の寒い場所でもブレーカーに対する負担は少なく安心です。
問題は米国式クイックコネクトになると思います。当然日本規格のものは接続できません。
私は¼インチ産業用(インダストリアル)のカプラー、コネクター付きホースを購入して使用しています。
3種類の規格に対応しているクイックコネクトらしいので、差し込んだあと多少遊びがありますが2日ほど放置しても空気漏れが殆どありませんでした。米国規格も日本と同じでいくつかの規格は適合しません。有名なミルトン社のカプラー/プラグのスタイルで言えば所有している「Aスタイル」は合いませんでしたが、自分が購入した7.5mホースのプラグ形状から言えば、「Mスタイル」は適合すると思われます。「Vスタイル」は試していないので不明です。もしかしたらいけるかもしれませんが確信はありません。
もしかしたら本体のカプラーを日本規格に変えてしまえば良いかもしれませんね。本体に切られているネジの規格が合えばですが。
レビューに多かったレギュレータからの不具合は、私のものでは問題ありませんでしたし、規定圧力できちんと作動します。
注意点で言えば「英文説明書」にあるように初めて使うときは「ドレンコックを開放して、レギュレータ圧力を0にし、15分運転させた後レギュレーターを締めて規定圧力まで上げた状態で運転が終了するか」を確認することが必要みたいです。
まだ1ヶ月を過ぎたばかりなので耐久性に関しては評価はこれからになりますね。
当方は日本製の小型コンプレッサーを所有しているので使い分けをしていますが、DeWALTが初のコンプレッサーで、日本で使いたい方はコネクター部分と先端ツールをどうするか思案の為所かと思います。
追記
手持ちのミルトン社のAスタイルも装着できました。新品なのと、初めでだったので差し込みとロックがうまくなかっただけの様です。
レギュレーターで規定の圧力まで充填して2日放置しましたが問題になるほどの空気漏れもありませんでしたので、Aタイプのセットが問題無いと判断しました。
I can't tell you how much money this has saved me over buying those compressed air cans for cleaning dust out of PCs.
