Aldi Compessor knacked..
I've fubarred the air outlet thingy on my aldi compressor.. basically the combined air outlet pressure switch thingy where the couplings screw
into has cracked while replacing the quick coupler.
Any ideas where I may get spares from?

Mine went on my Machine Mart jobbie, pressure all over the shop, they're all cheap chinese sh1te.
I'd get a quality regulator that'll last you years, at least if the compressor goes pop you can transfer it.
I robbed a nitrogen regulator from site, but it's so big I had to get more quick couplers to space it from the reservoir. The compressor seems
to work much better now that it ever did

Mine went like that too... its so weak it cant stand changing the fittings.
Luckily it was under warranty so replaced it.

The pressure switch is available for about £10 in various places.
Here's one.
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Here you goes.. its not the pressure switch but the cast bit underneath, don't mind getting something a bit more robust as long as the outlet
thread from the receiver is a standard size??

Phone up the help line and tell them you are a competent person who can fit bits yourself and they send them out to you - there's only one bloke
who does the repairs, saves wasting loads of time and money on carriage whenit is only a small part at fault.
