You can move a compressor w/a BX

[Tommy V]

My new air compressor arrived last night. I picked it up at the trucking depot because I did not want to try to unload it out on the state highway in front of my house with the driver waiting for me to figure out how to do it. I put the pallet in the loader and strapped the top to the hooks on the bucket. The tractor lifted and moved it with no problem. Shipping weight was 655 lbs.

Nice Job. Very innovative use of the FEL!!!

 

[radioman]

very nice! I see you got a matching paint on compressor as well! What kind of a compressor is that ? It looks like a heavy duty type and I want one!

That's not bad using a loader (according to the Kubota web-site) with a lift capacity of 518 lbs.

Nice looking compressor too. It even matches your tractor.

The compressor is an Eaton brand. They call it a Polar Air. It is 5 HP, two stage. You get to choose vertical or horizontal and choose the color. I choose to match the BX.

Hey Tommy... Nice compressor really love the color - never seen an orange compressor,
I know your gonna love it, hope it works well for you! I noticed in your pictures you fly the flag on your wall, being a veteran of the U.S. Navy I really appreciate it when I see someone who cares enough to display the flag. Because you have the flag "flying" in your shop I would like to bring to your attention the proper way to display it. Here is a web site to help you, Flag Rules and Regulations please look at number 8. No disrespect to you! Just thought since you are patriotic enough to display it you may want to take a look at this site.
Thanks from a Vet!
