Info? Devilbiss 6560 compressor

Feb 04, 2004 5 Replies

I'm being offered locally an air compressor. I'd dearly love to offload my oil-less Crapsman noisemaker and replace it with a quieter oil-sump unit.



Here's the deal



Devilbiss 6560



6.5 hp
60-gallon stand-up tank brand new $300

I can't seem to get much information on this. Looks to be a fairly light-duty unit, as far as these things go. Anyone have this model? Should I jump on this or wait for the next good deal ($550) on an IR?

I have no history whatsoever on my Gardner-Denver 2" bore x 2 1/2" stroke compressor other than the fact that I paid $3.00 almost two years ago. Gerry :-)} London, Canada

I have a four year old Debilbiss 6.5 hp 60 gal upright and have been very pleased with it. I don't use it on a daily basis but it has been put to the test doing everything from mechanical air tools to spray painting. I believe that I paid more than that four years ago. I would buy it. Rich Russell

That would be $3 CDN ? Want to couble your money?

No Way! I'm having way too much fun playing with it. Must have close to $75.00 tied up in it now, what with safety and automatic control, etc. Gerry :-)} London, Canada
