ROLAIR Compressors

WARNING - Compressor died after 2 hours of use. Motor seized (yes it
was full of oil). Company expected me to drive 300 miles for repairs
and would not even consider shipping new motor (which would have cost
about same as repair). This company sucks and so does their equipment.
Live and learn.

ROLAIR is only a re-marketer for the standard chiawaneese compressors.
I have three 2hp compressors, all identical, all claim different
manufacturers.

Did you call ROLAIR or the company your purchased it from.

These little guys only need about 4-8 ounces of compressor oil. Too
much will cause hydraulic lockup with bad results. Gotta keep them
level too.

Tell me you did not fill the motor with oil.
