It was way past time to push my DeWALT DXCM301 (AKA DXCMLA1683066) 30 gallon air
compressor into service, so I finally installed some:
Vibration isolation: to keep it from running around the shop
After cooling: to reduce compressed air temps to extra more water
Water separation: to keep water out of the tank
and...
Solid wheels: because I just don't like pneumatic tires on shop equipment and to further stop it
from running around the shop
Remote tank drain: because you just have to have a remote drain... lest you never drain your
compressor...

Separator ► What I used is a Parker 07F series filter. There are many different styles within that
family. I suggest you look up the style you'd prefer in the catalog linked below and then search
eBay for one until you find a deal. The mount for the 07F series is PS843P.
